Member Subscription to Groups for certain amount of time

First topic message reminder :

Not sure if it is already possible but i would like to have a time scale for members to stay in some groups

I.E a paid up member of my site would go in to a group that would allow them to view extra forums but after a 12month period when the membership runs out automaticaly get removed from that group

I vote: YES

Damn good idea and would be VERY useful on my forum

Voted yes but there needs to be the same thing for ranks. If the member has a special rank matching the group, then an administrator will need to remove the rank at the same time as the member automatically leaves the group, which actually makes it harder.

Another good feature to be added in the forums if ever this will be accepted.
Sometimes these new ideas (along with the others) make me feel that I have been doing everything on my forums manually.

Yes thats true, but at least it would be one less job to do because personally once someones
subs run out ive to got manually removed them from the group AND remove their rank.

I vote yes. Good idea.

Bump.

Bumping to move this suggestion to the first page.

I believe that a system like this, editable, in which the administrators could create groups with a determined time of permanence, would be useful in Forumotion forums.

I think it would be useful for Forumotion users, especially with regard to monetizing the forum by selling VIP members.

Be able to sell access for a certain time to restricted areas of the forum. Thus, the administrator could add a member to a VIP group of 30 days of permanence, without having to control the expiry of each member individually and having to manually remove them from the group.

If you have a group that, when you add a member, after 30 days it is automatically removed, it would be very useful for administrators.

This example was about monetizing with VIP members, but it would also serve to highlight a user who won a forum event,

If one of the prizes was that the winner of such an event would be highlighted for 7 days, with a green name. This way the administrator could create an ''event winner'' group and when adding a member, after 7 days he/she leaves automatically, without the administrator having to remember to withdraw.

This suggestion would even help improve sales of the platform's service packages, many administrators are not willing to pay for the Advanced and Premium packages, but if their own forum generates income, as in the example of VIP access sales, I believe they would be more willing to use the money generated on the forum to invest in Forumotion platform packages, generating an increase in sales of Advanced and Premium packages.


Best regards,

voted yes , i think this can be useful
