June 24, 200818 yr I have a customer who needs a paypal integrated membership system with tiers, bronze, gold, silver. Their current site is in PHP, can anyone recommend a good system on a budget?
June 24, 200818 yr http://www.amember.com is superb. It really depends what you need, is this for accessing member only areas of the site?
June 25, 200818 yr Author http://www.amember.com is superb. It really depends what you need, is this for accessing member only areas of the site? hmm, the brief is a little vague so far. The site currently has the option for a user to pay to give a quote, or receive one. The client would like to introduce a membership system whereby you can have individual memebership, or company membership, the individual requests a quote, the company provides one I am assuming. And different tiers within that, though I'm not clear yet as to what extra functionality a gold subscriber will have as compared to a bronze member for example. This software looks fairly capable though, the kind of thing I am looking for, do you think?
June 25, 200818 yr It might work for you. Basically you set up access to files and folders on an account level - each account type being a separate purchaseable product. Eg... Bronze can access /membersA Silver can access /membersB Gold can access /membersA and /members/B So in essence you set up your sites member areas by folder. You then protect each area with .htaccess or a PHP include. I think you can protect individual pages as well with the php include. Another option would be to use Expression Engine as it has impressive member group capabilities - EE also plugs into aMember as well.

There are so many out there it's good to get a recommendation, happy web designing, Phil.
