Has anyone experience with setting beginning and ending dates for board members to be able to access a board?
For example I would like to establish a "trial" membership on my board for 7 days; or 30 days or 180 or 365.
And if a period of membership had expired, the member would have to perform some new registration or some sort of action that would inform the administrator to renew his access
I tried various searches... maybe there is already a MOD Or topic thread?
to give someone a week of access and then he/she must take some action to stay a member
Perhaps the MOD you are describing would perform the function of just "alerting" when there is a new member? It seems the option I currently have is to insert an administrators approval of a new member...I merely want to be infomred. this is a separate fucntion I hope to build
Everytime a member joins my forum I get e-mailed. I can't remember if that is a base Snitz code option or if that is a MOD I installed. Perhaps someone here knows.
there is a funciton that allows the administrator to approve a new member...Ryan, is that what you were describing? Maybe I can start with that code if anyone can give me a pointer

I welcome offers from experts in the SNITZ code to offer to develop some code which I will reimburse on some pre agreed terms. My email is gtw@gtwassociates.com whatever is developed could be made in to MODS
I am using the SNITZ forum basic structure to provide access to some protected database content... I am not using the forum posting features at all. Now I want to "charge" subscribers for access to the protected content...
So I need a way to have subscribers "pay" for various periods of access...and integrate this into the SNITZ membership file
All will recognize the basic snitz forum structure... have revised the registration process to focus on IPR matters... you all can use user name test password test to access the source documents...or can try out the registration process to see how I have adapted it
now I want to begin to charge for access to the database...going to have to get some accounts with visa and AMEX and figure out how to include that...the idea is that feew will buy a certain amount of "time" for continued access
Or you might reply there is a whole better idea how to do what I want to do
welcome replies to my email or to this message thread
one detail about board memberships... I have discovered that a single user name may access the board simulataeously from different computers or IP locations
For example I have worked with some users and found that three different users have been able to log on using user name "test" all at the same time.

Yeah, that is true. I guess it was never intented to be otherwise.
You might take a look at the Spooky Log-on system at http://www.outfront.net/spooky/login.htm I use that for the Members only area of my Association Web site. It is ASP coded program and does have a expiring membership! I am setting up a Snitz board now on that site and debating whether to include it under Spooky protection.
Could be you can adopt the ASP code to run in a Snitz Mod. The author fully supports the program on a forum and might be amenable to allowing that.
