Now there is a truly automated billing solution for PostNuke sites. With DreamAccount
and the PostNuke Module, you can eliminate the need for dual logins, htaccess,
and manual intervention of any kind on your PostNuke site!
This module will give you the ability to sell subscriptions that will control
& automatically update the user's associated group in PostNuke. You can
then configure PostNuke to grant specific privileges, blocks, and read/edit/add
privileges only to users to that group.
DreamAccount will update the PostNuke database to maintain the user's group
setting each time billing is run, so once the subscription expires or billing
fails, their access will be dropped to the default level, which you can customize.
It will cause the following database queries to be mirrored on the DreamAccount
database when run in PostNuke:
- Email Update (via member area)
- Password Update (via member area)
It will cause the following database queries to be mirrored on the PostNuke
database when run in DreamAccount:
This module will also check the PostNuke database when adding new members
in DreamAccount, to be sure that the username and email address are unique and
not already registered in PostNuke.
You can also use the included utility script to:
- Copy all your existing DreamAccount users into PostNuke*
- Copy all your existing pMachine users into DreamAccount*
* Only recommended if you have a clean install of either DreamAccount or PostNuke
with no user data in one.
Also in the pipeline for future release, are modules that will allow you to
control the following software via DreamAccount:
- Xaraya
- Invision Board
- FreeRadius
- Ticket/Chat Systems
- Email List Management Software
- LDAP
- And more!
After using DreamAccount for only a few days, we were getting a higher volume of clients signing up for our services, and site memberships. Our site now offers instant payment, and member services which for practical reasons, we were unable to offer before.
