Hi

Have just installed v1.03 of CBSubs and have a question which is related to the below (as is all interactions with CB currently) but maybe not totally...

As I have said before, I have a payment form up and running with my SagePay/ProTX account for taking initial memberships (more pressing than renewal ATM as they are annual memberships). I will run an SQL query on subscription start to tweak the CBSubs tables, adding them to a Plan and giving them a plan expiry date...

Whilst looking around the new installation and new documentation I tripped over the URL sub-tab on the Integrations tab. I am sure it may have been there before, but this is the first time I have seen the integration to even think about investigating it.

Now, as I understand it from the documentation, this gives an ability to put in a URL to send the user on a choice of four actions. I am interested in the 'renewal' action.

My question is to do with when the renewal redirection occurs. I am expecting, but hoping against, that the renewal redirection occurs when the user has followed the whole process:
- chosen subscription,
- entered extra information if necessary,
- chosen payment provider,
- stepped through the payment processor steps,
- been returned to the system with a successful payment
- then taken to the URL entered in the sub-tab

Is there even a slight outside chance that the redirection occurs just AFTER they have chosen to renew to a particular subscription? Allowing me to integrate my payment processor by giving the URL for the processors bog-standard form entry? Making the steps similar to the above but slightly different:
- chosen subscription,
- entered extra information if necessary
- then taken to the URL entered in the sub-tab
- stepped through the payment processor steps,
- been returned to the system with a successful payment
- allowing my code to deal with subscription update and redirect them to wherever they need to go?

Again, if I am asking a question that has been answered before, please let me know where it has been. I did do a search for URL sub-tab but it didn't turn up anything that was exactly relevant.

Cheers

THe URL plugin is new and has been released for the first time with CBSubs 1.0.3 (as mentioned in the news thread).
