conference registration? longshot? was created by dirtypants
I am currently a happy user of AEC, but I'm getting ready to upgrade Joomla! to 1.5 and would prefer migrating to all CB-based stuff for integration. I get that you guys can do most of the stuff AEC does.

How easy would the migration of memberships be?

The most important thing is this; you say that you can sell "merchandise" through CBSubs. What does this mean? Can you give examples? Could I allow members to purchase an education conference registration? And in that same purchase also add some workshops (paid)? Is there a "shopping cart" per se? Or just a way for someone to buy ONE thing at a time?

And in that purchase, could they have a "notes" section to tell me if they are vegetarian or have mobility issues, etc.?

Thanks,

S

I do not know about migrating members from AEC to CBSubs, they're 2 completely different systems. However, CBSubs does provide an import feature with multiple import methods.

Merchandise is simply one purchase at a time and can make as many of that purchase as they want. Most integration plugins will fire for merchandise purchases as well allowing manipulate of database, etc..

An example for your conference is make single purchase subscription, no recurring. Then set the plan to have no renewal. Set the duration to the duration of the conference, plus additional time. Then set the number of people allowed in the conference to the number of allowed subscribers of the plan. This should give you your desired results.

For the note section, no. This can be done with fields however and the fields be sent with an email by the subscription using the email integration plugin.

Can you explain this? Do you mean that I could have fields in the subscription that are sent to me in an email? I'm having trouble picturing it.

How simple would it be to create this (to simplify):


Choice (1) of:
$300 Wine
$200 Milk
$100 Water

*your choices (0 or more) with any of the above:

*$5 glass
*$5 napkin
*$5 plate


And then have someone who wants:

$200 Milk
+
$5 napkin
+
$5 glass

And wants me to know that they are in a wheelchair.

Can this be done? I'll buy today if so.

Cheers!

What you're asking is the usage of a shop. I suggest you look into VirtueMart for your situation.

Thank you so much for your continued attention.

Can Valuemart have items reserved for only members using CBSubs?

Yes, you can set items or categories to be accessed by specific groups. The CBSubs VirtueMart integration plugin will allow you to change users VM group based on subscription.
