    Default PayPal hack and more

    Hello,

    Thanks to EMS I actually got the PayPal working as needed, of course I had to make some modification and add a few hack, here is what the thing does.

    1) If poster email address exist in idx_user table
    a) The poster is invited to login
    b) Once login and within "My account" he can post a new link

    2) If poster email address does not exist in idx_user table
    a) A new user account is created for that user in idx_user table when the new user post his link.
    b) The new user receive an email requesting that he validate his new account
    c) A new username and password are generated by the hack
    d) Standard email is send about the new link

    3) Whithin "My account"
    a) Member can change email address all the appropriate email address will be change in idx_user and in idx_link
    b) Member can edit/delete all his links
    c) Member can upgrade to "Sponsor level any of his link for a set number of months or as a monthly subscription
    d) PayPal is the only payment gateway supported
    e) Member can add new link
    f) Optionaly you can display your link sponsor on every page of your directory

    If enought Idexu user are interested I will try to put together the links involve, as for the cost I will have to contact EMS about it.

    Does it also use my "User Control Center" MOD?

    Do you have a URL that we can look at it?

    Good to hear from you; I was just thinking of you the other day. I have gotten away from INDEXU. I just decided to work on my LinksCoder program. It is coming along nicely but I don't have any plans to sell it. I may try to install it at my INDEXUHELP.COM site just to show folks.

    I've just gotten so use to my LinksCoder program that I doubt that I will ever use anything else. I am converting one of my old Gossamer-Threads Links 2 ( written in PERL. YUCK! ) sites to it so I have been busy. Hopefully, I will go live with it on Nov 1.

    I haven't posted on the INDEXU forum on purpose. I just check in ever so often to see if there is anything interesting.

    I enjoyed working with INDEXU. too bad Dody has abandoned. The 3.3 beta came out in May and it is now Novemver.

    As for the paypal mod, I'll take a look at it. I'm just not in the mood to support it or get it running on someone else's site. Just too much work. I'm more interested in making money from my own sites.

    I'm amazed by this.

    In comparision...companies such as Microsoft use people as guinea pigs for their software all the time, but you can be rest assured that Microsoft takes all the feedback seriously and utilizes it to make a better product.

    This is something that a lot of software companies do.

    I hope that if anything that Dody sees this and allows this to sink into his mindset.

    Dody is so lucky. I hope that he is appreciative to everyone here on this site or shows it, because from what I'm seeing it appears that a lot of people simply feel neglected and I don't know if this is a good recipe.

    Indeed I feel a bit of sorrow to see all you great people who are dedicated and have been commited to making something better and to see such feeling and emotions.

    I think that I will have to look at all this and rasterize this information in the best and most realistic way possible as for the long-term vision of rolling with the Indexu software.

    Hopefully Dody can drop a positive note pertaining to this.

    Indeed feedback, reputation and word-of-mouth is so important on the Internet.

    With all due respect, I am extremely sensitive to receiving any forms of negative feedback as a company for once bad feedback hits the Internet......it spreads like wildfire.

    I hope that this does not happen for Indexu.

    I think you meant to post this here: http://nicecoder.com/community/showthread.php?t=3099

    Actually, it is not so much you as it is me. I'm just a little burned out right now. Give me 2 days and I will have it ready.

    Ok...

    I really do understand, we all have the best of intentions but sometimes annoying things like personal life get in the way!. I dont really want to reinvent the wheel so anything finished or unfinished would be a great help...

    I just need to incorporate the latest changes on my production site into a distributable form.

    I'll send it to you guys in an email. about 1 or 2 days.

    Yep, I am still around... While I no longer using INDEXU for my sites, I still like to play around with it. It is nicely coded.

    I sent the paypal MOD to kservik and inspireme. I should be able to send it to you later today.
