Hi there. Just purchased your module and started configuring it. The one thing that jumped out at me right away was that you could only set 1 role per subscription. I'd really like to see the ability to assign multiple roles.
Basically, what I am doing is offering 3 different role access levels via combo subscriptions such as:
Subscription 1: Role1
Subscription 2: Role2
Subscription 3: Role3
Subscription 4: Role1 + Role2
Subscription 5: Role1 + Role3
Subscription 6: Role2 + Role3
Subscription 7: All 3 Roles
While I could create more roles to match the combo subscriptions, that just makes my permissions page and ACL pages unnecessarily cluttered and complicated.
Thanks!
Fred,
This is a good idea, but I feel that this would be duplicating functionality of the Drupal Roles System. This module is intended to be a way to sell roles on a 1-to-1 relationship with paypal subscriptions, allowing users to easily upgrade, and allowing admins to easily manage them. The permissions part of it is meant to be entirely set by Drupal's Role System, following the modular approach that makes Drupal so great. The better way to do this is, like you said, to create additional roles for the combo subscriptions. It may be a bit more cluttered on the permissions page, but once the settings are set, how often do you see that page? Hope that helps.
Sincerely,
Leighton Whiting
