Multiple prices/currences for an item & Custom script calling action for Custom Items
Hello,
Here are two features that I believe would push this great plugin to another level.
1) Multiple Prices/Currencies - RL Scenario:
We have a single currency called CHB (CH Points). Points can be achieved in two ways;
- By work (doing something for community - like helping new users, creating banner etc etc etc)
- By donation
In a shop we offer two types of items. Ones that are available to all and ones that are only available to those that donated (mainly VIP groups and VIP features). At the moment we are limiting access to them based upon group user has - I created a group called "A-Credited" where "premium" items are only visible to this group. I manually assign this group to any user that donates and then track and manually remove it when they purchase an item/spent their "donation" points. Truth to be told, it's a cumbersome approach and sadly quite abusable- since we have one currency thus sometimes they stack donation and freebie points and obtain something. I know there's various approaches to solve this from my end of things but I think following would be a more cleaner & nicer approach;
Request;
Ability to assign multiple prices to a the same item. As in this scenario I could add another currency called CHB+ which would in essence be donation points and then simply offer same item in two different prices without cloning/limiting access .. As in current scenario there are some items we do want to offerto all but in two different prices. Currently this can only is only doable via cloning an item and/or then limiting access on per-group basis so it's not duplicated in a shop as that confuses users.
2) Custom Script Call
It would be nice if custom items would have a field where I could call a URL. A simple GET request could then be used to invoke a custom action. In our case some items are tied to various game servers, those game servers use *SQL as backend. If this option would exist I could easily write a simple API for DB interaction via php and call it once item is purchased so whole process is automated.
That's about it. I assume there's quite some work tied to request num. 1 while second one is an easy one. In any case, if either would find its way to a plugin, I believe it would be a great addition to this already great plugin.
Thank you for taking your time reading this!
Kind regards,
Nate
