This plugin is used to monetize wordpress blog content using PayPal. It is designed to sell your knowledge.

Features:

  • Post/Page can be set to contain hidden content.
  • Instead of the hidden text user is shown a message about the action he has to take to be able to see the content.
  • Content can be set as hidden for unregistered users and visible for registered
  • Content can be set as hidden for unregistered-unpayed users and visible for registered-paid users
  • Gogglebot can index hidden content so users can search for a hidden content but can not see it. Other search engines will see only visible content
  • Administrator can grant users to access payed content
  • All the features are configurable using administration screens
  • Plugin uses PayPal IPN - Instant Payment Notification protocol so payment/content delivery process is fully automated.
  • Bonus posts. Packages of posts can be created. So what buying one post from the package all other becomes visible also
  • Price for all blog. Administrator can set price for all payed posts so what user who pays can view all the hidden content
  • Pay To register feature.

Workflow:

  1. User is exposed with a message "Please login" and a login hyperlink instead of hidden content
  2. After user logs in he is exposed with a content or a new message "Please pay" and a PayPal button
  3. After user pays and returns back to the blog he is exposed with a content

Usage:

  • Edit the posts - you want to contain hidden content. Surround the content you want to be hidden for unregistered users with [Are_PayPal_LoginPlease][/Are_PayPal_LoginPlease] pseudo tags.
  • To tax previously hidden content edit post prices and user privileges under Are PayPal administration section
