    I have butterfly marketing script but is to much of pain and to compicated.

    I want to use amember but I dont see One Time Offers as a feature? How does it not have this? Isnt that a very common and popular feature wanted in a membership script?

    I know it is possible to do in amember because I see other users doign it such as as SourceCodeGoldmine.com

    ANy advice?

    Thanks
    Mike

    The way I teach it is to place the OTO in the thanks.html page of amember.

    HI David.... but dont they get the thanks.htm page after they already signed up? The point of a One Time offer is to get them to signup to a better package so it needs to be before the order is placed.. The OTO would redirect to another product.. Is there a way to do that in ammember?

    Perhaps creating a false signup page, that then brings them to a 2nd false signup page where they then get the OTO or continue where they are then actually entered into the amember system and then to the payment system.

    However in the 2 false pages the info is not entered into amember.

    How about we pool resources and...

    How about we pool resources and ask Alex to build a custom OTO plugin, I am willing to participate.

    What do we want with the OTO, please add your wishes and ideas here.

    I will start:
    - OTO as a plugin
    - product setup just like regular product in amember, but now we can define each product to have a special OTO price as well.
    - when we setup a new product we can specify the connectd OTO, with a special OTO price
    - we can even link OTO's so the first OTO leads into the next, how many links do we want?

    I have not worked with OTO's but have run into them and have many times upgraded to the bigger offer, so I know from my experience as a buyer that they work.

    Let me know what else is needed for the OTO and we can get a request to Alex to build.
