Need script ran once a month

maxpig · Oct 17, 2008

I need a script ran once a month when a customer is billed. How do I go about doing this? Can I set a cron job when someone creates an account? Any suggestions would be very very very welcome.

Thanks

maxpig,

Whereas a cron is "timed based", an aMember plugin is event based

http://manual.amember.com/Creating_New_Integration_Plugins

an example would be the subscription_added hook:

This hook will be called when user subscription status $member['data']['status'] changed to active (1) for product with ID = $product_id. In this case, you have to add (or update) member record in your database, or execute some other actions regarding this event. Please note - because user may have subscriptions for several products, your database may already hold this customer record. Then you should update it with new password, for example and you should unlock customer record if necessary. It is important to understand this hook is not necessary called for every payment. It is called only when user status for product changes. So, when user already have active subscription for product, and he orders this product again, this hook will not be called. If you need to call a function for every member payment, have a look to "finish_waiting_payment" plugin hook.
