    Hi,


    I have a few questions i feel i need answering before purchase (I guess it would be the Pro package):

    I have some games sites that use a normal registration to enter the site.
    The user is allowed to purchase 'credits' as a commodity used in the game
    You are able to add to these at any time.

    Please check out http://sundayleague.com to see what i mean.

    I currently use perl in the sites, but am considering using php in a new games site.


    I was womdering about a few things:


    a) I want all users to be members with full access as soon as they verify, can this be done?

    b) I want to have the ability to link users seamlessly with phpBB. (we customised it heavily for our games)

    c) I want to link users to my own game database (as i'm kind of hoping to use your package as a wrapper around my game)
    eg. upon verification, i'd like to call my own custom script that sets up the user's entry in my 'game database'.

    d) The game site will run from a series of php scripts, but i'd need to first verify that the user is logged in on every page.

    e) We use phone payment systems such as txtNation.com as well as paypal and worldpay. (Is it possible to have these plugged in the the system?)

    f) we use CAPTCHA to stop spambots etc. do you have plans for integration of this sort of system?

    g) Are we easily able to heavily customise your pages?

    h) Do you offer a service to assist integration and customisation?

    i) I have a special sort of 'member' that is a person that has made a payment within the last [ N ] days. This person has access to certain pages.
    I'd like to know if you can assist in providing the neccessary code to perform this check.

    j) I keep all the files in the same directory, so I'd be reliant on a bit of code to check auhenticity of users etc that I can insert into mt game scripts.




    Please let me know your thoughts on these matters.


    Kind Regards.

    JUnior.

    a) yes
    b) some integration is possible, you can find more details here:
    https://www.amember.com/support/faq.php?do=article&articleid=4
    c) it is possible, http://www.amember.com/docs/html/creatingnewintegrationplugi.htm
    d) http://www.amember.com/docs/html/php_include.htm
    e) it is possible as custom work, but we need to see system specifications first;
    f) not right now, but as a custom project, it could be done quick;
    g) ALL HTML output is inside smarty templates, it is very easy to customize;
    h) Unforunately, we are unable to take custom works now, but we are always ready to help with advice and answer any question;
    i) I will provide you with such code;
    j) it is better to keep aMember in a separate folder and don't mix it up with anything else; see (d)
