Reveal Contact Info (After Payment)

    Hello all,

    I have been exploring forums and Youtube but to no avail.

    I want to create a lead-purchasing site for home improvement services. So let’s say I put an announcement that I need to paint my garage. On the other side, the provider can pay x amount to be able to talk to this person through the site or easier, just reveal their information.

    I realize the payment part is prob. more ad-hoc to ask in a plugin. But for now, how can I do it even free? Where I see a ‘required service’ I like, i click, and i get contact info?

    thank you

    If we ignore the payment processing part for the time being, let’s assume a user is given a special role or capability that allows them to see contact info or whatever. The solution partly depends on the user experience (UX) you want to achieve and how secure the contact info needs to be.

    For example, privileged info could simply be hidden with CSS and exposed with a click or hover event. But since the info already exists in HTML, it’s not difficult for someone to find the information if they were so inclined.

    Or the title or teaser could simply link to a different page that shows them the information. The page could conditionally show the information only to those with the right role or capability.

    Or similar to the first suggestion, except the info is not in the initial HTML. Instead it’s fetched via Ajax and inserted into the page’s DOM.

    Thank you, sincerely. However, I am afraid my level on these matters is too low to understand what you said.

    cheers

    I’m sorry my suggestions were too difficult to understand. Maybe you should try one of these free membership plugins. They will help you manage who can see certain information.
