Code and architecture
I am actually using the akeeba subscriptions which seems to be the ancestor of RD subscriptions.
I need to see the code, but if it is built on FOF (the akeeba's framework), i would like to replace it with the native Joomla Framework's functions.
By doing that we would be possibly much closer to J4 as well.
This is also something i discussed with Robert (the original developer), for me that is not feasable as I have to account for my time (running a businessCollaboration and inclusiveness
Going public in github would be a plus, as it may attract more developers.
I see a bunch of extension providers using it.
If we do that, we should define some roles and responsibilities.
Cool, recurring is definitely a plus, but that involves also a architectural change as the way payment is done currently is based on the (very simple) checkout process.Features
I see some value, in adding a user option to make a subscription recurring with automatic payment.
Also would need better reporting. Comparing a date range with a previous date range. E.g. The current week with the previous one.

RD-Subscriptions is a Joomla 3 extension that doesn't completely follow Joomla 3 API and coding guidelines (e.g. forms (user registration, checkout, etc.) and view templates are custom and not based on Joomla API, so these should be rewritten from the ground up, including all the jQuery stuff on these forms)
So how are you thinking of it?This is also something i discussed with Robert (the original developer), for me that is not feasable as I have to account for my time (running a business

Basically the subscriptions. Would be fine something like the google analytics that compares date ranges between them.As for the reporting, on what data would you like to see that?

This is exactly the issue, and not only for this extension, but for Joomla as a whole. Apart from the niche (subscriptions) the extension market for Joomla is getting to small to make a living. And there are also a lot of abandoned extensions still being sold that are not helping eitherSakis Terz wrote: Personally i consider it difficult to gain a lot of money from such an extension, because of it's nature, the size of that market niche and the existing competition.
But it is much worst to have no descent subscription extension for B2B in Joomla.
Good to know and I will keep you informed via this thread and my newsletter. If you think of anything related, please post here.Anyway, i am interested in the way you think to go on with that.
Please keep me informed.
