Sign up payment
I have just tested Gforum by enable payment on signup using worldpay. When Worldpay is enabled, the URL of validation becomes https://...... instead of http://

I understand that worldpay does not require the use of ssl server. Hence why the validation url change to https:// instead remain it as http://

If I remember correctly, it has to do with the callback URL setting in the WorldPay administration panel; although the URL can be overridden, the "http" or "https" part is based on what you have set in your configuration area. I don't have an active WorldPay account, so I can't give you specific details - the following comes out of the GForum manual:

WorldPay
  • In your Installation Configuration menu, you should set the “Callback URL” field to contain your gforum.cgi URL.
  • The “Callback enabled” checkbox must be checked.
  • The “FuturePay callback Enabled” checkbox must be checked if you are going to be using your WorldPay account for recurring payments.
  • If the “Use callback response” checkbox is checked, the user will be shown the worldpay_receipt.html template on WorldPay’s site upon completion of a payment. If the checkbox is not checked, WorlPay will direct the user elsewhere upon completion of a payment (this location can be defined in the Payment Page Editor section).

In case this doesn't help you, I've also sent a PM to you of someone who might be able to assist you with the WorldPay configuration.

Jason,

I have enabled signup payment for the forum. When I test with expired account by trying to login, the error of the login page will merely show in red "Your account has expired". I want to include a link on the same page to allow expired users to renew the user account. What URL should I use ?

The link should be there (in login.html) already - it is:

Code:
<a href="<%if payment_direct_used%><%cgi_root_url_https%>/<%endif%>gforum.cgi?do=payment_renew;user_username=<%escape_url user_username%>;<%if payment_direct_used%>https=1;<%endif%><%hidden_query%>">

Got it. Thanks
I was using the older template and hence the missing link.

By the way, I wish to test out Donation setup and after enabled it, I do not seem to see any donation button across the forum. Which is the template that contain the donation button.

It's in include_header.html. You might want to restore that template - it has quite a few changes to resize the other links across the top appropriately when donations are enabled.
