Hi, I need some help setting up some pay per view options. I am trying to set up a site that offer video classes. I would like the students to view the class with these options:
1) able to view the class for up to 365 days
OR
2) able to view the class up to 12 times
PS, here is an example of what I am trying to create: http://www.craftedu.com. These videos will play with a short preview and then you will have to pay to view the rest of the video.
I will have my videos hosted on Amazon S3 for security.
I currently have Nextgen gallery plugin installed and using your instructions I've created a gallery with test products. I like how everything is looking, but would like to make one change.
Is it possible, when someone clicks on a thumbnail for the video, it opens in a new window that they can then play the video?
Hope I've explained myself well enough.
WP eStore's Pay Per View option is simple:
You pay for an item, you get to view it.So, if you set the expiry to 365 days and the download counts to 12 you might be able to get what you are after but I wouldn't recommend that.
A better way to handle this type of setup is to use a membership plugin. A membership plugin allows you to protect the section of a post or page. So you can have a teaser video (30 seconds long) that is available for everyone to see then just below it embed the full video but it is only available to a member. This lets you control which user can see what and for how long and stuff.
Ok, I understand. I do also have WP eMember so that is where I would control it.
Just so I understand, I would set up a teaser video but this would not be a product in WP eStore, just a teaser video.
Then for the full video, I would set it up as a product in WP eStore and protect the viewing with WP eMember. I would use WP eMember to control who can view it and for how long they can view it.
Yes, your understanding is correct.
