Hi,

I have used account expiry module on a D5 site but now I am building a D6 site and looking for a better solution.

Our perticular use-case is that we have visitors to the site (anonymous users), Potential Members (low priv registered users), Members (paid up members to a real life club, members are associated with a club and clubs are associated with a national organisation; the website is run by the national orgainsation for all the clubs) and elected committee members. A user will usually have just a single role, but elected people (quite a large % of users actually) will have more than one role.

Roles are club based ("a particular club" potential member, "a particular club" member, "a particular club" moderator, "a particular club" committee member, etc).

We are looking for a module that will remove all roles upon account expiry and assign the associated potential membership role instead, therefore removing membership privileges.

I understand that this is a complicated use case.

any ideas? I wondered if it would be possible to do this using D6 actions, cron and a few extensions, then I came across this module but I can't see any documentation.?

thanks

Richard

If I understand your issue correctly, I would go with Organic groups and several other related modules, like OG Membership Expiration. I'm not sure, though, whether you can assign the user to a different role when one of her roles expire - but I'm sure that membership.module would be a wrong choice, so I'm closing this issue. You may check Role Expire module as well.
