How to hide a paid subscription but keep it active...

[BirdOPrey5]

I was asked how an Admin can hide an active subscription.

There is a "Subscription Permissions" option in the Admin CP that will let you hide subscriptions by usergroup however I cannot confirm if this will keep recurring subscriptions active.

Below are instructions for a template edit that will keep it active for sure:

First go to your phpmyadmin and look at your subscriptions table...

Find the "subscriptionid" of the subscription you want to hide, it's a number.

Now edit your templates, edit your subscription_availablebit template.

On the very top add the line:

VB 4.x code:

<vb:if condition="$subscription['subscriptionid'] != 4">

(where 4 is the subscriptionid number you want to block)'
at the very end of the template add the line


</vb:if>


VB 3.x code:

<if condition="$subscription[subscriptionid] != 4">

(where 4 is the subscriptionid number you want to block)'
at the very end of the template add the line


</if>


Repeat for all styles you have.

Now when you look at your subscriptions page that subscription should be hidden, but still "active" so it will work.
