Just got imported from 6.5.5 --> 7.5.5 and I was previously using the MyPaymentPal software to keep track of my "member" subscriptions...with 7.5.5 I notice there is a subscription/donation feature built in.

So, is there anyway to import the payment/billing info from MyPP to the Threads software?

Unfortunately not. When the original importer was written, we didn't have the subscription feature built into threads yet, and it hasn't been revisited yet.

Yikes...is there a work around, possibly? I'd rather not manually each and every one of our 400+ subscribers/donors if I don't have to...!

Honestly, I'm game for just about anything right now! We previously had our UbbT 6.5.5 site setup with MyPaymentPal where when a user donated [subscribed] they recieved a special "member" icon in place of their forum title {newbie, addict, etc], and it would also allow them to post in the classifieds section via the group permissioins. Looking at the subscription part of 7.5.5, I don't even see an option for me to *manually* enter a user's subscription?

Bummer...because a lot of our donating users are paranoid about online transactions and prefer to use the good old US mail...and these same users are picky about making sure their member icons show up! grin

I'll second that - many of my subscriptions are done via the USPS.
