PayPal Add-On - Feature Set

The PayPal Add-ON itself won't create posts or users, but it will integrate with the existing post creation capabilities so that posts are only created after a payment is received. If you are creating a post using a PayPal Subscription it can also change the post status or delete the post if the Subscription is canceled.

User Registration will come later as an Add-On that will integrate with the PayPal Add-On so that users can be created only after payment is received. The User Registration Add-On won't be ready when Gravity Forms 1.5 and the PayPal Add-On are released in beta due to the fact we are adding features to Gravity Forms 1.5 we weren't expecting to add (Multi-page form capabilities).

The PayPal Add-On itself functions like the MailChimp and Campaign Monitor Add-Ons where you tie it to a form, map the fields and choose settings. Some of the settings are things like only creating a post after payment is received, what to do with that post if payment was a Subscription and it was canceled, only send admin notification when payment is received, only send user notification when payment is received, etc. So yes, pay to post will be a reality.

We will be supporting one time payment/service payments, donations and subscriptions with the PayPal Add-On.

We are wrapping up development on 1.5 and the Paypal Add-On in the next few days. We will probably release the beta sometime next week.

Yes, it uses PayPal IPN integration to make the entry as paid once payment is received. It will also only create a post after payment is received.

Anytime now... finishing up some basic documentation and last minute tweaks and changes. So later today or tomorrow.
