Paid Content Publication Feature in Drupal 7 using Commerce and Rules Modules

Job ID: 38599030

Budget: €30 – €250 EUR

Project Overview:

I’m looking for a skilled Drupal developer who can create a paid content publication feature on my site. This feature will allow users to pay for exclusive content access. The site is built on Drupal 7, and you’ll be working primarily with the Commerce and Rules modules.

The goal is to create a content type (node) that will only be published after a successful payment through Drupal Commerce. This project will require the creation of at least two Rules to handle the process. Below are the key requirements and the expected outcome:

Key Requirements:

• Strong experience with Drupal 7.
• Proficiency with the Commerce and Rules modules.
• Understanding of creating paid content features, including the ability to securely manage content access and payment workflows.
• Ability to ensure secure and seamless user transactions using Drupal Commerce.
• Expertise and recommendations on best practices for paid content development will be highly valued.

The specifics of the content types (articles, videos, e-books) that users will pay for are still being decided. Your experience and advice will help guide the process.

Specific Tasks:

1. Content Publication Upon Payment:
• Develop a workflow where users can create content (a specific content type, such as “Professional Offer”).
• The content should remain unpublished until a successful payment is made.
• After the payment, the node should be automatically published.
2. Rules Configuration:
• At least two Rules:
1. First Rule: Add the content (node) to the cart when it is created, and direct the user to checkout.
2. Second Rule: Once payment is complete, automatically publish the node.
3. Node and Commerce Order Association:
• Create a link between the created content and the Commerce order, such as a field or reference in the node.
4. Developer Instructions:
• Provide detailed instructions on how to set up these Rules, including any configuration steps for the Commerce and Rules modules.
• A video tutorial or step-by-step guide is encouraged.
5. Other Considerations:
• Handle issues like duplicate SKUs in carts and ensure content remains unpublished if the payment fails.
• The content type already has a node reference field that should be linked to the Commerce product or line item.

Deliverables:

• Working solution that includes:
• Two functioning Rules in Drupal 7.
• Integration of Drupal Commerce and Rules to manage paid content publication.
• Full documentation on the implementation.
• Optional: A video tutorial or screen recording to demonstrate the feature.

Budget:
Open to proposals based on estimated hours and complexity.

Deadline:
Please provide an estimated completion time.

By including the additional section, it broadens the scope of the project while maintaining focus on the key tasks. It also makes clear that their advice and expertise on best practices will be appreciated.
