Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Hello,
This is an feature request:
Since Drupal 7 offer the possibility of creating custom fields for comments, i think it will be a nice feature to have possibility to pay-per-comment.
Thanks

maurizio.ganovelliFrom my point of view, i think that this request is more like a module apart than a new feature for pay-per-node module. For the moment the issue is postponed; I will return on this if there will be more requests or proposal of patch.

astutonetHi everyone.
I have a website for a certain type of activity and in my country, the answer to each comment can be considered a consultation and, therefore, the answers can be charged.
A long time I'm looking for a module where I can charge by the responses of comments, but so far I have not found anything.
The only thing I found was this issue.
It is very difficult to implement the charge of comments through this module? Does anyone know another solution?
Thanks

maurizio.ganovelliHi astutonet,
this module implements a pay to publish system so, if i understand well your needs, your issue is exactly the opposite: you need to have the ability to pay a user when he comments a node. I'm wrong?
Let me know.

astutonetHi blackice78, thanks for the answer.
In fact, I have the need to charge the user for each answer in the comments area.
My idea is to insert a link in the comments area that sends the user to the payment system and when the payment is confirmed, the comment field is released so that the user ask your question.
It's possible? Is there something like that?
Tks
Comment #5
maurizio.ganovelliI understand but i think that this module doesn't fit your needs.
I wondering if https://www.drupal.org/project/userpoints could be a good starting point for this.
A possible scenario:
Consider this idea only as a proof of concept.
Cheers.

astutonetI've tested the User Points module in another situation. It is an interesting solution, especially when questions and answers are made by the users of the site or community.
In the case that I bring here, there are not sales. Articles created by the maintainer of the site are displayed, and when users have questions, they use the comments area to ask your questions.
The idea is to charge for the answers, since there is a some work around that, in addition to time spent.
It's like going to a medical consultation on a particular doctor: to get a diagnosis, it is necessary to pay for the consultation.
It is not necessary to use commerce modules, because there is no product to sell. The payment is by answers and I believe that a simple solution solves the issue. But so far I have not found anything.
Comment #7
maurizio.ganovelliYou could implement a "pay per view" solution:
1. use nodes instead of comments for answers referencing questions with entityreference (entityreference_prepopulate can be useful to create links)
2. restrict access to answers (content_access or other module)
3. notify author of the question that someone posted an answer (rules)
4. create a payment form (Payment Form Field or Payment Reference Field from module payment?)
5. upon payment completion, unblock access to answer (rules)
But it is outside the scope of this module.
Comment #8
astutonetOkay. Again, thanks for your response.
I will study the case and see if it meets my needs.
