Role Expire
Security covered
Role Expire is a simple module that allows administrators to set and control expiry dates of user roles. A common use case for this module is to implement magazine style subscriptions where somebody purchases or receives access for a fixed period of time.
At the moment it implements the following functionality:
- Selecting a role (or roles) on user_profile_form triggers a textfield (or textfields) where admins can enter expiry date for selected items.
- Defined expiry dates are displayed on user's profile (visible only for owners of the profile or users with proper permissions). This can be altered using standard theme_ or hook_user() functions.
- Role expiry dates are controlled by Cron, so it automatically removes any expired roles.
- Simple API is provided to set, clear or retrieve expiry dates for given roles and users.
- Views module handlers are provided for displaying, sorting and filtering expiry dates inside views (per role).
- Set default expiry duration (12 hours, 1 day, 3 days, 4 weeks, 3 months, 1 year) for each role in the edit role screen, so that on receiving a role a user will keep it for the stored time span. The expiry duration can be a strtotime-compatible string (like "last day of this month"). Handy for Subscriptions or temporary access.
