Hi,

Usually my users are already registered and logged in when they purchase a subscription, since I need to hide/show content based on their Joomla group, I also need the user group change to take place immediately after succesfull purchase.

Will this be the case or the user always need to log-off and log-in again after purchase for the action to be triggered?

Another question would be about manually activated subscriptions: If I activate a subcription manually, actions will be triggered immediately? Or the user always need to log-off and log-in again?

Thank you

P.S. I know I can use [PAID] tags to check user subscriptions instead that Joomla group, but it causes issues when I try to hide/show long or complex part of the code, I am using instead RegularLabs "Conditional Contents" tags, which seems to work without issues even when hiding/showing very long and complex html code... and "Conditional Contents" needs to check the user group.

No. this is done in background seamlessly.

He do not need to login or logoff. Actions will be tryggered before any next page of your site will be rendered.

Of course. in your case Groups change is the most convinient way to go. [PAID] is little bit more techy but more flexible in some cases.
