Easy In App Purchase IAP Plugin Question

I am thinking of using the IAP plugin in an app. I think the idea is that if you put pages in a menu that you want people to pay for, you can use IAP and once they make the purchase, access to that menu is unlocked. I'd like to know if you can only protect one menu, or, if I can have two or three individual menus that can all be be unlocked together with a single purchase? Thanks, Alan

Not tried it, but yes, id say its possible. say you have 3 menus you want them to purchase in 1. you'd create the 3 menu's you'd create 3 inApp purchase screens each inapp screen linkeing to seperate menu's but in each inApp screen config, you use the same product indentifier. Cant see why that wouldnt work

Thanks @bonzo I downloaded your guide - looks very good, thanks for that. I need to find the itunes connect link to create the purchase there (has it moveed?), I have the spinner issue reported here http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=BE5D39E7238FAC14C7B4E16&command=isSearching&currentPage=1&topicTitle=iap&createdBy=&repliedBy=&minViews=-1&maxViews=-1&minReplies=-1&maxReplies=-1&forumCategory= Also, I've noticed in a spearate post that there is an xib update but thecodmonsters.com is no longer there and I was wondering, does this plugin still work OK with xode 5 / bt3.0?

I know they are shutting down for Xmas but I don't think it's yet. Nor do I believe it's moved? I've not done anything with xcode 5 or bt3.0 yet. Waiting for all the bugs to iron themselves out. You do need to tweet the xib files though. On th iPad one at least anyway

Thanks for that @Bonzo. The xib files are no longer available at thecodemonster.com - are the tweaks easy?

I fin them easy as I've done a lot but wouldn't be able to explain it. You could always send your project and I'll do the tweak and send back?

Thanks forthe offer@bonzo, I'd like to, but this one is covered by an nda with a client so I can't just do it. It is also BT 3.0/xcode 5. I spotted the version of Easy IAP in the market says 2.2, might be the latest?

OK, after a few days of struggling, I finally found out what I was doing wrong with itunes connect, set it up and I have it working under BT 3.0 and Xcode 5. I have three buttons all of which are protecting menus under one purchase. The only thing I don't like is that you have to see the IAP screen and press 'purchased' every time you want to get to your protected screen. Is that an apple thing?. I wonder if you can get round it? @Bonzo, Thanks for the offer of help, that definitely encouraged me. I recently spotted a few tweaks posted by you here http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=A52DA715D2F86CA6D0CBC27&command=isSearching&currentPage=1&topicTitle=easy&createdBy=&repliedBy=&minViews=-1&maxViews=-1&minReplies=-1&maxReplies=-1&forumCategory= I think I'll have a play with those next.
