User request

Directory users (mostly trade businesses) can list for free, as they're using the directory to make B2B connections.

Directory partners, software companies, and other service providers would be set up on a paid subscription, as they're using the platform to advertise their offerings to those users.

Implementation

1) Directory owners should be able to select the “signup” options. Currently, only “free signup” is available. We need to allow owners to specify pricing types for each of the user groups they create.

2) The signup form should get “tabs” with titles “Sign up as <Vendor>” and “Sign up as <Partner>”

3) Owners should be able to specify the cost & cadence of the subscription.

4) Owners should be able to specify what will happen when subscription fails/expires: hide all listings from search (so no 404 for direct links) or hide listings from everywhere (so 404 pages will appear for that brand).
