Automatically Determine Membership

Greetings!

I am currently working on a new WordPress website and am considering purchasing S2Member and PayPal Pro. However, before I commit to purchasing, I wanted to ensure that what I am trying to accomplish is possible with the system.

I am currently creating the website for a fitness center using WordPress. The center has multiple types of membership (General, Unlimited, and Trail Membership), in addition to subcategories for each of these types (Seniors, Students, as well as Community and Congregation rates). At first count, there are at least a dozen different plans and price points available.

Is it possible to have customers complete a registration form first that gets their contact information, but also asks them questions to determine which rate they qualify for? Once they complete the form, a limited number of plans appears for them to choose from. If this is possible, what would I need to do/know to accomplish this?

Thanks,
David

Thank you for your inquiry.

While this isn’t default functionality, s2Member does leave this door open for a developer to set up. You can use s2Member’s Advanced PHP Conditionals to decide when a User should see different forms.

See: Video » s2Member (Advanced Conditionals)

One other (lesser documented) api function that you’d find useful here is s2Member’s get_user_field() function. Find info on this here:

That’s about as far as we can go with custom code. If you need further assistance, we recommend http://jobs.wordpress.net, or another freelance web site where WordPress® experts are offering their expertise through a bid on your project.
