Customizing login form etc

Hi.

I am liking the look of the free S2 version, so well documented. Before I buy the PRO version however I want to confirm that this is the right plugin for me.

My site is basically an ecommerce site. I’m using either WP-ecommerce or jigo for the shopping cart.

The membership on both of those plugins is hideous. It’s the plain old wordpress form with the URL “wp-login.php”, which is embarrassing.

I want to customize the entire membership experience to have the following features and would appreciate if the experienced staff can confirm that S2 allows me to accomplish all of this:

1. URL should be something like http://mysite.com/login or http://mysite.com/my-account (not http://mysite.com/wordpress/wp-login.php
2. The HTML login form should follow the look and feel of the site — including header and footer from the main site theme. So that it looks like it’s a part of the page! Not the ugly only-form that comes up right now.
3. In the registration page, I want to customize the look and feel of the form too. Maybe have the fields appear with my own CSS design (I’m using a responsive html5 boiler plate).
4. The registration page should have email subscription preferences to MailChimp mailing lists, but also a “manage account” page should have the ability to unsubscribe and subscribe back easily. Not just during registration.
5. Jigo uses the default WordPress users to show “my account” page. THis shows all the latest orders of the user. I want this to be available in a tab to the user apart from customization of user profile. So if I have a Page for this purpose with Jigo shortcodes, how do I also include s2’s profile modification HTML via either some shortcode or some php code?

I’m comfortable with PHP, HTML5 and CSS. Just need some simple guidance on what/where to edit.

If S2 meets the above criteria, I’ll have no problem buying the multi-domain license in a jiffy!

Thanks!

Hi Phoenix.

Yeah, s2Member Pro can do most of it, the rest requiring some customization on your part.

You can use the Pro Login Widget via PHP in a WP page for this, so it’ll have the URL you give it and look of the site instead of the ugly default login page.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Pro Login Widget (via PHP)[/hilite]

You can use the Free Registration pro-form with a shortcode in a WP page for this, as above.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Free Registration Forms[/hilite]

You can have a checkbox to optin to your MailChimp list, but it’ll add the person to the list that you specified for his level when creating the MailChimp integration.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers -› MailChimp®[/hilite]

You could customize that with custom profile fields and a hack that gives the user a different MailChimp merge field based on those. You can try this in the free version if you want.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields[/hilite]

You can create a custom profile page using a shortcode in a WP page too. This is in the free version as well.

I hope that helps! :)

Cristian, this helps a LOT. Wow, thanks! Does this mean however that I should get the “Pro” version before I can do any of this?

Glad I could help. :)

No, you will need Pro for the Login and Registration pages the way you want them, but the MailChimp and profile points are possible with the free version.

Thanks Cristian.

For the login/register form, I’m trying to get this look:

(click on the “Favorite” button next to “Like this item?” — it pops up a nice clean window to sign in or sign up)

Another question: does s2member support social login yet? Through Facebook/Google/Yahoo IDs of users? Or do you know any other plugn that will allow that? Thanks.

Ah, yes, that’s a very nice interface for the login/register. :)

You’d have to customize to get it that way, definitely, but the registration pro-form and the pro login widget should help you.

No, s2Member doesn’t have social login, or single sign-on services integrated, but there are other plugins that do that for WordPress. Once the person is logged in with a valid WP session, s2Member should work the same.

Here’s one:

Hi,

I also want to purchase it today. I want to confirm that Can I have registration page like this

https://www.s2member.com/single-site-co/?s2-ssl=yes

I don’t want coupon and Primary Domain * section. So, when user click on “become a member” It will open this form like . https://www.s2member.com/single-site-co/?s2-ssl=yes with all payment option.

Please let me know asap.

Thank you!

Hi Ashique.

Yes, you can have a registration form like that. That’s an s2Member Pro Form.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms[/hilite]

The “Primary Domain” section is a custom field, you won’t have it in your installation unless you create it.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields[/hilite]

Let me know if you have any other questions. :)

Hello Cristián,

Thank you for quick reply. I have another question how easy would be to integrate other payment getway eg. Monaris transaction gateway?

Thanks

Dude, start your own thread. Your question has nothing to do with the original purpose and flow of this thread. Thanks.
