Enforcing Terms Agreement with Social Login

Hi,

I have implemented Social Login from OneAll on my website to given visitors a way to access free site content using their Social Media accounts, and that FYI – works seamless with s2member.

A Question-
The way it works by default, it is one-click, and they have full access to all the free content using the log-in widget I have on the website. How do I somehow improve/add to the process so that I can also get them to agree to my site Terms & Conditions like one can do with s2member using custom fields on the Registration Forms?

Has anyone implemented this? or any ideas on how using coding or process one could implement this.

Thanks,

Ganaxi

Hi Ganaxi.

Well, what you could do is have a conditional that checks if the user agree to the terms and if not, present him with them and have him agree before he can do anything else while logged in.

You can use get_user_field in the conditional. http://www.s2member.com/codex/stable/s2member/api_functions/package-functions/#src_doc_get_user_field%28%29

You can probably do this with a must-use plugin, the wp-loaded hook and the wp_redirect function.

I hope that helps. :)

Hi, Cristian,

Thanks for your response.

This looks outside my skill level right now, but I will deal with it when I can.

However, if there is a simpler way (for a non-programmer) to functionally achieve the same outcome (i.e., force users that used Social Login to agree to Terms & Privacy Policy), please let me know.

I’ll ask Jason if there’s a simpler way when registering users with a social login.

Thanks, Christian.

If it is conditionals, I can do it. However, I am not yet conversant with using functions, hooks and filters. And my understanding would be that a significant portion of your customer-base would be in the same boat.

Thanks for the heads up on this thread :-)

If the plugin “Social Login from OneAll” is providing a separate interface for registration; you would need to contact the developer of that plugin and inquire about this possibility. I would ask the developer if it’s possible to use a custom template; and if so, that would be a good road to follow I would think.

On the other hand, if the plugin integrates with the default WP Login/Registration form like s2Member® does, you could simply add a new Custom Registration/Profile Field with s2Member® and make sure it’s associated with “all” Membership Levels (or at the very least, with Membership Level #0) for Free Subscribers.
