Help with Members Addresses with s2 Pro

Hi,

We bought S2 pro to look after all our member regestrations etc, and the site we were affiliated with before apparently used s2 and had it set up so it stored members address info in the back end of wordpress?

Does this sound possible?

I know i could probably configure the “extra fields” of s2 to contain address info, but then free members who just want foru access will have to fill out all that as well.

Also – me personally – i cant see how it can work unless paypal feeds this info back to s2….?

Any ideas?

Hi Christopher.

s2Member doesn’t store addresses by default. Like you said, custom profile fields could be created for this, but these don’t integrate with PayPal.

The billing address in the pro-form is for the gateway as part of the payment process, s2Member doesn’t store those.

If you saw an s2Member installation with addresses stored, they either used the custom profile fields to capture them, or created a hack to get that from the billing address for Paypal.

You can have custom profile fields for some levels only, and eclude others, e.g. Level 0. Check out [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields -> Add/Edit Field -> Applicable Membership Levels[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)
