Login options

Who on god’s green earth came up with the login options! Reading through the forum entries show me that I am not the only one suffering. How to take a simple plugin and make it really difficult to use! Maybe you will have some easy answers for me – let’s see….

Here is what I’m trying to do. I have a FREE site but I want folks to login to certain areas. I’m trying to add a login box, or link to a login box, or a button to a login box on the member page (for free members). Same for the Register page. Why is that so hard!

One more question, I have to upgrade to the Pro version just to add a login link to the top header of my theme?

Thanks for your time and support.

Yes, that requires s2Member® Pro; it comes with the Pro Login Widget and it makes several things possible. However, as a free alternative you can try this out. Jason (the Lead Developer for s2Member® Pro) recommends this in his article here. See: Knowledge Base » Plugins/Themes (Compatibility w/ s2Member®)

Free: Sidebar Login (written by Mike Jolley)

Thanks Mike,
A couple of questions,
1) can I add a sidebar login widget inside a page or post, and if so are there instruction to do so?
2) can I add the s2member login widget to a page or post, and if so are there instruction to do so?

Thanks again!

This is possible w/ s2Member® Pro.
