Membership Application with admin approval??

Hi,

I have browsed around the topics and although there are a lot of similar requests out there I can’t seem to find the exact answer I’m looking for…

I have the s2member pro plugin…

What I need is for people to apply for membership on the site (say at free level 0) – but I don’t want them to have to complete login details in the account request form at this point.

I then want the site admin to be able to review the application and send out a payment request for the appropriate level of membership to the association.

Once the membership payment has been received the user will receive automatically generated login details to their member account….

Is there any way this can be done??

Any help is greatly greatly appreciated!!!!

Thanks :)

I don’t know of any way to do that specifically.

Here are two other options:

1.

Set up a custom form for their membership application (something like Gravity Forms) This can email the admin with their submission.
If the admin approves their account request he/she includes a link in the approval email to a hidden page on the website that has the form for signing up and paying for the appropriate level of membership.

2.

Have the prospective member set up a free account (Level 0) as part of their account request.
If they are approved admin bumps them up from Level 0 to Level 1.
Admin then sends their approval email with a link to a payment page.
Have the page with the form for them to purchase the paid membership only available to members of Level 1.
The prospective member then has to log into their account, visit the page with the purchase form, and make their payment. As soon as the payment goes through they will be elevated to the appropriate membership level.

Thank you for the reply. I think the custom form application with a link to membership payment is the solution for me.

Thanks for your help – much appreciated :)
