We are migrating our drupal-based membership site to WP and have a few questions before getting too far along with S2Member. Before getting to the questions, I will describe what we do. This will help answer the first question. We deliver a service to companies. All materials are kept on the website, where users have access. The service we deliver lasts a year and as they progress through the program, additional materials become available. The materials are divided into 12 modules, with 4-5 documents per module. When a company starts, the employees can see all the material related to Module 1. At the end of the first month, we’ve covered all the material and they are then moved to Module 2, where they can see Module 1 and 2. This process lasts the whole year. At the end, they have access to materials in Modules 1-12. The current drupal-system defines role by company. As they progress, we simply change access to the additional material through the admin page. My first question is this: the free version of S2Member has four membership categories. If we move forward this way, we can put all companies under the same membership category, create a custom post/page type and progress them that way (I think). Or, if we use the paid version, we can have an unlimited number of companies, all with the same membership level and progres them that way. For those of you familiar with membership sites and keeping things organized, which do you think is better? We currently have 13 companies in our program, so it would require a lot of custom typing of pages/posts. Not sure if this helps, but once a company has finished, the users with that company go into a finished membership type, which is simple enough with either version of S2Member. Thank you for your advice and help. If you need clarification on anything I’ve said, please let me know. |
