Multiple memberships for the same user

Is it possible for a user to have more than one membership? For example, if Bronze has access to X pages and Silver has access to Y pages, do you need to create a new membership level if you want a user to give access to both X and Y pages, or is it possible for that user to be a Bronze AND Silver member at the same time and have access to both X and Y pages that way.

I had a look at “Specific Post/Page Access Restrictions” and that would allow visitors to build their own membership by buying separate “products”. However, “products” do not seem to be able to be recurring …

Maybe there is a way to modify the PayPal button code generated [Button Code Generator For Specific Post/Page Buttons] that would make the “buy now” button recurring?

The way to do that maybe would be to delete:

<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick" />
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="5.00" />

and add:

<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick-subscriptions">
<input type="hidden" name="a3" value="5.00"> [amount to billed each recurrence]
<input type="hidden" name="p3" value="1"> [number of time periods between each recurrence]
<input type="hidden" name="t3" value="M"> [time period (D=days, W=weeks, M=months, Y=years)]
<input type="hidden" name="src" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="sra" value="1">

I’d appreciate your comments.

Hi Poirot,

s2Member does not currently support multiple subscriptions on one s2Member user account.

In your scenario, you’d need to use Custom Capabilities to allow the building of memberships that include pieces of other content. For example, you might have a Level 1 membership that you sell and then if you want to sell that user an additional addon for his membership, you could sell him a one-time BuyNow Custom Capability (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Capability (Buy Now) Forms).

If the new Custom Capability should increase his recurring subscription, you’d need to provide a Billing Modification form instead (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Billing Modification Forms), which would include the new Custom Capability along with the increased recurring amount.

Any content that has been tagged with that new custom capability would then become available to the user once it has been added to their account.

Please see the video below for more information on Custom Capabilities:
