paypal button – adding form fields

i’ve jsut started playing with s2member for the first time.

i’ve kind of set most stuff up but i want to capture some customer address information as part of the paypal purchase as i need to send out a membership card on first payment (the rest will be annual subscription)

How do i get name & address details captured as part of the paypal process?

Any help would be appreciated… i’m not that techie so please keep it simple :)

Hi there,
have you tried using the custom profile fields under WP Admin -> s2Member -> Registration/Profile Fields & Options?

You can create new profile fields, which will automatically be in their profile page, if you have them.

Hope this helps. :)

Hi Eduan,

That’s for their account though isn’t it? At the moment we are not asking for an account to be set-up, that’s optional after payment, we’d rather make it easy to pay, just not sure how to get the paypal process to capture & or send us the address…

Anyone else got any suggestions?

I have seen in PayPal from them i can make payment buttons with this functionality, just not via S2 member, but then guessing that means it wont integrate if i use their buttons?

help :)

Hi,
well you can create a button over at PayPal, you can follow this KBA (Knowledge Base Article):
