Remove login capabilities for only 1 level

Hello,

This is my second attempt with your forum to get a response to my question, I hope I’m in the right place :)

I am using your pro version and looking to remove log-in capabilities for one of our levels that is only acting as a member level but used solely for donations so logging in is not necessary or wanted for these folks. Is is possible for them to give their info (newsletter) but not be given or asked for user and pass?

Any idea how I would go about this?

Thanks so much!!!

Best,

Kelli

Hi Kelli,

The only way to accomplish this would be to have a custom form outside of s2Member to collect this info. s2Member works by way of the WordPress Roles and Capabilities functionality, so any user group that s2Member collects info for will need to be signed up with a username and password.

Thanks so much for responding, Bruce!

Will I still be able to take them to PayPal for the donation and collect their info?

PayPal donations can be set up outside of s2Member, so yes. However s2Member will not be in control of this data, and the system for this will need to be set up by you.

Thanks again for your response, Bruce. One last question. Is it possible to redirect them to the site as opposed to the registration page after they make their donations or possible to just turn off the wordpress follow up emails after they register?

Thank you!!

I believe that PayPal donations do not use the PayPal IPN to send users back to your site, but if they do, you should be able to set your PayPal PDT to your site’s homepage instead of the standard s2Member return page, and s2Member should override this change when it sends a user to PayPal.
