Restricted Content question

Dear Support,

I posted my question to the wrong forum section and therefor did not receive any response, so I’d like to copy paste the question over. Please feel free to remove the other post http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/presales-question-about-restricted-content/

Dear s2member-Team,

I hope I can gather information about the feasibility of our project with your promising plugin.
We did purchase a license once for another project, but we’re not sure if we can use another license for the upcoming project. We’ve been let down by other promising plugins so I try to inform myself as good as I can beforehand this time.

I am the webdeveloper for a publishing agency who wants to offer their content online, restricted within various annually paid user levels.

We have content A – online magazine articles
content B – one-page summaries of business books
content C – 8 page summaries of business books

Say the levels are bronze, silver and gold,
where a user that is not logged in sees only excerpts of all the content,
bronze has access to the full product A,
silver has access to A+B and
gold has unlimited access.

We are desperately looking for a system to integrate into our WordPress site to create such a membership system.

Is that something we could be able to do with s2member?

I would appreciate any information!
Thank you so much and all the best,

Mel

Thank you for your inquiry.

I’m very sorry for the delay in response. I missed this thread until now.

Yes, you can accomplish most of this with s2Member. You will want to restrict your Posts/Pages with your summaries with s2Member level 2 (or Silver Level), your product downloads with s2Member Level 1, and your 8-page summaries with s2Member Level 3.

With this you can sell access to s2Member Level 1 for Bronze Users, and they will then be able to download your product using s2Member’s Download Options:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options -› Basic Download Restrictions

s2Member Level 2 will Correspond with the content that Silver members should have, and Level 3 for Gold Members.

As for your excerpts, this will need to be done with Advanced PHP Conditionals and you may need a Developer to accomplish this. s2Member does not have the ability to accomplish this itself, sorry. That’s something that has to be done on the theme level.
