Hello;

We are a communications agency. We have a client who wants to sell a subscription to an online magazine. Only users who have paid the subscription will have access to the journal.

We would like to know if your plugin would be possible to do this. We are going to make the online magazine with another software based in html5.

Thank you very much and sorry for my English.

A greeting;

Hi Marcos.

s2Member may work for you, depending on how that other software works. You can try them with the free version of s2Member, from what you told me, it seems to have what you may need.

If the journal is published in WordPress pages/posts, you can protect those with s2Member easily. If the manazine will be in separate files instead of served by WordPress, then you’ll need to protect those files, for which the Download Restriction may work. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options[/hilite]

The only problem with that may be if the file it outputs is actually a folder with files, in which case they’d all be protected, and then any link between them as a resource, like if you have an index that loads other files in that protected folder, would need to include a download key or the files won’t be loaded: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options -› Advanced Download Restrictions[/hilite]. That has been a problem I’ve seen in the past with other site owners that have an online magazine.

Anyway, your tests will tell a lot more than my guessing. Let us know how it goes!

I hope it helps. :)
