Specific Post question.

Ok Is it possible to give a user (with level 1) access to specific post without having to go through paypal? like simply clicking a button and the user will gain access to that specific post? Also does the script store the date when access to a specific post was given?

What im trying to accomplish is to drop content but I only want to drop content that a user is looking for. for example if a have posts a,b,c and d and user 1 (who is already a member) wants to read post A, they then open the post and are presented with a “Gain Access” button once they click on the button that user should start getting the content dripping to them however i set it from the day they “Gained Access”. So to start getting the content in post C they will need to do the same.

I dont want then to go to paypal because they will already be members and I dont want them to be bomparded with all kinds of posts i want them to receive only the information they want to receive and I will drip it to them hwoever I want them to receive it but only once they “ask” for it.

Does this make sense?

Hello,

This is partially achievable using Custom Capabilities. Each post could be assigned a Custom Capability and “Granting Access” would involve a bit of PHP code that adds that Custom Capability to their account (if this was a paid upgrade, you could use Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Capability (Buy Now) Buttons).

The part that’s not easily achievable with the current features is checking the “Gained Access” time. s2Member has a Paid Registration time (time since first payment), and Days Since Registration, but there’s no way to see “Time Since Custom Capability was Granted”.

All of the s2Member source code is available and there are many hooks and filters to make customizations to the plugin. A PHP programmer could create a table for Custom Capabilities that lists users, capabilities, and the dates the capabilities were granted. You’d then check that table when dripping content.
