I need away to check that the same IP isn’t being user for another registration.

New potential members get 7 days free, then are asked to purchase when their seven days are up.

Some come back a couple of months after, but can’t get in unless they pay.

So they register again, but with a different email address.

Is checking for repeated use of the same IP within the scope of s2Member?

Hello Paul,

You might be interested in IP restrictions, you can find them under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Unique IP Access Restrictions.

Hope this helps. :)

No, Sorry Eduan,

That is exactly the opposite.

That’s for restricting (potentially) multiple users (different IPs) using one account.

I need to stop multiple accounts being set up by one user (one IP) using different email adresses for registering.

But, thank you for posting a reply.

:)

Hi Paul,

Unfortunately that’s not currently possible with s2Member. As Eduan pointed out, we have Unique IP Access Restrictions for existing accounts, but preventing multiple registrations from the same IP is outside the scope of the plugin.

You may want to hire a programmer from jobs.wordpress.net to add a customization that records registered IP addresses and prevents access to future registrations from the same IP. There may also be a 3rd-party plugin that provides this functionality.
