Using "Forms" in Client Environment

Is it possible to use a “Form” plugin (Visual Form Builder Pro, by Matthew Muro) to design 4 to 5 forms which the client would complete once they created their own account and logged in to the first client page using S2Member? My intent is to use WordPress to manage the site as a whole for a Resume Development and Creation service. The index page/home screen would describe three types of resumes followed by a “Get Started” button which would be linked to the S2Member login page where return customers would login and new customers would create an account.

Once logged in, the first client page would list the price selection of the three resume types followed by their personal information using PayPal for billing. Once the client has submitted payment via PayPal from the first client page, they would be redirected from PayPal to form 1 of 5 (developed using Visual Form Builder Pro) which is where I would begin to collect their employment history, experience and education in stages (i.e., Form 1, Form 2, Form 3, etc.). The stages are so they can come back latter, if needed, to complete the required forms. On the last page, I would have a File Upload option in the event the user has a draft resume, cover letter, or supporting documentation to assist in their résumé development.

I am unclear as to what can occur with S2Member after a client creates his/her account then logs in to the first client page (e.g., can I use “Forms” from a different WP plugin and still stay within the security and privacy of the client’s account? Can the “first-time” account login go to the personal information payment/billing page and then all subsequent logins validate payment has been made then redirected after validation of payment to one of the five forms or an overall status page?).

Any and all help you can provide in answering these questions, I would sincerely appreciate. Thank you!

s2Member restricts access to WordPress Posts and Pages, so anything that you can put on a WordPress Post/Page can be protected, including the content from another WordPress plugin.

If the Form Builder plugin that you’re using creates forms on a WordPress page, then you can simply protect that page with s2Member. I recommend installing s2Member Framework and testing things to be sure, but you shouldn’t have any problem.

To redirect new customers to a specific page on their first login, you can use One-Time Offers: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› One-Time Offers (Upon Login)
