Can I allow a single user to access multiple mutually exclusive levels of premium content? Ex: single user can access program 2 and program 4, but not program 1 and program 3.

A member can only BE at one level at the time, so in a way, no, it would not work. However, if you want to consider those levels like different “departments” (instead of levels), then, you might as well use the Custom Capabilities (ccaps). You would assign one ccaps with the name of your choice, to the content of your choice.

For example, you can have a ccap called “photography” and one called “editing”. All the pages, and posts you want accessible to someone who purchases “photography” package would get it if you use the code:

[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_photography)]
    Display content for that topic
[/s2If]

But if you want someone to have access to more than one, you can use this kind of code:

[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_photography)]
    Display content for that topic
[/s2If]
[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_editing)]
    Display content for that topic
[/s2If]

So now, if a member purchases the access to the “photography” content, they can ALSO purchase the “editing” content later. As long as you have only ONE recurring payment/subscription, they can be purchased separately just like individual courses.

Does that help?

My bad, I copied and pasted inaccurately:

[s2If !is_user_logged_in()]
Login widget in left column / Open Registration for website form on right column
[/s2If]

[s2If is_user_logged_in() AND !current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_eventfeb2013)]
Paypal pro form with CCap to purchase event 
[/s2If]

[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_eventfeb2013)]
Brief Synopsis of Schedule
[/s2If]

Try this.

Maybe you could post a request in this section?

I don’t know what is going on behind the ticket, but I will admit that we were just spoiled before with answers within the hour or so. Now, the process is different and only us, the “oldies” who got spoiled, notice the difference. Anyone new will use the ticket system as it is in other places for support.

And who is to say that paying customers are not getting answered before non-paying ones? I have no way to know, but I know I got an answer the next day when I submitted a ticket while I had waited a month in the forum.

Just give the ticket system a shot.

I didn’t get a notification either and I too expected quick tech support in here because I did in the past, however, you surely have noticed that the old section “meant for paying customers” is no longer here and this is called “community forum”.

Unfortunately, pounding doors in the community forum will not do any good for you to get an answer from a tech support and the community members wont be able to help you either. It would be simpler to submit a ticket and direct the tech support to the thread you have posted previously. I think you have more chance for answer going that route.

I took several weeks before noticing this change too, and I had threads left unanswered for over a month before I went the other way, and I did get my answers. Give this a try.

I don’t think the account is deleted in case the subscription expires. I think the member is demoted to Level 0 ((Free subscriber). In this case, you can maybe create a subscription/payment button and hide it within a conditional that the member has to be a Level 0 one, which means that they still have an account and they are logged in.

Would that work?

Did you try to see which one is visible by default? Is it the first one listed?

This is a community forum and not a support section anymore (unlike it was in the past). The fastest way to get a tech support to review your question is to submit a ticket. I know were got spoiled and used to very fast response from tech people but they have changed the format for support.

Once you have your conditional shortcode, you will just do the copy and paste, so you can do this:

This can be the first paragraph of the article that is protected and…
[s2If !is_user_logged_in()]MORE [/s2If]
[s2If is_user_logged_in()]
this would be the rest of the article that will be only visible to those who are logged in.
[/s2If]

As for SEO, maybe you can use the All In One SEO and fill in the information there. I am not 100% sure it works as well, but it sure would work better than no SEO at all.

Short answer is no. What is protected from viewers is also protected from google search.

Now, you look like you are probably making more work for yourself by making copies of those pages. You can protect the content in the same page. You can have something like this:

This can be the first paragraph of the article that is protected and… (here you can have a “More” linked to your registration page
[s2If is_user_logged_in()]
this would be the rest of the article that will be only visible to those who are logged in.
[/s2If]

Did you try that?

In the General Options.

Could you explain what you mean when you say you have a group installed?

Isn’t that a WP issue? I know that it won’t let you enter any non alpha-numerical characters in the username for example. Maybe s2Member is limited by that requirement?
