I am not 100% sure of this, simply because i never had the need to use it, but s2Member Pro has pro-forms that allow you to create and use coupons. Since you create your own coupon, i think that you can give them prefixes to help you track where they got the coupon.

Hope it helps, and maybe a more advanced support person can be more specific.

All the conditionals, and the page protection are made using s2M only. The theme is Headway Theme.

I am not a salesperson but if you want to come and see my site, i can grant you a temporary access so you can see what members/non members can see, if that is what you want.

Is that what you are looking for?

You might want to use conditionals so that if they are logged in and have paid, the button will not show.
I have something like that for the Webinars on my Campus site: if you have purchased the package, you see it, otherwise, you see the sale pitch. But you can put whatever you want if they are logged in and have paid, and if they have not.

Maybe something to check is whether the “purchase” is made by an existing member. I found that it works fine for a NEW member, but for existing members, the ccaps do not get set automatically. I usually have to keep a close eye on registrations and update manually if a customer was already a member (paid or not).

One way around this is to integrate the s2Member subscription with a mailing list. As an example, i am using a kind of workaround like that (not the best yet, but it works for now). I get someone to register for a course called “basic”, and the member is added to my MailChimp mailing list. I added a merged tag with the registration for that particular course and enter the date of the registration (i do it manually now, but i might get it automatic with some coding later on). Then, i set up an autoresponder for sending an email 3 days after registration, 7 days after, 14 days after and so on. In my case, i have all the content (the video lessons) on the site and accessible as soon as the member is registered, but you can have the content on different pages, and linked in the email so the new member is not able to find the content until it is time.

It might not the most straightforward method, but it works if you have a small enough membership to do it manually, or do the coding as mentioned in another thread here about Merged Tags in MailChimp.

And this can be done with more than one product since it will be using a different merged tag and a different set of autoresponders.

Hope it helps.

I have the same “problem”. I never get the notifications. I changed email and it still does not reach me.

Yes, you can adapt the hack to store other values, like registration dates.

Any info whether it is included in the next release before i get into coding?

Jordon, custom capabilities might look scary but they are not. I am not a tech person. I even struggle with simple html, yet, i managed to get a lot of custom capabilities coded into my site. Once you get the list of shortcode and you know what the basic code is for the simple conditionals, you will be going through it smoothly.

If you can think logically of the reasoning, you can code it, i promise:

if user has access to “category1” –> here is the content for category1
if user has access to “category2” –> here is the content for category2
and so on.
So whoever has access to category1 will not see what is in category 2, or 3 or 4 or 10 for that matter (yes, with the custom capabilities, you can have unlimited “categories”). Isn’t that neat?
