Hello William,
here are the answers that I know to your questions:

1.) Can I create more than 4 levels of membership?

Absolutely, this is very possible, please check this FAQ:
http://www.s2member.com/faqs/#s2-faqs-level-extensions

2.) I have hundreds/thousands of files in .pdf form. Can I auto populate the download page or do I have to create a link for each one?

I believe you would have to do this manually… There is a plugin that might help you with this process, please check this KBA (Knowledge Base Article) for more information:
http://www.s2member.com/kb/secure-file-uploader-plugin-for-s2member/

3.)Is it possible for the program to limit the number of pages on a pdf. ie; ( I have a 6 page .pdf file , The client only has paid for 4 downloads, will the program stop them from downloading the whole .pdf file or can it be limited to only the first 4 pages of the .pdf?)

This is currently not possible with s2Member, you can only sell access to an entire file, you might want to cut the file in various sections if you want this functionality, but it would only complicate the whole matter.

4.) Are the files saved in a database? Or just on the server?

The files would be saved in a special s2Member directory, in your server, not on your database. That special directory would be:

wordpress root directory -> wp-content -> s2member-files

5.) If I have thousands of documents that I want to sell. How will I know when it is time to add another database?

I am not sure I understand this question, in other words, you want to know when the database would be full? And would need to put in a new one?

6.) Does the program come with a search for documents that are being sold ?

No, s2Member doesn’t offer this option, you can however, search through the shortcodes with the search function web browsers offer.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello there,
the success attribute only works with the pro version right now.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello there,
actually, each client needs their own s2Member account. Excerpt from the terms and conditions page:

Please note… if you’re a developer, your clients will need to purchase their own Single-Site and/or Unlimited-Site License. We will not support s2Member® Product instances on domains that you do NOT own and operate yourself. We invite all developers to join our affiliate program, and refer their clients to s2Member.com, where your clients may purchase an s2Member® Product of their own. This also gives your clients access to future releases.

Also, if you bought a single-site license, it won’t work for different websites.

Hope this clears some things up. :)

Hello Marc,
the forum issue you mentioned is a known problem, reported by many users, I’ll see if Jason can get to the bottom of that problem.

Sincerely,
Eduan. :)

Hello Kath,
just a note, I believe emails aren’t sent in a localhost enviroment. Since localhost enviroments do not have this capability.

If I understood correctly, your site is in a local host.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello there,
you might be interested in exploring Custom Capabilities (CCaps), they might just be what you need if I understood correctly.

You can learn more about them in the following link:

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Ken,

have you looked under WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Custom Registration/Profile Fields & Options.

Have you made sure there isn’t any field there that’s being added by you?

Hope this helps. :)

You’re welcome Sue!

Glad I was able to help. :)

Hello Bruce,
this problem sometimes happens with tinyurl.com, if you have it, I am not aware of a workable solution.

So you might be interested in using the Google URL minimizing solution.

Simply go to WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> URL Shortening Service Preference and change that option there to goo.gl and that should now work.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Mark,
with the pro version of s2Member you can add the

success=""

and that will control the page to which users will return to once they make the payment process.

Hope this helps. :)

I believe if you made the custom profile field, couldn’t you just put it in the new language in which you want it?

Hello Emmanuel,
if you look at the FAQ, you will see you can translate the whole of s2Member:
