Thank you again Eduan. :-)

Because of your help I have been able to figure out exactly what to do and even better it works. :-)

Hi Eduan,

So these shortcodes would go into the html code of the appropriate pages. Instead of me setting page level restrictions in the restrictions dashboard, I would add a shortcode to each individual page.

Is there a way to set up redirects by membership level, like in the example given about the buddy press profile?

I guess what I am trying to avoid is a single login welcome page that says click this button for level 1 and click that button for level 2. I thought it would a cool and lcassier approach to have the member login and they got redirected to their menu page.

What I have is video courses. Level 1 is the starter level with 1 video, level two has three videos and the top level has 10 videos. But people can buy each separate from the other.

So that a person who buys the top level could get the lower levels and the content would not be the same.

What I would like is for a person who bought the starter level to upgrade and then those videos could available to him/her just be changing their membership level. I think I would need the Pro version to have this many levels. And I guess what I am really looking for is not so much levels of membership but separate products that could get added into a person’ membership as they upgraded. Without the person who bought the top level to start with being able to access the lower levels as a result of the restriction options.

DO you think this is even possible in S2member – either version?

Michael

Hi Eduan,

Thank you again for your reply. I am trying to understand the flow of things here. I think I see a little glimmer of understanding, but I am not sure just yet.

I am using pages as the restriction option right now.

1. I set up my pages and mark each as belonging to level 1 or level 2
2. I set up “menu” pages with a list of which pages belong to level 1 and level2 and one which contains the menu for both level 1 and level 2
3. I create a login welcome page. And I put all the shortcodes you have provided in the html of the login welcome page.
4. Will this result in my members being redirected to the appropriate menu page?

Hi Eduan,

Thank you for your reply. I think I understand this a bit (maybe) :-)

For a simplistic example:

I have content at 2 different levels. Some people buy level 1 some people buy level 2, some people buy both. I want level 1 people to see only level 1 content. And I want level 2 people to only see level 2 content. And some people can see both.

I am trying to figure out the simplest way for this to happen. Part of it is that I do not know what it is I do not know. What I was thinknig was the most elegant solution was that as the members logged in, they would be automatically redirected to a custom login screen where they could access their purchases.

This might not be the easiest way to do accomplish what I want to do. What I was wondering is if there was somethign I could red or view that would go through this process step by step. Like which shortcodes to use (if any) where to put them and what the flow of events would be.

Thank you again for your help.

Sincerely

Michael
