Hi Lucie,

While s2Member is compatible with WordPress Multisite Networking, the sites within a WordPress network are separate and not interconnected. That means you cannot share users, logins, or other data across the sites.

Please see the following from WordPress.org:

The sites in a multisite network are separate, very like the separate blogs at WordPress.com. They are not interconnected like things in other kinds of networks (even though plugins can create various kinds of interconnections between the sites). If you plan on creating sites that are strongly interconnected, that share data, or share users, then a multisite network might not be the best solution.

The s2Member Multisite feature allows you to offer the s2Member plugin to sub-sites, giving your sub-sites the ability to setup and use s2Member on their own. Things like access restrictions on one domain are not shared across domains (again, the WordPress Multisite feature itself isn’t designed to work like that). When you upgrade s2Member on the primary site, the s2Member plugin is automatically updated for all your sub-sites.

There are plugins that allow you to get around these WordPress Multisite limitations, however they may or may not work with s2Member.

Regarding allowing your users to edit Custom Registration Fields, please see Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Member Profile Modifications.

Hi Randy,

Please see Knowledge Base » s2Member® Login Widgets.

Thank you for the kudos, Jay! :)

Please see s2Member® » Framework » Install/Upgrade Instructions.

Hi Terrence,

s2Member does not officially support cross-domain access restrictions; we only support access restrictions for the domain on which s2Member has been installed. This applies to both s2Member Framework and s2Member Pro.

While s2Member can be installed in a multisite environment, that feature simply extends the s2Member plugin availability to sub-sites, meaning each sub-site gets to use s2Member on that domain (entirely independent of what’s going on with other domains).

If s2Member is upgraded on the primary domain, s2Member will automatically be upgraded for all sub-domains. But again, access restrictions are not controlled from one central domain.

It may be possible to use s2Member Pro in the scenario you described, but we do not support that.

You may want to post a custom job on one of the following sites and see if a programmer familiar with s2Member can make the necessary customizations:

http://jobs.wordpress.net

s2Member allows you to store the number on the customer’s profile and then output that number within WordPress. If you want to add that content on top of something else (e.g., a coupon graphic), you can do that using CSS or JavaScript (it will all depend on how your web developer sets it up).

If someone prints out that number and then uses it at a store, whoever is at the store can look up the customer’s profile within s2Member and then compare the number to the one presented. (Custom Fields are not currently searchable so they’ll need to look up the account by the persons’ name; custom field search is a feature we’re looking into for the next major release.)

Hi Rayna,

That indicates you have a page restriction set up for that page and it requires at least Level 0 access.

Are you able to access that secure page with an Admin account? Also, have you triple-checked that the test account you’re using has the s2Member Level 0 role (you can check this by editing the user and looking at its role).

If the above are both true, I would suggest disabling any other plugins you’re running. It’s possible another plugin is conflicting with s2Member.

Hi Joe,

Yes, s2Member supports the Buy Now sale of Specific Posts/Pages via PayPal® Standard Buttons:

s2Member Supports the Buy Now sale of Specific Posts/Pages via PayPal® Standard Buttons. Membership registration not required by customer. This is an added layer of functionality, very powerful. You can even package multiple Posts/Pages together into one “Buy Now” transaction. Specific Post/Page Access, is like selling a product. Only, instead of shipping anything to the Customer, you just give them access to a specific Post/Page on your site; one that you created in WordPress®. A Specific Post/Page that is protected by s2Member, might contain a download link for your eBook, access to file & music downloads, access to support services, and the list goes on and on. The possibilities with this are endless; as long as your digital product can be delivered through access to a WordPress® Post/Page. For instance, you might sell an existing Member an additional item (without affecting their current Membership plan).

Please see Features » PayPal® Standard Button Integration for more details.

s2Member also supports file downloads:

Hi Terence,

s2Member (Free and Pro) only allow access restrictions to content on the domain where it’s installed. This is due to the way WordPress works (users from one installation are not shared between WordPress installations). See the following from WordPress.org:

The sites in a multisite network are separate, very like the separate blogs at WordPress.com. They are not interconnected like things in other kinds of networks (even though plugins can create various kinds of interconnections between the sites). If you plan on creating sites that are strongly interconnected, that share data, or share users, then a multisite network might not be the best solution.

If you’d like to sell access on one domain and provide the restricted content on another domain, we recommend installing s2Member on the domain where you want access restricted and then simply place your purchase buttons on the “sales” domain. (The purchase buttons generated by s2Member can be converted into encrypted URLs that can be placed on the other domain.)

Hi Matt,

Thank you for your patience.

I am escalating this to the billing department. Someone will be in touch shortly.

Hi Jess,

All of what you described is possible with s2Member except for the ability to allow users to Edit content. s2Member does not provide any roles that allow users (registered, paid, or otherwise) to Edit pages/posts in WordPress. The role that s2Member gives all users is a variation of the ‘Subscriber’ role in WordPress.

Other customers have customized s2Member and integrated it with 3rd-party plugins that allow you to fine tune and tweak s2Member roles so that users can be given the ability to Edit, however since s2Member is not designed to give access to Editing posts/pages, there are other things to consider when making such customizations (such as security).

This may change in future versions of s2Member.
