You can choose any page as the Membership Options page, and you can even use a redirection URL. WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Membership Options Page

Thanks
I was hoping you meant an auto redirect not a link

Do you know of redirect plugins that work well with s2?

Just create a page, put the shortcode for the pro-form there, copy the URL to that page, use it to create a link to it from your Membership Options Page. http://www.mcbuzz.com/wordpress/how-to- ... wordpress/

If you don't want the default registration open to create free accounts, you must disable this. WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Open Registration

The Membership Options Page is the page where a user will be taken when trying to open a page/post restricted by s2Member that he doesn't have enough access for.

The Membership Options Page content can remain the same, with whatever you put in it, which can include the s2Member Pro pro-form, or it can be a link to the pro-form in another page.

Does that help?

I guess I should have asked how, as well as can it.
What do I need to change where so users go to the register/checkout form instead of the Membership options page?
or is my membership options page my register.checkout page?

Also how do I stop users from getting to wp-login.php action=register?

Thanks
Simon

s2Member Pro just adds more things to the existing free s2Member plugin. Pro doesn't remove or change things in free, just adds. Here you can learn more about what s2Member adds http://s2member.com

You Membership Options Page would not change, the workflow would not change by installing Pro, but you'll be able to change it yourself using the things s2Member Pro adds, if you want to.

Does that help?

Hopefully the last question on this, I'm not quite reconciling the workflow between s2free and s2pro. (I'm using s2free at the moment)
The membership option page (s2free) does that get replaced with the register/checkout page in s2pro?
My intent is not to have any free accounts, so a user would either login (account already created to get acccess) or register/checkout (to get access).

Thanks again
Simon

Cristián,
Make sense, the link to the second thread has given me some good thoughts to follow
Thanks for your quick and thoughtful replies
Simon
p.s. an "automagically" plugin would sure be good!

If you want the payment and registration at the same time, all the info gets captured in the same form on your site, including the card details, which is why you have to have SSL and serve that form with it. That card is not stored in your website, though, it's sent to Authorize.Net to process it.

Now, if you want to use buttons instead, like the Authorize.Net Simple Checkout seems to do, then you won't be able to do registration and payment in a single step. You may be able to have the person pay first and then register, as with the other gateway integrations s2Member Pro has.

s2Member doesn't integrate with Simple Checkout yet, and I don't know other people who used it, but you can read these threads and see if it helps with the integration:

Hi Christian,
Ok so it works with Authorize.net but does it capture the card details on my server or on Authorize.net server.

I don't want to get tied up with PCI-DSS and the overhead and cost of capturing credit card details on my site.
and would prefer it to pass the user to Authorize.net server for the payment details capture.

works the same as Authorize.net simple checkout, not using AIM/ARB

Thanks
Simon

Hi Simon.

Yes, with s2Member Pro you can let someone register and checkout at the same time using the pro-forms, which are avaialble for PayPal Pro as well as Authorize.Net. Here's an example https://www.s2member.com/single-site-license/

I hope that helps.

Register and checkout at the same time

2011-07-03T21:28:53-05:00

Hi Guys,
this is in respect to this old thread
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=173

I see the functionality is built into s2Pro, but the marketing talk is clouding the details somewhat.

Does the registration and checkout work with Authorize.net (blurb only talks of paypal pro)?
Does the Pro version capture the users Credit card details on a form on my site, or does it pass the user to the providers (authorize.net) secure server and then pass back.

Thanks
Simon
