Melissa,

By default, your visitors will need to go to the WordPress registration page to register. You can send them there by placing a link to the registration page anywhere that makes sense (such as the Membership Options page). It doesn't matter where it goes, as long as non-members can view the page where you put the link. You might want to say something like "Please click here to register".

Another option that may work better for you is to use a WordPress plugin that let's you put the registration form on any page, instead of sending people to the WordPress registration page. This way you could add the registration form directly to your Membership Options page. One such plugin that let's you do this is Simplr Registration Form: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sim ... tion-form/

Does that sound like what you're trying to do?

I dont think I have the pro version. I would like for members of the HOA to be able to sign-up and receive a password to access certain pages of the site. I will not be processing any payments, etc. It is only for controlling access to has the information. This does not have be a very secure site the HOA just wants to restrict access to who can download forms, etc.

OK, I understand that, basically you want to restrict access to users that are not member, and you want to restrict certain pages only, am I right? If I'm wrong please tell me again.

Is this something that I should pay to have set-up for me? I feel like I am so close but must be missing some really little step.

You don't have to pay for it unless it's too difficult or you don't have the time. See this post for more information: viewforum.php?f=37.

I would like to have the members sign-up in this spot or have a pop-up come up asking for their registration. Should I sign up for the Pro version for this?

Yes you will need the pro version to do that.

Do you have the Pro version?
Do you want to make a little like on the membership options page there's the form that they fill without going to another page?

I am sorry I am so lost... Thank you for being so kind and helpful.

Can you maybe start a little form the beginning? I am not sure that I am placing the link in the correct area. Where exactly on the site am I pasting this link? On the membership page under the html code?

I am hoping that the members sign-up form will be on the page or pop up when they try and access a member's only section of the site. I am just not sure how to connect the dots.

You can place it wherever you want, can be your sales page, membership options page etc. Anywhere you think it's appropriate.

Try logging out to try that link.

Place this link:

http://www.your_site_url.com/wp-login.php?action=register

That's the url in which they will always register.

I am still having issues... I went to open registration and made sure that it says free subscribers. Now I would like to connect the registration page to my login. I found this on the site but am unsure what it means:

"you might want to place a link on your Membership Options Page, which points directly to your Registration Form"

How do I place a link on the membership page to the form?

THANK YOU!
Melissa

PayPal doesn't need to be setup if you're not gonna receive payments. What you have to do is go to WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Open Registration and set everything over there.

Hope this helps.
Also remember to report back,
otherwise you leave me worrying.

Do I need to set this up if all subscribers are going to be free and there will be no Paypal involved? Thank you so much for your help!

Melissa,

It sounds like you need to create a Paypal Button in WP-Admin -> s2Member -> Paypal Buttons so that your members can purchase access.

Did you read WP-Admin -> s2Member -> Quick-Start Guide? Each section in there explains how s2Member works.

Let us know if that answers your question.

Membership Login & Sign Up Not Showing Up

2011-11-08T22:18:12-05:00

OKay.... This is probably 101 but I have been watching every video and still can't figure this out. I have 3 pages that need to have access restrictions. I would like these three pages to be for members only. I have everything downloaded and all of the set-up done. I entered the page restrictions using the page numbers. Now the content is unavailable...

What do I do now?

I would like the registration/login information to appear on the pages. HELP! I have been trying to figure out this riddle for the last 8 hours. I understand that it is getting re-routed to the login or membership page. How do I have the sign-up info on there?

Here is the link to my site: http://www.melissagracephoto.com/LagunaWest/

Thank you for all of your help!
Melissa
