Cool. They have a small learning curve, but big possibilities. I know one user here who had to learn them and is now in love with them.

If the videos are not enough, search the web for tutorials on PHP conditions.

We'll be happy to help you, but if you want something faster, it may be better to hire a developer to do it for you. You can try posting a job here: viewforum.php?f=37

I hope this helps.

Have you tried applying the conditionals?
If not try it, the way Jason shows the examples is excellent to learn.

I know I keep submitting these responses but conditionals really confuse me. Is there any possibility for a representative or user who knows what they're doing to screen-share with me to show me how to accomplish this? I'm on my own here.

The conditionals allow to break that usual cumulative process. In other words you can configure it so that users can see level specific things.

Well, since all the content in Membership Level #1 is included in Level #2, couldn't I just use the different membership levels instead of conditionals? Or would the drip-content behavior I have for Level #1 mess up the immediate access of the same content for Level #2?

If you use the access restrictions based on levels, then access will be incremental and a level 2 user will have access to a level 1 content. WP Admin -> s2Member -> Restriction Options

Now, you can use levels and instead of the access restrictions, use conditionals to decide what content to show. WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / Scripting -> Simple/Shortcode Conditionals or Advanced/PHP Conditionals

Now, an automatic EOT behavior, as it's implemented in the current release, will affect all access you sold the person. WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Options -> Auto EOT Behavior

If you want to do something more custom, I'd say you disable the auto behavior and instead work with conditionals only.

You may want to look at using custom capabilities too, instead of just levels. http://www.s2member.com/custom-capabilities-video/

I hope this helps!

Are Membership Levels Cumulative?

2011-10-24T15:00:24-05:00

Can you specify completely different actions for each membership level, or does each one automatically include everything in the previous membership level?

For example:
Does Membership Level #2 automatically include everything in Membership Level #1 PLUS X, Y, Z (additional content)?
Or can Membership Level #1 have certain content included, while Membership Level #2 have different content?

What I'm trying to do is have Membership Level #1 be $27/mo membership with 12 lessons drip contented (with no EOT - End of Term) weekly, while Membership Level #2 is $97 for access to all 12 lessons immediately with an EOT of 4 months. The Drip Content protocol would exist for Level #1, but not for Level #2. Is this possible? Or would my Level #2 automatically include the drip contented 12 lessons in Level #1? Can you do completely different actions?
