Yes, that's correct. The final domain that you intend to install s2Member Pro on, that's what you want to use. However, this is for support purposes only. There is nothing in the software that would prevent you from running as many development installations as you need.

A Single Site License grants you permission to use s2Member Pro on ONE "live" domain, but it does NOT prohibit you from installing it into multiple locations ( for the purpose of testing/staging ).

If you intend to install s2Member Pro on multiple "live" domains,
you must purchase the Unlimited Site License.

I'll ask Jason about to be sure but, if Single license, I believe entering the domain where it'll be live is fine; the Unlimited license doesn't even need the question.

Regarding localhost, add this line to your /wp-config.php file:

Code:: define('LOCALHOST', true);

s2Member has a special routine, which we refer to as the Systematics Routine. It sees your IP address is the same as the server's IP; which is sometimes an issue on a WAMP/MAMP installation.

It's fine as long as your domain is http://localhost/. However, if it's something other than that, you'll need to add that line in your /wp-config.php file so s2Member realizes it's running on a localhost installation.

Regarding subdomains, these may be helfpul to know:

I hope that helps. Jason should confirm soon the domain name thing for the license.

s2Member Pro Localhost > Domain

2011-04-27T03:34:11-05:00

Hey guys,

I've looked in the FAQ and also around the forums but i couldn't spot anything about this topic, so sorry if i missed it.

I'm wanting to purchase s2Member Pro but i'm not sure not how this is going to work. My process is to design my websites locally, then move it to a sub domain for show purposes before finally moving it to its correct domain.

How will this work when it comes to purchasing s2Member Pro? Part of the sign up form requires a primary domain name to be entered. I understand my method seems time consuming but there's a reason as to why i do it and i can't really change it.

Also, i understand i can use the free version of s2Member before upgrading, but as i said, i need everything working before i move the website to it's primary domain.

Thanks.
