manually add a member with full access

Is it possible to manually add a member with full page/post access who is paying some other way? I visited the "Can I create new Membership accounts manually with s2Member?" section of s2Member's FAQ page but it still confused me. When I visited my PayPal account to investigate PayPal Pro, I didn't find exactly that. I found Website Payments Pro, but that's if you want to accept credit cards directly on your site. I want to keep using PayPal but there are a few members who have already set up PayPal profiles with my other site and now that I've moved to a self-created WordPress site, I want them to have access while still keeping their current PayPal payment profiles intact. Is this possible? I would really like to avoid asking them to cancel one PayPal profile and set up another.

You could create/edit their accounts manually, particularly these fields:

- Role
- Paid Subscr. Gateway
- Paid Subscr. ID
- Automatic EOT Time


That last three have a [?] link with more information on each.

If you have s2Member Pro, and want to do them in bulk, you can use the Import tool. WP Admin -> s2member -> Import / Export -> User/Member Import Files

I hope that helps. :)
