Independent membership levels?

Postby VegasCult » August 30th, 2011, 7:40 pm

Is it possible to have restrictions based on categories, but specific to certain levels of memberships? I also need to have members subscribed to multiple memberships simultaneously.

Basically I need all levels to be independent, but available to be exclusive. (ex: I will have one level that's all-inclusive, and another that's exclusive to the others but includes a few of the other levels)

I need to reproduce this:

The easiest way (not including modifications to the membership/cancel pages. Billing for each membership can remain separate, btw) would be if the Restriction Options page could be made to say "Categories that Level x Has Access to" instead of "Categories that Need Level x or Higher." Then the categories specified would have an implicit deny rule for all others not explicitly granted access. (similar to how a network firewall works)

It looks like I can do it via the API. I'm going to attempt this through Thesis's custom_functions.php file. Here goes! (not a coder...not trying to be at least)

Custom capabilities seem to what would work best for this. http://www.s2member.com/custom-capabilities-video/

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I'm more wondering if there's a PHP solution I can implement that's based on the Wordpress categories. I need to have a client do the updates, and I would like to make this as easy as possible on him.

Another question would be, how can I enable users to have multiple subscriptions? I could build out a new level for every possible combination of services, but I would rather have a dynamic site where people can subscribe and unsubscribe as they please.

Are these two things possible?

That video shows (in segment 2) how you can combine custom capabilities with categories.

Multiple subscriptions aren't possible at the moment, but it's something Jason is looking at how to achieve.
