How to stop integrating profile section in Paypal Pro forms

Postby poeta » September 21st, 2011, 5:14 pm

Hi Folks, Here is my situation.
I am using Buddypress and I love the registration page that comes with it. Since I cannot integrate S2 member payment fields directly into the Buddypress native registration page, I'm letting people register and login through buddypress freely and then buy membership once they are logged in. My problem is that once logged in and click on for example an S2 Member Level 1 Paypal Pro membership form they are still asked to fill their profile information as if they are still trying to register.
In my mind I think that is confusing since the user is already registered. Paypal Pro form for already registered users should just show billing info including billing name, Address, Phone number, Credit card info..
I am sure you guys have thought about this. Please let me know how to go about doing this.
Again My question is how do I turn off the profile section in paypal Pro form for users that have already registered and that are either buying a membership subscription or upgrading/downgrading their current subscription?
Thanks a lot for your help.

If the user is logged in, then the pro-form will pre-populate the profile fileds with the user's info. If the fields are empty, then he's viewing it while logged out. Maybe you can put the pro-form in a page shown to logged in users only.

Actually what I meant is a way to separate user's billing first name and last name from Wordpress/Buddypress Profile data. It is real that some users might have someone else pay for their membership or that the name on their credit card might not be the same as their profile name. This is even more frequent with Business customers where their profile name is the name of the Business but the Billing info might be the Business owners name. S2 member does not seem to take this in consideration where some competing plugins do realize this. I want to stick with S2 member since I've paid for the Pro version already but not having this feature is a deal breaker for me. What changes can I make to fix this? Thanks

Thanks for reporting this important issue.
I'm adding this to our TODO list. Until this is available as a feature, you might take a look at this thread where I've provided a code sample to make it possible using Custom Fields with s2Member. See: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=14980&p=42115&hilit=custom+field+differentiate#p42115

Ah, I couldn't find that tip when I searched for it. Thanks for the link, Jason! I moved the thread to the Common Questions forum. :)
