Sorry but I found this plugin on the WF and someone talking about membership sites, I went through the videos on the site but still not sure about the full functionality of the pro version.

Does the plugin accept memberships / originate passwords / resend lost passwords / manage members and all the functions of a membership backend or is it just a payment gateway?

All the functionalities of WP are still managed by WordPress, but s2Member adds functionalities, like protecting content for members according to their level, membership, custom capability, selling access to individual pages and posts or group of them, and much more.

Since the basic version (not Pro) is free, you might want to have a go at it, install it (even better if you have a test site), check all the functions, even read in this forum to see what people are doing (even if they tend to post when they are stuck, you might get an idea of the power and flexibility).

Good luck

^ What Cassel said. The pro version just adds things to the free version, doesn't replace it. You can learn more about it here: http://s2member.com
