MULTISITE - only have to sign up on main site

I want to create subdomains for chapters but members only have to sign up on main site and then have access to all sites. How do I set S2 up to do this? I do not want S2 to be an active on the subdomains?

In other words...sign up for access at ABC Organization
membership gives you access to Atlanta.ABC, NewYork.ABC, Miami.ABC....
I want the "chapters" to be able to post events and blog, but not have access to member info

is there a way to do this? I have been struggling with this for over a week. Please help!

Hi Marna.

s2Member doesn't manage this. You'll have to google how to have the same userbase for the whole multisite network. I think it's possible, but I don't know how.

Once you have the users with their access level or custom capabilties being recognized in the child blogs, you can configure s2Member in each child blog to control their access to the content. This is not something you can manage from the main blog, since s2Member manages access within the scope of each blog, not the network.

I hope this helps. :)
