Bypass the membership options page

[johnsimpson]

Hi all

I want to use this plugin to create a locked off area for some clients on one of our websites. I do not want to charge for this access however we do want them to register their details before they can view the content on the specific page.

I have installed the free version of this plugin and got it working with the open registration facility and it works great... the only problem I have is the registration part... Is it possible to bypass the membership options page and take them straight to the registration form? Or even better be able to stick the registration / login forms directly into this page? - I also dont like the fact that the registration / login page looks completely different to the rest of the site, I have put our logo on it and I see you can add a footer in but I would prefer it to appear like its part of the site and sits within my page?

I hope someone can help, really like this plugin!

thanks
John

create a page called 'register'
put the following form into that page changing the website in action to your site (leave the "wp-login.php?action=register" bit thats important!).
Then make sure you have open registration enabled under s2member > general options
also under s2member > general options > membership options page, change that to the page 'register' you created, which should now be in the drop down menu.

you can style the form with css

Let me know if this approach works

Code: Select all

<form name="registerform" id="registerform" action="http://www.yourwebsite.com/wp-login.php?action=register" method="post">
   <p>
      <label for="user_login">Username *<br />
      <input type="text" name="user_login" id="user_login" class="input" value="" size="20" tabindex="10" /></label>
   </p>
   <p>
      <label for="user_email">Email Address *<br />
      <input type="email" name="user_email" id="user_email" class="input" value="" size="25" tabindex="20" /></label>
   </p>
      <span>Password *</span><br />
      <input type="password"  maxlength="100" autocomplete="off"  value="" tabindex="30" />
   <br class="clear" />
   <input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="" />
   <p class="submit"><input type="submit" name="wp-submit" id="wp-submit" class="button-primary" value="Register" tabindex="100" /></p>
</form>

Sounds like you need a client portal. check out this video http://www.s2member.com/client-portals-video/ it's the first video listed under, "Misc / Troubleshooting" on the video tutorials page.

I hope that helps
