I'm sorry if this is already posted here, it's 5am & I've been trying to set up s2Member (free) sense midnight ;) (by the way it looks great, love the interface)

So, I want to show posts on my home page with a "read more" link, but I want readers to join for free to read the rest of the post, later I want to do the same for paid members. (read as a free member, pay to "read more") easy right? I must be fried not to see the answer!

PS, I also thought that the "content drip" was in the free version, was I wrong?

Anyways, it looks great!

This forum link should help you: http://www.primothemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=42&p=594&hilit=part+of+post+free#p594

Content Dripping is in the control panel under s2member -> API-Scripting

Looking for something similar to you, except I want to set it up so that part of a post is hidden and then people can Buy Now to see the rest.
So the post would be protected by Specific Post/Page Access and anyone clicking the link would see part of the post, where I would put my Buy Now Button. After they buy, then they get access to the rest of the post. Is there a way to set up a conditional to check for that?

Thanks Walton, I found it and got it working. I also did what you are looking for with:

[s2If !current_user_is(s2member_level0)]<a href="http://link to buy button">buy now</a>[/s2If]

[s2If current_user_is(s2member_level0)] content [/s2If]

in this case if not a free member "level0" they see a buy button, if they are logged in as a free member or higher they see the content

hope that helps.
