a) the home page has teaser text with READ MORE links which need to open into a modal REGISTER / LOGIN window (I trigger basically the default wordpress/login.php but remain on the home page). done.

b) that REGISTER button/link takes them to an external link (not PayPal, no Gateway, but another external site which handles registration and payment) and once done they are sent back to the registration page to enter their UserID etc... easy.

c) The WP site I'm setting up will receive (via http referrer) people who are eligible to register to the register.php page (only from that referrer will access be allowed) - we do not control their payment. not yet done. how to interact and set this up with s2Member?

d) once registered they have access to reading the whole site.

e) non-members or logged out members can only see the home page.

Is there anyone who can help me with this? I've been banging my head to no avail :/

I was trying to set this up but can't grasp how to do this.

c) s2Member doesn't do this by default, but you could use a hook and some custom code to check if the referer is the one you want before showing the registration page. You'll probably also need to open free registrations, even if you'll then limit them by referer.

d) You control this with the normal s2Member content restrictions and the account's level and custom capabilities you give.

e) Same as above. You'd probably just set page and post restrictions to "all" in WP Admin -> s2member -> General Options.

Let me know if that helps.

Thank you very much, this gives me some good directions into which to poke

Good.
