Restricting How Many Times Recurring Payment Is Taken?

Hi,

I'm new to this so please forgive me if this is already somewhere else.

I'm looking to start a new site, where the new member will pay each month for 3 months only - the duration of the course - but will then be granted permanent access at the end of the course.

Can this be done?

Hi Simon. :)

Yes, it can be done. It'll be easier in the coming version, but you can still do it in this one.

Create your button to charge the monthly amount. WP Admin -> s2Member -> Paypal Buttons

Then, instead of the shortcode, copy the full code and add
Code: Select all
<input type="hidden" name="srt" value="3" />


Now disable your auto-EOT behavior so he keeps the level after the subscription is over. WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Options -> Automatic EOT Behavior
