Question about Protecting single posts

[beyonddesign]

Great plugin guys. Amazing...Just have one question...

Would this plugin with the new single post protection buy buttons allow me to sell a single wordpress theme that gives access to the theme download page, tutorial page as well as any forum pages for the same theme? I guess I am saying can I sell access to multiple pages with one buy now button?

Also, I understand that they don't need to be a member, so how does my site know that they've previously paid for access to that page in the future?

Thanks so much! I know you're very busy!

Thanks for the great question. Not currently. The Single-Page Access feature is relatively new. We are still working on some improvements in this area. That being said, here is a suggestion for you.

On the Single-Page that you're selling access to, you could set a cookie that your other pages can check for. Since the cookie can only be set by that particular Single-Page, which is protected from public access; your other Pages would check for the existence of this cookie. You would allow Customers to access those additional pages if they have the cookie.

To answer your question... s2Member builds Single-Page Access Links, which automatically expire after a specific amount of time. You configure this expiration limit whenever you create the Single-Page Button. You'll want to grab a copy of the latest version of s2Member, which allows you to configure the expiration time for Single-Page Access Links.
