Missing Registration link & no General Options -> Open Regis

[fillsee226]

I installed S2Member a couple of days ago and I’m noticing that there is no Registration Link available on the Login Page. When researching I’m finding there is no General Options -> Open Registration option as indicated. Network Options indicates that S2Member has taken control of Allow Open Restration = User.
I have Multisite Registration Configuration set to = Yes (Allow open registration / Free subscription at level #0). Did I miss something in the configuration or has something gone wrong on the install?
I’m on the latest Wordpress (3.0+) and multisite.

Hi there. Thanks for the great question.

When s2Member is running on a Multisite Network, the Open Registration panel that is normally listed under General Options, is instead moved over into the Multisite (Config) panel.

Now, there are two ways to run s2Member on a Multisite Network.

1. Membership Only ( the standard )
2. ( As a Blog Farm ) - this enables a whole new ball game.

If you are using Membership Only ( the standard ), and Open Registration is turned on, then you should see the Registration link on the login page. However, if you configured s2Member to run as a Blog Farm, and Open Registration is turned on, you will NOT see that link, because when s2Member is running as a Blog Farm, all registrations take place under a different registration form.

Instead of: /wp-login.php?action=register ( the standard )
Blog Farms use: /wp-signup.php

Thanks Jason for fast response. I did confirm changing to Membership only gave me back the Registration link so my site's functioning properly. I haven't made it through all you videos yet but does any of them talk about setting up a blog farm and the associated registration form setup?

No, there are no videos on these topics yet.
