Membership Package template

Postby RachStar » November 2nd, 2011, 8:16 am

Hey guys, I'm new to all of this. I have the s2Member plugin installed on my site but I want to know where I get a template for my membership packages from. As in 'Basic, Silver, Gold, Platinum' type of thing with different layouts for me to pick from.

Please can you help?
Thanks ;)

You mean the labels for each member level?

If I'm being totally honest I don't know what a label is! I want a page that when you click on the memebership packages tab it opens up and the veiwers can see what they get for each package. Is that what you call a label? If so where do I go to find different label layouts?

Label: A name given to something or someone to categorise them as part of a particular social group. This is the definition Wiktionary gives us (this is the definition for what I'm using).

I believe you want it to be level specific right?
So a level can't some things but other levels can right?

There's labels , also known as your membership levels in this context, which define access to whatever you can view/have access to. So if you have level 3 membership, it has access to levels 0, 1, 2, and 3.

http://www.s2member.com/general-options-overview-video/

Check out this video, I'm sure it will help you out with everything you need to know, it goes pretty into great detail on setting alot of this stuff up within the options.

Then once you have the membership levels figured out and setup, you can utilize advanced conditionals http://www.s2member.com/advanced-conditionals-video/ to diversify what each member sees in your given post template.

There's 2 ways to diversify what is viewed or able to be seen using conditionals , quick run through:

Code: Select all
<?php if(current_user_can("access_s2member_level1")) { ?>
Cancel Button Goes Here
<?php } ?>


This allows you to place the cancel button text as long as the user logged in has ACCESS to s2member_level1, remember, if a level 4 user goes to this page he'll see it as well because he has access to level (level 4 has access to levels 0,1,2,3) ..

If you wanted to just show it to a level 1 user account I believe it goes like this:

Code: Select all
<?php if(current_user_can("s2member_level1")) { ?>
Cancel Button Goes Here
<?php } ?>


I believe taking out the access part of it allows only users with level 1 access to view that page.

Get exec-php plugin by Wordpress and plug those codes into a post/page template to get started and work around with it, but also watch the video on advanced conditionals, Jason Caldwell explains it alot better and in more depth.

Hopefully this answers what you're looking for!

Eduan- I know what a label is! Lol. I just thought it was a name for something techy that I didn't know about. :D

Thanks for your responses Ryanseo and Eduan! I appreciate it. I must be asking the wrong question though. I'm not asking about access issues. I just want a layout to display my packages. As in four columns with:

Basic Silver Gold Platinum
What you get what you get what you get what you get
Blah blah Blah blah Blah blah Blah blah

And wondered if wordpress have special templateS for this. Do people just make their own or are there specific places that offer these kinds of templates?

Okay, :lol:
Glad you found it, well for future reference you do it using HTML tables, atleast that's how I would do it. :)

Ah yes, I see now what you'd like to do. Yes, sorry I did misunderstand your question.

I'm not sure if there is actually but IF there isn't, as people (myself included) do their own usually but I highly recommend you check out: http://codecanyon.net/searches?term=Pri ... type=files - These are paid options for CSS3 Pricing Tables already created for you to utilize within your own templates..

Some free resources for pricing table creation:

1. http://webdesign.tutsplus.com/tutorials ... l-and-css/
2. http://css-tricks.com/6557-feature-table-design/ - this utilizes Jquery as well inside the form , not sure how fluent you are with Jquery but this could help as well

And finally, to further push your imagination towards building a good pricing table you can check out this link which contains examples and good practices of package pricing table utilization to get expert tips and a good knowledge of how yours should look: http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/inspirati ... spiration/ - after going through it myself , I came up with a number of good ideas for a hosting site I'm building right now for it's package pricing template page.

The codecanyon link contains a slew of premade CSS3 Pricing Tables (and actual css3 pricing table wordpress plugins that will integrate for you, you could also use the simple html/css3 renditions to implement as well if you know a deal of html/css and can manipulate the code to your liking) for you to choose from and utilize for your packages template. Alot of these can be integrated very simply and may only require you to change out the text inside the boxes to get the desired result and minor coloring. The one downfall with this option is that these cost money (but not much at all really for what you get!)

The free links contain full tutorials on how to create a pricing package itself (as well as demo files to download i believe) using html/css and may help you with some foundation knowledge on how pricing tables are setup, etc.

Hope this helps
