  Hi

  I have recently purchased the S2Member integration pack with Pro, for a new site that I am building.

  Questions:
  1 how do I use the S2Member affiliate coupon codes to integrate with Affiliates Pro? In other words: when a new customer subscribes without a link from the affiliate site, how do I connect this customer to the affiliate?

  2 I am struggling to style the pages that use short codes (eg http://eezifind.co.nz/affiliate-zone/affiliate-profile/) – any suggestions (eg) to set the margins?

    1 – Coupon code support is currently being developed for Affiliates Pro and all its integrations including the s2Member integration, it will be available in an updated release shortly.
    2 – You can adjust its appearance quite flexibly with CSS rules. For example, the affiliate profile form is wrapped in <div class=”affiliate-profile”>…</div>.

  I have a presales question regarding s2member, eShop and Affliates Pro.

  I already use s2member and eshop on my site and what I need to know is what Pro versions of your product do I need to purchase to integrate both s2member and eshop?

  Would I need Affliate Pro + s2member Integration Pro + eShop Integration Pro? All 3 products or just Affliate Pro?

  Thanks

    Hi Kim,
    Thanks for asking, it’s enough to get one of the integration packs (at least for now, as the integrations are available only in the packs). So just get the s2Member pack or the eShop pack. I’ll forward the additional plugin to you once you’ve made the order. Make sure to send me a note including the order number.
    Cheers

  I have one more critical question. Your standard Affiliate plugin requires the setting for “anyone can register” to be checked in the WordPress settings. I have s2Member set up with this option disabled as I reserve the free subscriber option for clients. Will I be able to maintain this with the upgrade to the s2Member Pack and will people still be able to register for my Affiliate program or will I have to allow anyone to register?

    You need to allow affiliates to register and that depends on the ‘Anyone can register’ setting, would it be a problem for your clients to be granted affiliate status at the Subscriber level?

  I will have to have a look at my structure. Right now with s2Memeber. Level 0 is free subscribers and I reserve it for clients. I’ll have to make adjustments as this is a members only site with paid subscription levels for those that are not clients.

  I just purchased Affiliates pr+ s2member (am using paypal with s2member) and am a bit confused how I can set different commission for different products.

  Thanks,
  Anita

    Hi Anita,
    Commission rates by membership level aren’t directly supported (yet), it could be done with a custom method though. Do you have any particular requirements for the commissions by product?

      Thank you for your reply,

      I am offering expensive programs and inexpensive subscriptions so the same flat rate or percentage commission for both product categories is not very efficient.

      I was wondering if your Paypal solution would perhaps solve the problem and if those two solutions work together.

        Hi Kento,
        I forgot to mention I also have products with no commissions so being able to set different commission rates for different products is of utmost importance. Please let me know if we can solve this somehow.
        Thank you,
        Anita

          Ok, that would also need to be covered by the custom method. Thanks for clarifying that, I’ll get in touch.

        I think a custom method would be more appropriate, using the PayPal integration wouldn’t be an advantage in this case. Let me check and get back to you on that.

  can this module be used with the Affiliates Pro for WP e-Commerce module? We have a site that has two shopping carts.

    Yes they can be used simultaneously. The referrals from both WP e-Commerce and s2Member would be managed.
