    Hi,

    I was wondering if anyone is having success integrating S2member with WPGeodirectory and since I really don’t know the strong points of S2Member, with all the features of WPGD why would you want to use it in the first place. What added benefit does it actually provide?

    I am using s2member with GD.
    It would not add any benefit to GD that I can see.
    s2member is only useful if you have some pages you want to restrict to the general public. For GD you want everybody to be able to create an account to either create a listing or save favourites.
    For the moment GD does not have a possibility for users to change their password, and that is possible with s2member. But I am sure that feature is planned for GD.

    Thanks for the input, I know this might not be directly related to the functionality of GD but I am trying to incorporate a membership plugin that will work with GD, I have used a fantastic plugin with Geotheme for the last few years called CiviCRM, but I just can’t get the public search to format so that it looks professional.

    My goal is to use GD for our members and the public to find other members but the top priority is to have a very robust profile for the member. It looks like GD with do this but I’m wondering if adding S2member would be a good complementary plugin. We have over 50 fields in our application (Add listing) and another very high priority is the ability to search on any field in the application. It looks like GD will do this, do you know if S2member pro will do this also. I’m having a hard time getting a definitive answer from the folks at S2member. I need the search to be both for the public and member side.

    Thanks again for your help

    Not too sure I understand, but if your each “member” is a listing, then why would you need anything else?
    Your members can update any field, with the payment plugin you can create different levels with different profiles etc.
    A membership plugin would only be useful if you want to restrict certain pages and posts to some people.
    With s2member free you can protect any page of your site, including GD pages.
