 * Hi,
    first of all thanks for your amazing plugin.
 * I’m building a website where users can read technical articles paying a subscription.
   
   Articles are organized in categories and are associated to custom fields.
 * In particular, every article is identified by:
 * **1. COUNTRY (a WordPress category, multiple choice possible). **
    For example:
   USA, China, Japan Different subscription fees will be calculated according to
   the number of countries selected: less than 10 countries, between 10 and 20 countries,
   more than 20 countries.
 * **2. TOPIC (a custom taxonomy, multiple choice possible). **
    For example: Books,
   Depliants Different subscription fees will be calculated according to the number
   of topics selected: less than 3 topics, between 3 and 10 topics, more than 10
   topics.
 * **3. FIELDS (a custom taxonomy, multiple choice possible). **
    For example: packaging
   Different subscription fees will be calculated according to the number of fields
   selected: less than 3 fields, between 3 and 10 fields, more than 10 fields.
 * The TOTAL price of the subscription will be determined by the number of countries,
   topics and fields selected AND by the size of the company that buys the subscription(
   4 ranges: 1-10, 11-50, 51-99 and 100 employees).
 * Let’s make an example. I’m a company with 20 employees (cost: 100$) and I want
   to read articles:
    - about 5 countries (USA, Mexico, Brazil, Cuba and Canada) —> 250$;
    - about 2 topics (Books and Depliants) —> 150$;
    - about 1 field (packaging) —>100$
 * My total subscription is 600$ per year and I will be able to see on the website:
    - articles in WordPress categories USA, Mexico, Brazil, Cuba and Canada.
    - Within this categories, articles identified by custom fields “Books”, “Depliants”
      and “Packaging”
 * Is there a way to build this on S2Member?
    What I’m interested in is mainly the
   ability of **defining correctly what contents the user can see**. I don’t necessarily
   need the subscription amount to be calculated automatically – I may also insert
   it manually in the backoffice if it’s possible.

 * This sounds like you need to use forms, which are part of the Pro version. So
   you need to look at s2member’s own website at [s2member.com](http://www.s2member.com).

 * Hi KTS915,
    thanks for your response.
 * I appreciate your suggestion and I must confess it’s still a bit too vague for
   me: can you be a little more specific about where to look? Why should I use forms?
   
   How can they help me achieving the structure above?
 * I’ve read that I can customize the subscription form (for example to include 
   the company size), but what about the other parameters?
 * Thanks!

 * Well, I suppose you really have two options. One would be to use forms, which
   should allow the subscribers to pick country, topic, and fields (perhaps by a
   drop-down box in each case). See [http://www.s2member.com/kb/pro-forms/](http://www.s2member.com/kb/pro-forms/)
 * This will probably need some scripting to get the price to generate correctly
   before purchase, which is why I suggested you go to the Pro forum for some help.(
   When there, see Help/Docs – Contact a Human). But that does mean you’ll need 
   the Pro package.
 * The alternative is that you essentially pre-package all the possible combinations,
   and then offer them for a price that covers the whole bundle. But that doesn’t
   sound like it’s the model you had in mind, and it might require you to come up
   with a confusing number of alternative packages.
