 * I have read the 1-star reviews and NONE of them I found I could relate to. We
   were searching for a membership plugin and we came across WPBeginner’s article
   on their recommendations for membership plugins and found s2Member there. WPBeginner
   is huge in the WordPress community! We are seriously impressed with this plugin
   and we highly recommend it. It was compatible with our theme’s login and registration
   and has been completely compatible with our theme all-around. We were able to
   restrict our content how we pleased. Mainly, we show partial content for some
   of our forums for logged out users. We use a bbPress based theme, which works
   seamlessly. Another thing that we were drawn to was the fact that this plugin
   has a free version and a one-time payment for their pro version, which includes
   future updates. We also felt very confident in the fact that they have been doing
   this for years so there is a vested interest.
 * You can restrict content with shortcodes, PHP conditionals, PHP query conditionals,
   custom capabilities, and a lot more. We have not found ANY limitations to what
   we are trying to accomplish. Everything for us has been a very smooth process.
 * Love the fact that you can create a membership program or sell an unlimited amount
   of individual content. The user does not even have to leave your site in order
   to make a purchase! I also love how they immediately give you step-by-step instructions
   to get started; the guide was perfect and I would’ve been lost without it. Everything
   was straight-forward and user-friendly!
 * Moreover, the videos are pretty dated but they all still work just fine. I have
   watched most of them and found them very useful. s2Member also has a MASSIVE 
   database of information to help you. If you have a question, it most likely already
   has been answered. If not, they have a straight-forward forum where the community
   and/or staff has helped us when we had questions. They have phenomenal support
   and I cannot thank them enough.
 * Overall, they exceeded our expectations! Try the free version, you literally 
   have nothing to lose. We are confident that you will get really good use out 
   of it!
