s2Member - Start Term on Future Date

#1

Is it possible in the stock s2Member setup to purchase memberships that start on future dates? Example, I pick a membership type, then use a calendar picker to get a start date, pay, but do not have access until the start date? Anyone have something setup like this?

A calendar picker is not provided in s2Member itself, but you can configure payment Buttons or Pro-Forms (s2Member Pro) with X number of free days, which is the same as delaying the billing until a future date.

You can also do what is referred to as a Dynamic Start Date (requires some hacking). See: http://s2member.com/kb-article/specifying-a-future-start-date-for-a-recurring-subscription-aka-custom-eot/

I saw that and unfortunately it’s a completely different scenario, applicable only to recurring subscriptions, as noted at the top of the article.

My scenario: Use picker to choose date in future, no free days or access until that day, then one time payment term begins on chosen date.

I have Pro and wonder if someone has done a Pro-Form mod that adds the “free” days without access, if that’s even possible.
