User registration question

#1

I’m using a bridge plugin to link my WP installation with a Xenforo forum. It’s working well between those two as a single login solution, but the Xenword plugin takes over registration. (I’m not fully sure I can change that.) The registration writes to both XF user data table and the default WP data table. After installing s2Member, I didn’t see any new data tables show up, so I assume it uses the default WP data table.

The Xenword plugin includes User Group mapping, so at the very least, each User is put in the default User Group. From there, I suppose a logged in User can subscribe via s2Member and have that information written to the database.

My questions:
Is that set up going to cause any conflicts?
Where does the s2Member information go in the database?

Thank you.

  1. I inject user data from various sites to other sites all the time, and it doesn’t cause s2Member any problems. But I keep the roles synced between sites. The only issue I can see for your setup is if your source installation insists on resetting roles even after a user has changed his or hers.
  2. As you surmised, s2Member uses the regular WP tables, especially users and usermeta.
