    I've been looking for the answer to this for two days.... I'm selling different types of websites, and am linking to my amember install with a price group. Once the user visits amember, I'd like them to only see that price group.

    I really wanted people to buy the product upon signup, but some don't do it right away. When they come back and sign in, they don't see the product group because it's a negative product group, so they can't buy. Making all groups positive would just show all products, which won't work.

    For example, if they visit because they're interested in a Drupal website, I'd like them to only be able to buy a Drupal site. Maybe there'd be a monthly/yearly option, but that's it. I don't want them to see options for basic hosting, or any other product.

    How can I do this? It seems like there's two (or three) possibilities:

    1. Have a product group where people who sign up for this free/hidden product are then able to add their subscription for the paid product. The free product shouldn't really show up as a product - it's just a way to store what they're interested in. I'd like it to appear in just one step.

    2. Somehow save their initial product group in the database, then use that to filter in member.php

    3. Other method of saving the initial product group?

    Thanks.

    You can cookie them with the price group info.

    How about creating a clone of the original product, and have the original product with a negative price group, show only on signup page, and then have that cloned product with a positive price group, limit it only to members page?

    Brilliant. I think that's exactly what I need.
