I’m waving my white flag here and asking for some help :)
–ISSUES–
Scenario… After a successful paypal payment the user is auto-returned to the s2members “Auto-Return Page Template” which has my “optional css customizations”.
ISSUE1. It’s not using custom template paypal-return.php. EDIT ISSUE FIXED – this was resolved by moving the file from the child theme directory to the main template directory.
ISSUE2. Although the Member is updated in the database immediately after making the paypal purchase, the user is not recognized as a Level1 member unless they refresh this auto-return url page.
I believe this is due to the site caching the user as unpaid.
EDIT – added the wp_s2member_paid_registration_times to the “ignored query strings” on database caching, but it hasn’t changed anything.
TEMP FIX – Direct users on from the auto-return url to a page open to the public that contains a manual php to check user level from the database. This seemed to resolve the caching issue, but isn’t really ideal.
auto-return URL –
http://mysite.com/?s2member_paypal_return=1&s2member_paypal_return_tra=fnIyOmk0Z3JRQ0hoRE5nbjQxREdLOFhrY0hBdTZVc29jMkVaOmQwYTk5NjgxZDk3MDA4MzM1NGRhNzc3Zjk5MmU5ZWU4fNpBuvirBDEKWegO6I5PMwK8yrFBXXtSri-c0CrerV2GgzlgS45CH-UZC0Z_TYnediDB0ViouOoMe0acWPgWTm3_630D8oLngxd0TwD974Y0Co3o5Lh6lgqdtPw4mbs4bfm4_HaTssewgDabQqmFVaXuPaV5_1w5w46mlz3Mw67zXv0E6H-JikcR4FxgkCJHm7upLGBF2Mujy4yjJlXnodu9Heg3EmKTvjWr9AOuzSIIPhzG-msep0LiIfVFlBbwyiinvgNRhEQgv9gbg08SqGcwfERIPenKcAIWe2XwpZ6UV4EPsE8Soqc78zKtS1CeFhe9gpKv0wk1lM7p6W686D4JlPgLVAIvKzknxkS8lN9M2X5sNMpB9qXd_HoGg4u9mw
ISSUE3. The paypal user receives the s2member generic email (not my custom email in the s2-hacks.php) and nothing at all to the wp site member.
EDIT – after moving s2-hacks.php to a “/mu-plugins/” directory, the customized email for the paypal email worked , but only after including wp-config.php to the file. still no emails sending with the wp_mail function inside the function my_s2_modification_msg. (updated current version of s2-hacks.php below)
EDIT – previous email with s2-hacks.php in the “/plugins/” quoted as follows… (obviously it just couldn’t find the s2-hacks.php file)
Thank you! You’ve been updated to:
FREE for 6 months, then $2 yearly (recurring for ongoing access).
Please log back in now.

–SPECS–
wp 3.4.2
s2member Version 120703 + s2Member Pro v120703
All customers already have level0 free accounts before paying for Level1 access.
Server Check… Got the test email, success.
w3total Cache Options…
turned off Object Caching on w3totalcache
EDIT – added wp_s2member_paid_registration_times to “ignored query strings” on Database caching.
PayPal Options…
PayPal® Pro Forms / Recurring Profile Behavior: Real-Time/Direct Pay
Automatic EOT Behavior…
Auto-Return…
1. “Auto-Return Page Template” with “optional css customizations”.
2 . /wp-contents/themes/mychildtheme/paypal-return.php custom template inside my active themes (which is a child theme) root folder. EDIT – moved to /wp-contents/themes/maintheme/paypal-return.php
s2-Hacks…
/wp-content/plugins/s2-Hacks.php (EDIT – moved file to /wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-Hacks.php) contains code to generate a custom email when members are upgraded. In the code we have it set to find the user by the $vars[“user_id”] then email the site member, the paypal payer, and site support via wp_mail.
