Change / remove the text in download prompt

HI,
How can I change the text in the download promt/
It now says:
— Confirm File Download —

You`ve downloaded 3 protected files in the last 365 days.

You`re entitled to UNLIMITED downloads though ( so, no worries )

I would like to change that.
I tried the code (s2-hacks.php) from the thread here but it did not change anything

Thanks,

Hi Dan,

I believe that this code should work, but you’ll want to create a Must Use plugin with the name s2-a.php, or s2member-a.php. These file names give access to your Must-Use plugin to s2Member’s JavaScript processes, which is what you need to do.

Hi Bruce,
Thanks for your answer, I added a filed named s2-a.php with the above code into the mu-plugins folder inside the wp-content folder. (wp-content/plugins/mu-plugins/s2-a.php)
also tried remaining the file to s2member-a.php

Still getting the original prompt message.

Hi Dan,

I’m going to send Jason a message regarding this. In the meantime, you can edit this directly from /s2member/includes/s2member-min.js.

Ok, thanks
will be waiting for your update
I think it would be best to have an option to configure the “system messages” from the s2 member admin – I’ll vote to that…

Hi,
Any news from Jason regarding this issue?
If it is possible, I would like to remove the JS prompt all together.
When a user clicks to download a file he will be directed to the normal browser download window.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan, you can remove the prompt using the [hilite mono]skip_confirmation[/hilite] parameter. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options -› Shortcode Attributes & API Functions -> skip_confirmation[/hilite]

Thanks
But is there a way to remove the S2 prompt alltogether from all downloads?
I already have tens of files and would not like to change all the url’s with the shortcode.
In this project I will not need any JS prompt for the download.

Dan

I am using advanced custom fields to enter the URL for the file download, and it’s working fine.
When trying to integrate the php code for the skip_confirmation it’s stops working.
This is the code I am using – can you help out:

<a href="<?php echo s2member_file_download_url(array( "file_download" => "the_sub_field('download_link')", "skip_confirmation" =>true)); ?>"><img src="<?php the_sub_field('download_icon'); ?>" /><?php the_sub_field('file_name'); ?></a>
 

thanks
Dan

So [hilite mono]the_sub_field[/hilite] function just returns a string or does it echo it?

I see [hilite code][/hilite] without an echo, although that’s obviously what’ll happen. But if it echoes, can you really use it to set the value of [hilite mono]"file_download"[/hilite] in the array?

Hi,
The sub_field does echo out the name or the url, that’s why I wanted to add it after the “file_download” part.
(The icon is showing up and so does the file name)
But if this can’t work , can I disable the prompt entirely?

Thank you
Dan

Thanks for the heads up on this thread :-)

@ Dan Stramer

~ Thanks for your patience. I apologize for the delay guys.

You can set this global JavaScript variable to a value of true, to disable ALL confirmation prompts.

var ws_plugin__s2member_skip_all_file_confirmations = true;

So for instance, you might have an MU plugin that does this for you.

Please create this directory and file:
/wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-hacks.php
(NOTE: these are MUST USE plugins, see: http://codex.wordpress.org/Must_Use_Plugins)
(See also: http://www.s2member.com/kb/hacking-s2member/)

<?php
add_action('wp_head', 'disable_s2_js_confirmations');
function disable_s2_js_confirmations()
	{
		echo '<script type="text/javascript">';
		echo 'var ws_plugin__s2member_skip_all_file_confirmations = true;';
		echo '</script>';
	}

You won’t need to add skip_confirmation onto the end of your links now. You’ve disabled these globally.

Thank you very much Jason, that did the trick!

Another question if I may – is it possible to have all child pages of a protected parent page to be also automatically protected? Or do I have to set a protection level for each page separately?

Thanks,
Dan

You’re VERY welcome.

Can you please start another topic for your question about pages. Thanks!

Jason,

Thanks for the info because I have had the same questions too. However, you have to forgive me because I’m not a coder and I don’t understand where I am supposed to put this code:

var ws_plugin__s2member_skip_all_file_confirmations = true;

Is there someplace under Appearance>Editor>?? that I should go to and place this line?

thanks!

Joanne

Thanks for the follow-up :-)
