Hi,

I hope all you good people are well this weekend.

I was just wondering what is the best way to call whether a new member has confirmed their email?

Please and thank you. :)

Thank you for your inquiry.

I’m very sorry for the delay in response. Thanks for your patience over the weekend.

s2Member doesn’t have any email confirmation processes. If you want to make sure a User’s email is correct, you’d turn off the custom passwords on registration in your Registration/Profile Fields section, so the User will have to have received the email that s2Member sends to be able to log in, because they won’t know their password before that time.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields

Ok , well since you offered I do have one that is important to me.

What is the best way to get decrypt to work on a php file page that is on my domain but not in a WP folder?

I want to decrypt the WP username and ID that I am sending to it as a security check to the PHP I wrote that process’ SMS message sending.

Thanks in advance. :)

Hm, I can’t say I’m very experienced with doing this. In the past I’ve used PHP mcrypt_encode and mcrypt_decode to do encryptions with a secret key. This way you can just keep your key recorded in your external file and in WordPress, and encrypt and decrypt by that key.

These are the PHP.net docs for that function:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.mcrypt-encrypt.php


When I used mcrypt in the past, I found that the cyphers were really confusing. Here’s a tip:

In 2001, the US Government made AES (called Rijndael in PHP) the standard for encryption. If you’re encrypting, the easiest/safest way to do it would be using MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_192, or MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256 as the cypher, and ecb as the mode.

See: http://php.net/manual/en/mcrypt.ciphers.php

I know that’s confusing, but I suppose it’s supposed to be.
