PayPal Pro Free Registration Form issue

Hello,

I have disabled open registrations on my client’s site and I’m using the PayPal Pro Free registration Form shortcode instead. The idea is to set free registrations to s2member level 1, without sending them to PayPal. The shortcode I’m using looks like this:

[s2Member-Pro-PayPal-Form register="1" level="1" ccaps="trial" desc="Signup now, it's Free!" custom="mydomainurl" tp="0" tt="D" /]

The issue is that occasionally, users that register via this form are awarded with a “Subscriber” role (or level 0) and I can’t figure out why. It’s a big issue because level 0 registrations don’t get what they are supposed to.

I do have a hook that does some custom stuff when trial registrations are processed. It looks something like this:

add_action('ws_plugin__s2member_during_configure_user_registration', 's2_trial_rego');
 function s2_trial_rego($vars = array()) {
 if ($vars['_pmr']['ws_plugin__s2member_custom_reg_field_s2member_level']==1) {
 // do some stuff
 }
 }

The code above gets hit for every free registration, which is what I expect. But when I log into wp-admin, there is a “Subscriber” role next to the user and it clearly should be s2member Level 1.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Actually I just tested level 2 registrations as well. They also assign users with a Subscriber level 0. Am I doing something obviously wrong? This worked perfectly before.

I do have heavy wp-super-cache in place and I’m wondering if that has something to do with this.

Fixed it. I took a look at all my hooks and one of them was handling 404 redirects by hooking into ‘template_redirect’ function. Lesson learnt – don’t hook into core functions without testing them from every angle :-)

Glad you found and solved the problem Marko. :)
