Pro Free Reg Not Overriding Default Reg Page

According to the S2Member Pro inline docs:

Paypal Pro Free Registration Form
Whenever a visitor registers without paying, they’ll automatically become a Free Subscriber, at Level #0.

*Note* the use of this particular Form will override your Open Registration configuration. In other words, making this Form available is the same as turning Open Registration (on). One of the benefits to this functionality, is that it makes it possible for you to integrate this Free Registration Form in creative ways ( i.e. making it available ONLY under certain circumstances ); while still leaving Open Registration (off) throughout the rest of the site.

So, I created a page and added the shortcode:
[s2Member-Pro-PayPal-Form register="1" level="0" ccaps="" desc="Signup now, it's Free!" custom="mysite.com" tp="0" tt="D" captcha="clean" /]

The page works fine, but all the other free registration links still go to the
difficult-to-style page: mysite.com/wp-login.php?action=register

How do I get all the free reg action to point to the Paypal Pro form? (do I need to
turn open registration OFF in the General Options?)

You could do a redirection to your new registration page. In your /wp-content/mu-plugins/ dir, create a file named s2hacks.php and past this code in it:
[hilite pre_code]

I’m confused. What is the point of creating a different registration form if it doesn’t become *the*
registration form? Isn’t that what your documentation is saying?

If a user can trivially enter the other reg page, by putting mysite.com/wp-login.php?action=register into
their web browser, then any use of the Paypal Pro free registration form is overridden.

If you add that redirection, anyone that tries /wp-login.php?action=register would be taken to the new one you created.

I created the suggested file in my /wp-content/plugins directory and it did nothing.

What about adding these two lines to the HTACCESS file:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^action=register$
RewriteRule ^wp-login[.]php$ /myregistration [R,NC,L]

So, it would automatically redirect this:

http://mysite.com/wp-login.php?action=register

to this:

http://mysite.com/myregistration?action=register

J

Yeah, you can use htaccess.

Sorry about my code, it’s too early in the script to have [hilite mono]wp_redirect[/hilite] available, I should have used [hilite mono]header[/hilite].

[hilite pre_code]
http://yoursite.com/my-registration/'); exit; } [/hilite] This works, I just tested it.
