Protect The Video On Pqage But Not The Conten

I have a video course where i need to protect access to the video ONLY but not the text content under the video becaise i want that ranked in Google SERPS.

Do you have a shortcode for this?

Where’s the MailChimp Integration? Is this available on the free version?

Hello Brad,

You can find the MailChimp integration under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers -› MailChimp®.

Regarding the file protection, yes, check this video for that: Video » s2Member® File Downloads (Complete Series)

Hope this helps. :)

Too easy!

How about spam registrations?

Is there a captcha plugin or something to fix this?

Hello Brad,

If you have the pro version of s2Member then there is a parameter you can pass in to pro-forms which implements a CAPTCHA field, although there are plugins like Blue Captcha (recommended) that do this with all the forms, although this plugin doesn’t integrate with pro-forms.

Hope this helps. :)

How about SI Captcha? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/

Simply needing to protect the video from being viewed not downloaded because its already protected by Vimeo pro.

Is there a shortcode i can wrap the video in to protect it and leave the text public?

Well you can always try s2Member shortcode conditionals. Which you can find under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Simple/Shortcode Conditionals.

Give me an example of a shortcode which i can use to protect the video from being viewable by non logged in members please.

I need the text publically viewable

[s2If is_user_logged_in()]
Put the video that is only to be accessible while logged in.
[/s2If]

Put the text outside the code so it is always viewable.

Hope it helps.
The conditionals are such a powerful feature of s2Member!

Didn’t work.

When i use the url to that post after wrapping the video in the shortcodes you provided me, it redirects to the login/registration page even if i change the post level restrictions to zero.

Hum… maybe a tech support can find an explanation because i use that code extensively in my site without any problem. I have my videos on Amazon S3 through Easy Video Player 2 but that is what i do.

Here is an example: http://scrapbookcampus.com/webinars/woct2012/
If you are not logged in, you will see a sale pitck. If you are logged in, you will see the video.

Sorry. My mistake. It did work. Forgot to clear the browser cache. hahaha my bad

Thanks for your help Cassel

I did also need to change the post level restriction from 0 to blank.

Question: Was wondering if i could show a picture of the video with a sign that its for subscribers only?

At present, its simply text with no indication there’s a video to subcribe for watching!!

Sure you can.

[s2If is_user_logged_in()]
Put the video that is only to be accessible while logged in.
[/s2If]

[s2If !is_user_logged_in()]
Put a graphic or an indication of “please log in to view this video”
[/s2If]
Put the text outside the code so it is always viewable to everyone, logged in or not.
