Registration Email

I’m testing various member wordpress plug-ins for a client. I really like S2 over the others I have looked at. However client is hung up that in S2 when using paypal buttons along with a free trial, the customer appears to always hit the message to check their email & click on the link before being able to finalize subscription upon returning from paypal. We don’t see with other plug-ins like Wishlist. They go right to the finalize registration page. Is there anyway around the email confirm in S2? (Client doesn’t want to use PayPal Pro either). Thanks!

Thank you for your inquiry.

The User having to check their email and use that link is a way for s2Member to validate the User, as well as protect the registration page. The link in this email is special in that it creates a specific link that will allow Users to sign up for the level that they paid for.

In s2Member Pro, this page is not required. You can send Users to a different page telling them that they need to check their email using the success attribute that is enabled in s2Member Pro, or you can use the PayPal Pro-Forms, and have Users register before they check out.

These Pro Forms do not require PayPal Pro. You can find information on this here:
