s2member content drip php code not working

I’m using the ‘PHP Execution’

<?php if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS >= 30){ ?>
    Drip content to Members that started paying you at least 30 days ago.
<?php } ?>

 

This results in

= 30){ ?>

being printed on the page, and thus the code not working.

it’s something to do with the ‘greater than’ sign, since using the ‘less than’ sign doesn’t show on the page, though can’t be used for content dripping.

I’ve tried escaping it using \ but that doesn’t make any difference.

Any ideas?

Are you using the HTML Editor in WordPress? (The Visual Editor must never be used when using any type of PHP execution plugin.)

What happens if you put the following on a page?

<?php echo 'My code sample.'; ?>

And what about this?

<?php if(2 > 1) { echo '2 is greater than 1'; } ?>

It sounds to me like you either have a problem with the PHP Execution plugin not working properly (which could be caused by a plugin conflict) or you have a strange server configuration that is messing with the way PHP Execution works.

Hi Ramm,

That works.

<?php if(2 > 1) { ?> <strong>echo '2 is greater than 1';</strong> <?php } ?>

also works.

Which means there must be some thing odd in the HTML of my content I guess.

Any idea what I should be looking for?

Hi Ramm,

Atfer more testing…

This works…

<?php if (1 > 2) { ?> <strong>2 is greater than 1</strong> <?php } else { ?> <em>1 is not greater than 2</em> <?php } ?>

This Doesn’t…

<?php if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS >= 7){ ?>

<?php } else { ?>
<strong>Sorry, [s2Get constant="S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_FIRST_NAME" /]</strong>

<?php } ?>

I get

= 7){ ?>  

printed on the page and both parts of the html print.

======================

Furthermore….

I’ve now put the code into this reply below without the code tags, and the same thing happens here on your site. It executes the php, or rather tries to…

= 7){ ?>

It looks like maybe your WordPress install is having trouble using the s2Member constants (i.e., S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS). The next step is to disable all other plugins except s2Member and see if it works then. If that doesn’t fix it, I suggest also trying to switch to the default WordPress theme (e.g., TwentyEleven).

These code samples work (I’m personally using them on my own site), so the problem is somewhere with your site or server configuration. We just need to keep narrowing it down until we figure out where the problem is.

Very odd things going on, but yes it does work (of course, lol). It seems that something extra was getting in when I cut and pasted – I have no idea what. I have been able to get the exact results I want now, but at one stage had the same code twice on the same page – the first didn’t work, the second did. Very odd, but at least I know it can happen and all I need to do is delete the code (even the page, once I have copied the content) and start again.

Thanks for your help Raam!

PAF :)

Thanks for the update, Paul. Glad to hear you got it working. :)
