Sell Tangible Products with s2Member?

I was under the impression that I could sell tangible products with s2member and paypal pro forms but I can’t seem to figure out how to do that.

I have 2 products I sell. I also want to have a 14 day free trial for each product. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Todd.

s2Member wasn’t designed to sell tangible products, but to sell and manage access to content in WordPress.

Despite that, I think some users have found ways to do it, where they sold the access to a page where the user would get access to a page and then the site owner would ship the product. I’m not sure how that’d work for you.

If you give some more info about your product and how you give a trial for a tangible product, I could maybe suggest an idea.

I hope that helps. :)

I have most of it figured out now. One snag I have is that I’m trying to populate the billing address in the paypal pro forms with custom fields I created during the users registration.

My first test was putting my custom field’s code %%address%% in the value of the form, that doesn’t work. Gonna keep trying ….

Okay so found this here :

<?php
add_action("ws_plugin__s2member_during_configure_user_registration", "my_function");
function my_function($vars_from_s2member = array())
{
extract($vars_from_s2member);
/* Here are a few variables now available to you here.
$role (s2member_level1, s2member_level2, etc)
$level = (level number of access now granted)
$email, $login, $ip, $custom, $subscr_id, $subscr_gateway
$fname, $lname, $name, $pass, $user_id (WP User ID), $ccaps
$user (a WP_User_object), $user->ID (the User's ID in WordPress)
$fields (an array of Custom Registration Fields for s2Member) */
}
?>

Going to see if I can get this to work.

As you can tell I don’t do php … where do I add this to have access to the variables? Does it need to go into my functions.php file or maybe my s2-hacks.php file … I can’t seem to get access to these variables that it gets … Or am I just going at this wrong …

I’m getting tired but I think I am doing this correctly … Here is what I have in my s2-hacks.php file.

<?php
/*GET USERS CUSTOM FIELDS ETC*/
add_action("ws_plugin__s2member_during_configure_user_registration", "my_function");
function my_function($vars_from_s2member = array())
{
extract($vars_from_s2member);
/* Here are a few variables now available to you here.
$role (s2member_level1, s2member_level2, etc)
$level = (level number of access now granted)
$email, $login, $ip, $custom, $subscr_id, $subscr_gateway
$fname, $lname, $name, $pass, $user_id (WP User ID), $ccaps
$user (a WP_User_object), $user->ID (the User's ID in WordPress)
$fields (an array of Custom Registration Fields for s2Member) */
var_dump($fields);
echo "First Name: ";
echo $fname;
echo $role;
echo $level;
echo $email;
echo $login;
}
?>

Then in one of my pages php template I am calling:

<?php do_action("ws_plugin__s2member_during_configure_user_registration", "my_function"); ?> 

What I am getting is:

NULL First Name: 

What am I doing wrong?
