My site will not be a “members” site, I will be selling items on a per download basis. Thanks!

s2Member doesn’t handle downloads this way. Instead it gives X number of downloads per X amount of time based on Membership Level. If you need to do things this way, you might try putting your download links on Posts, and sell Specific Post/Page Access to give your Users the ability to grab links separately from eachother.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Specific Post/Page (Buy Now) Forms

Thank you for your inquiry.

No, I’m afraid s2Member doesn’t have functionality to do this directly. You might try enabling some of s2Member’s extra columns in your Users list to see if you can differentiate your Users that way.

Thank you for your inquiry.

If you need to change the image via JavaScript or CSS, the easiest way to accomplish this is to generate a link from the Button’s code and create your own button with HTML that you can play with. You can change the Button to output a URL by changing the output attribute to url.

Thank you for your inquiry.

How can we use our own button graphics with generated shotcodes?

Details: We need to link our graphics with the shortcode, so they will become one.

CCBill buttons come with an image attribute. You can change the image that’s displayed that way.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ccBill® Buttons -› Shortcode Attributes (Explained)

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

Can you check your /s2member-logs/ directory, and see if there are any .log files there? You can have a .htaccess file there, but s2Member won’t validate your installation if you have any .log files still there.

Thanks for your patience.

I’ve run some testing, and it appears that the reason this is happening is only to do with the fact that these members haven’t done anything in your forums yet. I just tested this myself and I was able to work with it flawlessly, but I did notice this issue as well. I will mention this to Jason. I haven’t heard back from him yet, but at this point I think you should be good-to-go for now. If Jason gets back to me with a possible fix I’ll let you know, but I believe this is mostly just a visual bug.

Thank you for your inquiry.

Can the full paid version of your plugin let registered users subscribe to specific post categories so they get emailed each time a new post is added or edited?

Not directly, no. However s2Member does allow you to sign up Users of different membership levels to different MailChimp/AWeber lists here:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers

If you wanted you could have Paid Users of certain levels sign up to different lists, and have your lists update Users on the new Posts that way. Otherwise, you might try finding another plugin to go along with s2Member that would add this functionality.

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

Our billing department has received the details for this and is working on this now. Thank you very much for your patience.

Add items to sell, etc.

s2Member doesn’t directly integrate with any shopping carts directly. The nature of the plugin is to sell things in one subscription, and s2Member doesn’t support multiple subscriptions or a cart, so integrating one is a problem. If you do decide that you absolutely need a shopping cart for your site and you want to use s2Member, you’ll need to use the information here to pass the product information/change pricing based on what’s in the User’s cart:

Knowledge Base » Using Variables In A Shortcode

This calls for custom code, so we can’t help much in this regard as per our Support Policy.

If you need further assistance, we recommend http://jobs.wordpress.net, or another freelance web site where WordPress® experts are offering their expertise through a bid on your project.

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

This is usually caused by an incorrect setup with your PayPal IPN. Could you check your Log files (turn it on if you don’t have it on, and do a test transaction), and see if:

1. There is a log file being generated

and 2. This log file does not error with every response

If you’re not sure how to read the log file, but it exists let us know and send us a Dashboard login here. We’ll take a look:

s2Member® » Private Contact Form

Thanks for the info.

We’re actually also in the middle of development of the next major version of s2Member, which will have many more features and (last I heard) support for a cart itself. Thanks for the heads up, though!

Thanks for the information. If you’d like you can use your “patched” file in your installation for now by taking your edited copy of this file and loading it in as a Must-Use Plugin. I’ll send this code to Jason for him to look over and consider for a future release of s2Member, but for now you’ll have to have the plugin’s developer use the information from my last reply. Thanks.

Thank you for your inquiry.

The first two URL that s2Member gives you (your Approval/Denial URLs) are the URLs that your Users will be directed to after checkout on success/failure. s2Member needs these URLs to be set to these so that it can get information that’s passed to the URL when the User is brought back.

You can set all of these URLS up within a Subaccount’s settings. This article goes over the process for the Post URLs, but the Approval/Denial URLs are nearby:
