Thank you for reporting this important issue.

s2Member Pro (not including the s2Member Framework / Free version) cannot be installed via the plugins panel. You need to upload the plugin via FTP.

See: s2Member® » Pro » Install/Upgrade Instructions

Thank you for your inquiry.

Is there any Progress to make things easier for setting up a own payment provider.

We’re planning on making this easier with the next major version of s2Member, but currently it’s still a bit tricker than we’d like. That being said there are now two good ways to integrate your own payment gateway. The first being with PayPal IPN w/ Proxy Key, which allows a developer to pass information from your payment gateway as though the transaction was being processed by PayPal. The second with with our Remote Operations API.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› PayPal® IPN Integration -› IPN w/ Proxy Key

See Also: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Remote Operations API

Second is, can you please have a look at

https://www.sofort.com/eng-INT/

which is one of the leading european payment providers, implementing their Service would be a great argument for the EU market for s2member.

I’ll add in a request for this, but we’re currently focusing on keeping the current release of s2Member up-to-date with the payment gateways we do support, and working on our next major release of s2Member. I wouldn’t say there’s a great chance of integration with this gateway happening soon.

I also noticed that when I make a selection on the Membership options page, that the home page automatically changes from showing recent posts to the specified page for the Membership. To me that doesn’t sound right.

That’s very strange. It sounds like something’s up with the way your theme is querying your Posts. I couldn’t really tell you what’s causing this based on that, though. :-\

So in no ways this is going to help me, am I right?

Yeah this isn’t going to help you in this situation.

Also, can you show me a sample pro form code which has a 100% Free Trial Period? (I have tried from my end, but all I get is ‘User authentication failed.’ error)How to include coupon feature in such a free trial period form?

A Pro Form with a Free Trial will have a ta attribute with the value of 0 or 0.00.

: I ll look into this. I understand that I need to trigger an action related to coupon code and update the DB, whenever any s2member gets registered. Can you guide me in what way, I can achieve this?

Not really, this is outside of the scope of what s2Member’s making possible. I can tell you that you’ll want to use the update_user_option() function, though.

See: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/update_user_option

Thanks for the reply. So just to confirm, if we purchase the unlimited licence, we can install S2MemberPro on each installation separately without having to purchase the licence again right? If you can confirm this, then we will go ahead and purchase the unlimited licence.

That’s correct.

It’s called Spectrum from WooThemes

Thanks. I’ll have our development team run testing on this, but this is out of scope of our support. I’m totally unaware of any reason this would be happening because of s2Member, but if there is a reason that may be widespread we’ll let you know. In the mean time I would ask the theme’s developer if there is any reason this might be happening that they know of.

OK log files uploaded again. I received notification that they were received before as well. All the logs are tar+gzip’d together.

We still didn’t receive them. I’m having our site team look into the form, we haven’t had any problems with it thus far but we’re not receiving these logs. In the mean time I’m going to send an email to the address registered to your account. If you could send Dashboard login details to the email address that you receive the message from (it will end with @websharks-inc.com), we can download your logs through the Dashboard.

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

Could you run our server scanner, and see if a test email sends correctly?

See: Knowledge Base » s2Member® Server Scanner

We are also aware of an incompatibility with WP Mail SMTP that causes this. If you have this plugin, please deactivate it.

I generated a Security Encryption Key and then clicked “Save All Changes”. I am still not secure and was wondering what the issue may be.

s2Member requires a few things for the Security Badge to show up. If you click on the badge at the top right of this panel, you can see what you do have set up correctly:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Security Badge

You’ll then want to use the information provided here to figure out what else you need to set up:

Thank you for your inquiry.

s2Member currently does not have any direct integration with Libsyn, but you might be able to use the information provided here to integrate.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options -› Remote Auth/Podcasting

On the sign up page I would like everyone to be able to read the information about membership, pricing and benefits etc. but as we only want new members who have been recommended by an existing member to join (using a password/access code given to them by the member recommending them) is it possible to make them have to enter this password before being able to check out using the PayPal button? I have already forced them to agree to terms and conditions before checking out.

You can use Shortcode Conditionals if you have Users sign in before they can check out. Just send them to the login page, and use the is_user_logged_in() conditional.

Would that work?

And Yes, the theme works fine without the plugin :-)

Thanks. Last question. What theme are you running?

I want to know if I can use s2member to limit the posts that a member can make depending on their subscription choice.

s2Member doesn’t support paying to create Posts at this time. You would need to have a developer integrate this functionality with s2Member.
