Thank you for reporting this important issue.

Can you check to make sure that you have this file in your installation?

/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/pro-module.php

Note that this path only has one /s2member-pro/ file. Some programs will extract the .zip file into another file, and cause it to be nested, where the path will be like this, which does work correctly:

/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/s2member-pro/pro-module.php

If that’s correct, please send us a Dashboard Login so we can take a look:

Thank you for your inquiry.

You cannot have multiple Pro Forms on the same page, so having two plans using radio buttons won’t work unless you link out to one of them.

However adding a Terms and Conditions checkbox is fairly simple. You’ll want to create a new Profile/Registration Field here:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields

Thank you for your inquiry.

The URL that the User is being redirected to contains information stored in Membership Options Variables. You can find information on what this does here:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Membership Options Page Variables (MOP Vars)

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

We haven’t ever had a report of this happening. Do you have any plugins that add extra Post Meta options to your Posts/Pages, or possibly a database cleaning tool installed on your server?

Also could you run this Server Scanner?

Is there any way that I can make it invisible to members with the wrong ccap without breaking into the functions.php file?

Do you have Alternative View Protection enabled? That should do what you’re wanting.

Thank you for your inquiry.

You might could use the is_home() conditional from WordPress. Something like this:

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.

I’ve seen this happen in certain themes that don’t support the do_shortcode filter. Can you try reverting back to a default WordPress theme, and see if the shortcode shows up then?

Can you tell me what module I should be modifying to insert a middle name between first and last on the registration form? Is this do-able? Thanks.

You should use the instructions provided here for changing the template files: Pre Sale FAQs » Is it possible to modify s2Member® Pro Form templates?

For Paid Pro Forms, edit /s2member-pro/includes/templates/forms/paypal-checkout-form.php
For Free Registration Forms, edit /s2member-pro/includes/templates/forms/paypal-registration-form.php

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

It can take up to 24 hours for the security badge to update (as noted in the documentation here: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Security Badge).

The best way to tell what’s not working correctly is the click the badge at the top right of this panel, and see what your site is supporting. You can then figure out what your site needs to work properly.

If your security badge is still not working in 24 hours, and you’re sure everything’s set up correctly (and you’ve flushed your site’s caches), let us know.

I’ve seen wordpress plugins which allow for this functionaality such as: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-email-login/

I have seen many Users use this plugin do accomplish this, but s2Member does not provide this functionality, and we do not intend to. Changing the Username layout is changing a core concept of WordPress, and it could cause issues in the future. If you really need this functionality I would say adding this plugin in would be okay, but you’ll need to keep an eye out for incompatibility in the future. As long as it’s just allowing Users to log in with their email addresses, you should be able to disable the plugin if support for it drops.

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

Is this Safari for Windows, or OSX? It may be a browser caching issue, but I’m not sure. I’ll have our development team look into it.

If i remember, the coupons are only available with the Pro-form (at least until now).

Right, you can only use Coupons with Pro Forms. There has to be a form to fill out generated for coupons to work.

If you’ll look at Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Pro Coupon Codes, the first line is this:

Currently, this is ONLY compatible with Pro Forms for PayPal® Pro and Authorize.Net®, enabled by the s2Member Pro Module. Coupon Codes allow you to provide discounts (through a special promotion). A Customer may enter a Coupon Code at checkout, and depending on the Code they enter, a discount may be applied (based on your configuration below).

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

I’m wondering if that has anything to do with why S2member didn’t auto punish the attacker after his 5th attempt? Could attacking through the widget somehow bypass the brute force settings?

What do you have set up in your Brute Force settings?

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Brute Force IP/Login Restrictions

And no, the Login Widget hooks into /wp-login.php, and all restrictions apply there.

I reported this issue to our development team. It was recommended that you run the s2Member Server Scanner to check that WordPress is set to run in UTF-8.

Thank you for your inquiry.

The only way I see this being possible currently is to either create your own form that grants access to the checkout form after the User fills out their email address, or to have Users sign up with Free Registration Pro forms before they can check out (in this case you’d want to send a newsletter out to Users that are s2Member Level 0 every so often).

I don’t see this being added to s2Member anytime soon, but I’ll put in a request for this.

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

I tired changing the restriction options and it finally worked by changing “Unique IP Access Restrictions” setting to “Allow infinite IPs …” <- only this one worked. Not "allow to 50, 75 or even 100". It needed to be "infinite"… .

You need to clear this User’s IP Restrictions. You can do this through the Edit Users menu:

Alternatively, you can refresh all Users’ IP Restrictions here
(Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Unique IP Access Restrictions):

Let us know if problems persist after you’ve done that. :-)

Thank you for reporting this important issue.

I’d strongly recommend not changing the prefix on a live site. You’ll need to change the prefix both in the wp-config.php file, but also for all of the tables that are created in your mySQL database, and all of the meta values that have been created based on the prefix you had set up. In my opinion, it would be easier to recreate the site over again with the new prefix than change the prefix after it’s all set up.

That being said, if that’s not an option, you’ll need to change the prefix for all of the tables in your mySQL database via PHPmyAdmin (your server provider should give you info on getting this access) for starters. You will need to redo (at least some) of your settings, and probably change the names in some of your options tables from wp_ to your new prefix. That’s probably what’s causing you your issue right now.

Thank you for your inquiry.

The best way to do that would be to have Users register at s2Member Level 0 before they can check out for an item. This won’t stop Users from accidentally creating multiple accounts, but it might help.

Alternatively if you’re selling access to Specific Posts or Pages, you might take a look at Specific Post/Page Buy Now Pro Forms. They don’t require a login, but expire eventually.
