Hi Mike,

Is it possible to stop recurring payments within the s2Member Configuration & Profile Fields?

No, this is currently not possible. You can, however stop recurring billing from Authorize.net.

If I manually delete the Paid Subscr. ID will that break the tie between this member and Authorize.net. Or will Authorize.net continue to bill?

This will just cause s2Member not to receive any updates on the transaction from Authorize.net, and Authorize.net will still be charging the user. You’d need to have a Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Subscr. Cancellation Buttons to allow your users to cancel.

Boudewijn,

I updated the code snippet that was in my post that you said affected your site this way.

Can you try the new code?

Also, I would advise against using this code in your theme’s functions.php file, as it might not load in time for the data to be filtered.

Hi Paul,

Glad to hear you fixed your problem.

Hi there,

You can set that when when you create the field. Use the option Yes ( editable after registration / invisible during registration ) under Allow Profile Edits*

So my question is this; if an affiliate sends someone to my site and they signup for a free membership, and later on that user buys a paid subscription, will the affiliate still get credited for the sale?

How long will it ‘remember’ which affiliate sent which user? Ideally I’d like it to be forever.

The duration of the cookie really depends on the affiliate software. Some software will save the cookie for a long time, and some just until the browser closes.

You may want to set up some custom code to handle this. Try saving the referral ID to a custom field when the user signs up free.

Has anyone done this before that can give me a basic idea of what steps are needed? Assume need to create database in mySQL and then create a script that passes this information and tells how to store it in the database and then put the script url in the payment notification area, does that sound about right?

I took a quick look at the Xero API, and it looks like you should be able to simply set up API Notifications directly to Xero, rather than sending the info to a database, and then to Xero. You should use this part of the API for that:

can a user cancel or resume a subscription within the administration area or do they have to do it within paypal?

s2Member has functionality to do this Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Billing Cancellation Forms

can a user change their payment recurring duration from monthly to yearly from within the admin panel? if not, what would be my alternative? cancelling the subscription and creating a new subscription? is there an automated way to do that?

Yes. You’ll just need to set up Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Billing Modification Forms.

can the admin cancel a subscription for a user?

You can cancel a suscription via PayPal, and then disable the user’s account by demoting them within the Admin panel.

is the expiry date for the user available?

Yes. You can find this within the user’s profile under Dashboard -> Users -> All Users.

is it possible to add an additional condition of a meta value for a user for the condition if a user logged in to validate the user?

Yes, absolutely. You’ll want to use Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals.

is the user saved in the database the same way a normal wordpress user is saved? that way all the information is accessible and meta_values are accessible the same way?

Yes. s2Member uses the standard WordPress Roles and Capabilities framework for all it’s user processes.

how do i add more meta values like you did for postcode? if it’s complicated i suppose i could possibly redirect to a gravity form to fill up the details but i’d rather consolidate all the user information under the one form.

I believe you need Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields.

when upgrading from single site license to unlimited do i just pay the difference?

Yes. The difference is paid to upgrade to unlimited-site.

Hi Richard,

I’m sending this to our development team to look at. For now, can you try adding this line of code to a Must Use Plugin, by copying this code to a .php file, and adding it to your /wp-content/mu-plugins/ directory (create it if you don’t have it)?

Hi Emmanuel,

I’m going to send this to our development team, so they can run some tests on this.

However I just want to bring up a point that users *cannot* access the /wp-content/plugins-s2member-files/ directory, as s2Member uses special .htaccess rules that make it impossible to access outside of s2Member’s processes./

Hi Tearei,

I’m forwarding this to our billing department.

Hi Emily,

You can change both of these settings in side of Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers -› Registration Double Opt-In Box

Hi Andy,

Update: I just deleted a few more test users, this time in 2 goes, and saw 2 calls to the MC API, removing 1 user each time. So I suspect something which should be in a loop isn’t :)

I’ll send this issue as a bug report to our dev team.

There seems to be a fair bit of redundancy in the parameters passed to process_list_servers (e.g. ‘level’ and ‘role’ – aren’t they pretty much the same thing?)

In s2Member’s processes, “level” usually refers to the s2Member level # (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4), while role is the full role of the user (i.e. ‘admin’, ‘s2member_level0’, ‘editor’).

I don’t see anything jumping out at me in the code that’s wrong. Have you tested?

Thank you for the log explanations. A handy, super, wonderful addition to s2Member would be a section where the logs could be looked at! –INSIDE of s2Member, inside of WordPress.

I’ll put this in the list of feature requests for the next major version of s2Member.

I honestly don’t know where to start to tell iTunes anything using this Payment Notification URL feature. Is there a section here at s2Member on using this with iTunes?

And maybe I don’t understand something, but:

1. I don’t think iTunes wants to get thousands of notifications from us each month as member payments occur.

2. I don’t see how sending payment success messages to iTunes each month will change anything. iTunes doesn’t manage our user access–s2Member does that.

– – –

How does s2Member handle the authentication between iTunes and Amazon S3? That’s where the answer to one issue lies.

If I understand correctly, your iTunes integration works like so:

1. User signs up, and pays on a recurring basis

2. They are granted a one-time key for iTunes that grants them access to your content

3. The user eventually cancels subscription, and all access to your site is revoked. However iTunes access is not.

Is that correct? I’d like clarification on this.
