You could probably just generate 2 different buttons with the different options, and clearly identify them on the site. Using levels would not really be that advantageous. One button can have the trial period and one button, none.

There is now a way to have s2M and MailChimp synchronized . Check this thread:
http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/bidirectional-communication-s2m-mailchimp/
It gives a bidirectional communication between the two and works silently in the background.

This is not confusing and it is a very common request. Instead of separating the different courses by level (as you see, it does not really separate them), you can use custom capabilities (that is what i use) and then YOU can call each course the way you want.
Check below this page, under Popular videos and click on the Custom Capabilities one. Those ccaps, are very powerful and will likely do exactly what you need.

As i didn’t want to wait too much, i did a little experiment. With a Share button, the title, and the first sentence WILL appear on FB. However, if anyone clicks on the link, they will NOT get to see the content if it is protected. In my case, when i tried, my brother could see the title on FB, but ended up with the sale pitch instead of the actual content that was “supposed to be shared”.
I guess i don’t need anything fancy to be removed from the protected pages or such (unless i didn’t even want to share the title and the first sentence). I think most social media sharing plugins seem to work the same way in that regard.
If i need to know anything else, don’t hesitate to add to this thread.

Oops… i apologize. Eduan is right. I was giving the information for the email and not the page itself. My error.

There is also a way to use some replacement coded in the message if you want to have the name of a product, a course, or a subscripton. You can edit the default message under Paypal Option > Signup Confirmation email. For example, mine looks like this:
Thanks %%first_name%%!
You have successfully purchased the %%item_name%%.
If you haven’t already done so, the next step is to Register a Username for the Campus.
Complete your registration here:
%%registration_url%%
If you have any trouble, please feel free to contact us.
Once your registation is completed, you can login and access your bonuses here:
http://scrapbookcampus.com/%%cv2%%
Hope it helps.

The levels integrated in s2M are not independant however you can use the custom capabilities and create an endless number of levels. Instead of relying on the levels as is, you can use ONE level (level 1) and then assign custom capabilities like “MyLevel1”, “MyLevel2”, “MyLevel3”, and so on.
Check the video tutorial on Custom Capabilities (i dont have the link now, but i am sure someone will add it).
Custom capabilities (ccaps) are extremely powerful. I use them for my Campus where i have various courses and workshop and they are all independant.

This is a bit of catch 22: if i get my developper to work on that and he succeeds, then i get a beta version (or simply the next version) and it does the same, i might end up having to redo the settings, possibly differently. I am not sure how the changes the developper would do, would survive the upgrade??? What do you think?

I have mine that has free membership and paid products including some recurring payment:
http://scrapbookcampus.com
|
|

Well, maybe not yesterday, but probably tomorrow! It is a feature i would like to have to offer a “gold membership” to my members to incorporate more content in one “deal”.
Maybe the programmer could do it for free if his previous plugin (the one i sent an email about) brings him $. But i cannot really count on that.

Thanks. I guess i’ll have to find another way around. I am afraid it is above my knowledge and my cost me too much to ask my programmer to do it. :(
|
|
|
Well, it asks me to fill in all those fields and i barely have a single line to type in the message. Should i fill in with fake info since it is not applicable to my message?

Hum… i am lost here. You are quoting something that is not in this thread. Then my question (maybe i am not explaining my thought correctly) is simply this:
i can get a conditional that will look if the member has a ccaps or not (even if he has 10) without having to compare each one, right?
can’t i get a conditional to look if the member has a ccaps that is higher (or lower) than something else?
And i thought i had a simple solution!
|
|
|
The wjan2012 format would be tough to compare with higher/lower than. I suggest just 201208, w201208 at most.
I know, i was thinking outloud. The ccaps with the wjan would be used for something else, not to compare with the date one. I would just keep it so that if someone would buy one particular package, and not the whole continuous serie, i can still use this code to check for that particular ccaps
[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_wjan2011)]
You need to get all the ccaps the user has, first, and then do the comparison to find one higher than the one required by the page.
I am just unable to figure out how the syntax would look like. I see snippets with user_can , user_is, and such that are simple true or false conditions. If a member purchases something with a ccap of 201208, how do i write the following conditional:
if the user has a ccaps >= 201205, then show this page
It is that first part of the “if the user has ccaps” because i can only find
[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_201205)]
As for automatically changing the date, i might look into it later but manually changing it once a month is not a big deal for now.

Jennifer, s2M does not have a mailing feature, however, you can integerate it with MailChimp (which is inexpensive) and set up an autoresponder to send a notice after 28 days for example. MailChimp is free to use but you need a paid version to use the auto-responder.

Ok, i think i found a workaround that might work without too heavy coding, but still will rely on something not automatic. Tell me if it makes sense:
– in the shortcode for the “subscription”, i would add a specific ccap for the month. So, today, the shortcode would have a ccaps=”201208″ (i would change it every month)
– since some workshops can still be purchased separately and NOT through a subscription, i would keep the current ccaps like wjan2012, wfeb2012 and so on
– i would have a conditional that would look for ONE condition:
— either the member HAS one of the independant ccaps
— either the member purchased a ccap that is >= than 201208.
Now,
– question 1: is that possible (and logical)?
– question 2: what is the syntax needed to check if the user has a ccap >= than (something)?
|
|
|
Yes, it answers as it means it is possible. Too bad i have no clue how to do it! hehehe
Thanks anyway!

I cannot show you but for example, i am using Popup Domination, which is a plugin that will show a popup according to various settings. It is a plugin totally independant of s2M. Is it using java and stuff? I have no clue.
In the OP, Steve mentions aweber lightbox, which is also totally separate from the pages and posts that i can see one would insert a conditional.
|
|
|
This is a great question. Eduan, how can this conditional be coded for a lightbox that appears ON TOP of the site and not ON it ? I could do the same for another popup but since it is not coded on a page or a post, where would the conditional go?
|
|
|
Ah, if that is the case, then adding a ccaps would work! Thanks.
|
|
|
I imagine then that you’re adding the ccaps MailChimp merge fields, right?
Yes i do but i fill them manually. Is there a way have them added automatically?
Well, since s2M is a plugin, i thought it would “apply” to all the pages of one WP installation, so if i want to install another instance of s2M, then i figured i would have to have it on a “different” WP install. Does it make sense?
Sorry, I’m still not sure I understand. :P
Maybe it is something i dont understand about WP myself. How can i install another instance of s2M on the same “site”? If i have a section under scrapbookcampus.com/fr how would i have a different s2M install?
|
|
|
I think it does help. I see i can set ccaps there. Can this form be used if the member is already registered or does that work only for “first registration”?
