About: Charles Mak

Burce,
I have received the below reply from my hosting provider, but I would like to confirm with you whether it will has caused the problem of s2member.

………….reply from hosting provider…………..

We are very sorry to let you know that some PHP function such as allow_url_fopen and allow_url_include involving vulnerabilities, and cannot be enabled.

If you really need this, please consider to use our dedicated server service or cloud server service.

According to documents, this is quite often it is possible for an attacker to get PHP code into files on the server (sessiondata, fileupload, logfiles,…).allow_url_fopen and allow_url_include only protect against URL handlers marked as URL. It is trivially possible to inject arbitrary PHP code.

Bruce,
I have spent nearly two weeks but still cannot make the s2member – Paypal form to work. Very disappointed ! I enclosed the transaction log for your reference, please assist me to find out what go wrong.

I have changed to use the Standard Twenty Ten theme to test out the Paypal process, but still No SUCCESS at all. I start to wonder what go wrong of S2member PRO or do you able to provide a pop-up window, like the Member Profile Modification to try

Bruce,
I have checked this is the theme conflict. Actualy, the theme is a free version but I found it has used the base64 encrypted that I cannot make change on it. I would like to seek your advise, how to override this problem?
