wow, impressed. Working on Thanks Giving :)

I’ll check that out and report back then!

Thanks!

Great!

Thanks for the awesome tutorial, it cleared up a ton of problems I was having and I’m sure there’s going to be plenty of others helped.

I am however finding that there is one problem that is persisting with me despite following the video to the letter.

After a new user has registered and he heads to his buddypress profile (as you do in the video), my profile seems to include a ‘Name (required)’ field (and it’s also there 3 times). I’m also struggling with the visabliity of the fields.

I’ve gone through the video several times and I can’t seem to figure it out.

oh, just re-read your comment on the mu-plugins. So i’ve created the directory mu-plugins in wp-content and have created the s2-hacks.php now.

I can currently still access wp-login.php however.

Posted: Saturday Aug 10th, 2013 at 4:58 pm #55531

Great, thanks for this.

I’m just going through them now. Quick question: I can’t seem to located mu-plugins… I’m obviously missing something :-/

Right, so based on this, I think I’m best setting up the paypal pro form as the only place on the frontend that a user can ‘register’ for the service. After completing the form and completing payment, I would them to be sent through a couple of pages I’ll set up before landing in the ‘edit profile’ page, for them to conclude in updating their profile. It seems I’ll be able to set this up by using the paypal form shortcode as you suggest. Great.

So if this is the case, I would then basically just like to remove access to wp-login.php, which your above suggestion should hopefully resolve. /wp-login.php?action=register’ which actually I’ve sorted (although I can’t remember how), but it auto redirects the user to the /register page. And the /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword page, which I actually don’t mind too much unless there is an easy way to bring that into the main site.

So my problems right now then are the following.

1. the /register page is currently the buddypress and themes custom page which currently populates strangely and shows both ‘profile fields’ and s2’s profile fields, would need to be the paypal pro form. So I suppose i’m after complete turning off registration through buddypress? to free up this page for the pro form?

2. I need to understand where and how I would create all the profile fields for the users to show in their edit profile section, and understand how I would select a which ones are to show up in the pro form… which then auto updates their profile.

Urgh, I hope all this makes sense… I really am kinda going round in circles with this and feel like I’ve probably got lost… :-/

thanks for the help

ah thanks.

I’ve solved this. It was mealy a problem with my custom coding. urgh.

Posted: Monday Aug 5th, 2013 at 5:18 pm #55242

thanks for that.

is that definitely correct? I’m getting the ‘sorry we are no longer accepting…’ message under my pro form currently

Posted: Monday Aug 5th, 2013 at 5:14 pm #55241

Yes i would ideally.

I would like to make sure that users never head to any part of ‘wordpress’ including the login.php, register page and even the forgotten password page, though I don’t know how possible that would be.

So currently I’ve got the paypal pro form on a page that allows to register, however I’ve not managed to get the profile fields integrated into Buddypress, so the fields the enter in the pro form populate the buddypress profile

And I obviously still have a /register page that shows the buddypress register page.

Posted: Saturday Aug 3rd, 2013 at 6:23 pm #54856

ah ha, I think that may work. Just looking through the shortcodes now and this solves quite a few of my potential hurdles.

thanks!

Posted: Saturday Aug 3rd, 2013 at 4:48 pm #54851

perfect, that works great.

a couple of questions:

a. So I have a custom built login page at /login. The paypal pro form after payment takes you to the wp-login.php page. Do you know where the code would be to change that to my /login page?

b. the buddypress registration process use to allow pages that the user would be taken through after registering, and thus allowed me to have custom pages explaining the interface and the functions of the website. After payment however it just takes me through to the welcome page that’s set with s2 member as if they’ve logged in numerous times before.

Posted: Saturday Aug 3rd, 2013 at 4:12 pm #54843

oh great. Thanks!

Just testing now

Thanks for the reply.

Basically the buddypress theme i’m using has added it’s own register and login pages… under the buddypress /register and /login pages it sets up. These look great however obviously don’t work with S2 member.

So I’ve bought the S2 pro to use the paypal pro forms, which I’m still struggling getting to work. I’m getting error codes back.

So although the above problem, I’m kind of understanding more (the redirect wasn’t a redirect as such, it was just taking me through to the buddypress login pages, not the wp login page) I’m still struggling getting it neat.

Do you have documentation on how s2 works alongside buddypress? I’m confused with profile fields that can be set up.

Posted: Saturday Jul 27th, 2013 at 7:12 pm #54254

it’s also worth mentioning the setup i’m after developing.

I wish for users to ‘sign up’ to the service. They would then enter the details on my registration page. At the end of which, they would be prompted for payment. Once this has been completed, they will be directed through some signup setup pages I’ve developed, and then prompted to login.

I presume this can done?

Posted: Saturday Jul 27th, 2013 at 6:45 pm #54251

Oh,

I also read this in the quick guide on S2. It seems I most likely will be able to integrate the form, but as of yet, I’m lost :-/

“Since s2Member uses the default Login/Registration system for WordPress®, s2Member is also compatible with themes and other plugins (such as BuddyPress). If your theme has a login form built-in already, chances are, it’s perfectly compatible with s2Member. There are also many plugins available that are designed to place login forms into your Sidebar; and many of those are also compatible with s2Member’s integration. If you have any trouble, please check the s2Member Forums for assistance.”

It seems I’ve solved the problem:

I added

<?php if (is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_redirect ( home_url("/dashboard") );
exit;
}
?>

I’ve found and just followed the following with great success:

http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/

I’ve now created a site that has a home page with separate nav menu / sidebar for logged out users. Added the restrictions to be forwarded to the members options page when logged out too, so I’ve now a great frontend setup for logged out users.

the problem now I face however is that logged in users, when clicking home, head to the logged out home I created using the following link.

Is there a way in S2 member to add a secondary home page for logged in members… ie: http://www.mydomain.com/home
