You’d put that code in a file, e.g. s2hacks.php, and put the file in the must-use plugins directory, i.e. /wp-content/mu-plugins/ (create it if it’s not there yet). Must-use plugins are loaded automatically by WordPress. http://codex.wordpress.org/Must_Use_Plugins

Is there any way to Re Download S2 member pro that way we can see if that is the problem.

The URL you posted would be for the page you set as the Membership Options one, and the vars give data on what restriction was applied to what content and what access is required. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Membership Options Page Variables (MOP Vars)[/hilite]

It says there that the page that you were redirected from requires Level 0. The Login Welcome page is restricted to logged in users only, that’s why the Level 0 requirement.

Let me know if that helps. :)

If this issue hasn’t been resolved yet, do I need to re-apply the patch after every update until it is?

Yes. Or you can place the file in the must-use plugins directory (/wp-content/mu-plugins/) so it isn’t overwritten with each update. Just remember to remove that file when it’s finally included in the update.

I’ll ask Jason about that, it probably fell through a crack and he missed it. Thanks for the reminder. :)

I will temporarily give existing members a super easy way to get to the update-billing-information page.

Why? I’m not sure I understand what you meant… You don’t want them to update the billing information in their existing subscription, you need them to end that subscription and create a new one in your new PayPal account. Right?

Thanks, got the email.

I was able to login to the WP admin area, but not to the FTP. I’m also replying to your email about it, could you reply back with the correct FTP login?

I see you have deactivated s2Member, do you give me permission to activate it for a moment to see the problem? If so, I’d like to have FTP access in case I need to deactivate s2Member and for some reason can’t do it from the dashboard.

Thanks. :)

Hi Andy.

The thing is that the import process is already quite resource intensive, processing the list server with each user imported, would make it that much heavier. You could process the list servers with a PHP script and process the users in steps instad of quickly in a row.

Please read this, http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/s2member-mailchimp-and-ccaps/#post-17078 from where I start talking about [hilite mono]c_ws_plugin__s2member_list_servers::process_list_servers[/hilite], after the code block.

You’d use that in a script and have it process the users in steps, probably reloading the script with the updated offset to process the next batch.

I hope that helps. :)

Thanks, got the email.

In the logs I see one entry where you had purchased while being logged in to the admin, but I’m sure you realized it then and tried again while logged out.

Could you create a test page, password protect it so it’s protected but I can access it without logging in, and put the same pro-form but change the amount to 1 cent? I’ll do a purchase to see what happens and the log entries for it.

For example, if I want the membership to last for 1 year, I would add the following to the “advanced variables” box in the PayPal button generator:

Do you mean recurringly every year, or just last that year? If the latter, a Buy Now transaction may be best.

When you create the button over at PayPal, you do it with a graphic interface and won’t be editing code. The button code it gives you is just a sort of ID for the button and PayPal uses it to pull all the button’s settings from its database, so you won’t be editing variables as the [hilite mono]p3[/hilite] or [hilite mono]t3[/hilite].

is there a conditional tag or a meta data that i can extract from the account that can show the difference?

If the access is the same, I guess you can give both the same level or ccap, instead of mixing them. To differentiate free from paid, you could create a custom profile field hidden from the user, just for you. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields[/hilite]

When I created a mu-plugins folder, a php file with the function, and dropped it into the folder my site went blank. Both the frontend and the admin user interface were blank pages. Any ideas? Is there a bug in that snippet?

The code seems fine and Bruce just confirmed that it doesn’t cause an error…

Make sure there’s nothing outside the PHP block: no spaces or line breaks.

lol, yeah, I understand what you’re saying and think it wise. :)

Glad I could help!

Hi Les.

I don’t see other site owners reporting this, so it seems to be something specific to your installation. It may be a plugin conflict causing s2Member to have trouble, or maybe a server configuration…
