is it mandatory for the customer to have a paypal account to pay the membership through Paypal? I ask because I read the customer is notified via email, using the email associated with his Paypal account. I need Paypal payment maethod, but without the need of having a Paypal account for the customer, cause this condition will make customers not to finalize the checkout in a considerable number of cases.

The thing is that PayPal will require the user to have a PayPal account if you’re selling him a subscription. If it’s a one-time buy-now purchase, then the PayPal account isn’t required.

The only way to not require a PayPal account to sell a subscription, is if you get their paid service for that; I think it’s called DPRP (Direct Payment Recurring Payment), not sure if it has different names depending on whether you’re using PayPal Standard, Express Checkout or PayPal Pro. If you really need this feature, you should contact PayPal to get more information on it and, if you choose to, activate it.

I hope that helps. :)

Hi Leo.

You don’t need s2Member Pro for this feature, it’s already possible in the free version.

Yes, you can give a preview of what’s to come using the conditionals. This video may help understand conditionals better: Video » s2Member (Advanced Conditionals)

Let us say that I set up new content each month, and all new customers start with my first month (level 1), level 2 for next month, level 3 for next month …. and so on.

s2Member doesn’t do dripping giving new roles or capabilities to users as time goes on, instead the user remains at the same level, but you check how long they’ve been at that level to decide whether to show the content or not. That’s what the conditional is doing in the examples from the documentation.

Let me know if that helps. :)

What caching plugin are you using? Does it have a button to update the cache?

Also, not sure if it’ll help, but just guessing here: save your s2 General Options page again, same for your WP reading settings, and the permalinks settings, even if you didn’t make changes. I mention this because similar errors I’ve seen in the past, although not exactly the same, were fixed when re-saving one those.

Juan, I searched the source files for a while looking for a filter for the New User email until I found the file where the code is. s2member\includes\classes\email-configs.inc.php

Didn’t find filters, but found them in the s2Member options array, so you can try editing that.

[hilite code]$GLOBALS["WS_PLUGIN__"]["s2member"]["o"]["new_user_email_subject"][/hilite]
[hilite code]$GLOBALS["WS_PLUGIN__"]["s2member"]["o"]["new_user_email_message"][/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)

Genie, could you send us the site’s info to take a look at your site’s settings, and try these things logged in and out? s2Member® » Private Contact Form

Thanks!

Try this:

Thanks for your tests.

So, if I understood correctly, deactivating W3TC everything works fine? In that case, you can try activating it with object and database caching disabled, or just use another caching plugin (e.g. QuickCache).

Then you can test adding the hack for the email customization, and then the customized return page template.

Let me know if you have any problems with that, or see any errors in the logs.

Hi Jacequelyn.

You can just have a separate page for each pro-form: free registration, paid level. Then link to them from another page, similar to how we did it in the prices page here. http://www.s2member.com/prices/

I hope that helps. :)

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 7:23 am #29379

I’d need to see the page with the pro-form, but I’m guessing it’s either the styling you did, or a plugin/theme causing the shortcode parsing to have too many [hilite mono]br[/hilite] tags where it shouldn’t (e.g. hidden input fields).

Can I see the page?

About the theme/plugins, you can test quick changing to the default theme and refreshing the page, and if that doesn’t solve it, deactivate other plugins one by one, checking after each.

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 7:18 am #29378

Nice, I’m glad you were able to solve it! Thanks for the update. :)

I’ll notify Jason about this problem too, so it’s taken into account by the pro-form to avoid it in the future.

Hi Richard.

So, the registration form would not work if they did not pay first.
that is what I want to do, is that possible?

Yes, you just disable Open Registrations, then only those that paid or got a special link from you, would be able to register. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Open Registration[/hilite]

The thank-you page would have to have a link to the registration page, so they create an account after checkout. /wp-login.php?action=register

I hope that helps!

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 7:03 am #29374

Glad you could solve it. Thanks for the update! :)

Could you make sure that s2Member Pro folder is not nested inside an extra one? I.e. /s2member-pro/s2member-pro/ That may happen sometimes when unzipping it, but it won’t work with WordPress. s2Member® » Pro » Install/Upgrade Instructions

I hope that helps. :)

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 6:43 am #29372

Hi Manish.

For that you can use the success attribute in the pro-form’s shortcode. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Custom Return URLs Upon Success[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 6:22 am #29371

No problem.

Actually, the description itself is easy to remove just editing the shortcode, but hiding with CSS will be useful for other parts. :)

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 6:14 am #29369

Cool. :)

Hi David.

is their any documentation related to this?

That’d be CSS documentation, nothing special about it. Just find the proper selector for each of the things you want to hide and add your custom styles to your theme’s style.css. Firebug will be very useful for this.

For example, for the free registration pro-form’s description, where it says “sign up now”, you can use the [hilite mono]#s2member-pro-paypal-registration-form-description-div[/hilite] ID as the selector.

#s2member-pro-paypal-registration-form-description-div {display: none;}

I hope that helps. :)

Using a shortcode inside another shortcode must be the problem, the parser not knowing how to deal with them.

You can first use the button’s shortcode on its own, log out of your account, load the page with the shortcode and copy the URL it outputs, then paste that in the table.

Keep in mind that this won’t work with upgrades, only new signups. For upgrades, you need the person logged in when the shortcode is parsed. That’s why I included logging out, so the URL doesn’t have your account’s info.

I hope that helps. :)

Glad I could help you. :)

Yeah, that’s the one you were asking about, right? As long as it’s in the mu-plugins directory, it’ll be loaded. All your hacks can be in a single file, or in separate ones.

Posted: Tuesday Oct 23rd, 2012 at 5:25 am #29361

Don’t know what did it. Creating a custom profile field for the “terms” certainly didn’t. Maybe when you created the shortcode with the generator, in the custom capabilities field, you entered “terms” by mistake? In any case, it’s a good thing we found the problem. :)
