That looks correct…

Could you try a new test purchase? I wonder why you got that error.

If you still have trouble, please try deactivating all the other plugins and trying a new test purchase to see if that changes anything, please. I’d like to make sure this problem isn’t being caused by another plugin.

Thanks!

Right, as Eduán said, try being logged out when you view the pro-form. The pro-form will show the custom profile fields when the user is registering his account. If the person is logged in, then there won’t be a registration and the custom profile fields won’t be shown.

I hope that helps understand that behavior. :)

how can a PayPal paying member cancel payments and downgrade to a level zero, free subscriber? Where is the shortcode for that?

Cancelling the subscription, with the Auto EOT Behavior set to “demote”. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Automatic EOT Behavior[/hilite]

It seems the only way for a member to downgrade to a level zero, free subscriber is to cancel their membership, lose all of their comments, lose their user name and history, et al.

You seem to have the EOT behavior set to “delete” if the account is being deleted.

I hope that helps. :)

Glad you fixed the Pro installation. :)

Yeah, it may be case sensitive that way. Let me know how it goes with lowercase then, I hope that solves it.

No problem. Cool. :)

Let us know if you have more questions or need help.

So far we’ve considered the subscription EOT to be the time when the subscription ends, and it does make sense.

In practical terms it’s been obvious that it is desirable to know the end of the paid access so far, though, which is what you’re asking for, and we’ll be making that available soon. :)

Hi Milan.

When you create new s2Member Level roles in s2Member Pro, those are available in other areas, including the API that integrates them with MailChimp. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Membership Levels/Labels[/hilite]

So, if you change the number of levels to 11, you’ll have elevel levels to integrate with MailChimp lists (one or many per level) in the List Server API. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers -› MailChimp®[/hilite]

Does that help? :)

1. Can this be done with Free version or do I need Pro

You would need s2Member Pro to have the free registration pro-form, that allows free registrations for access that would normally could only be sold with the free s2Member, unless you hacked the installation, or modified profiles manually. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Free Registration Forms[/hilite]

2. Some of the members will belong to more than one group. Eg some of the Executive Committee of the not for profit are also Special Representatives. Let’s say Bill and Anne are Executive Committee Members and Anne and John are Special representatives. Bill should only have access to Executive content and John to Special Representative content but Anne should have access to both.

Right, custom capabilities may do what you need here. Unless your groups have incremental access to lower ones, in which case you could use the levels. Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities)

4. I am worried about potential conflicts between URIs/fragments and our open content. We publish 8-10 stories per week which are available to anyone. We don’t want them accidently protected because we use one of the fragment words “members” “forums” etc in a post (story) title. I am mainly interested in protecting BuddyPress Group Forums and Sitewide (bbPress) forums. Would it be better to put S2 & BuddyPress etc on a second installation at eg http://forums.mysitename.org rather than trying to put it all at one URL; so long as I could have a couple of pages [including one list of a subset of registered site users] visible to the whole world that might work?

If you have those areas in separate installations, then it’ll be hard to manage access to them with s2Member from the main installation. URI restriction may be good enough, just make sure that the URI fragments that you’re protecting, are unique to what you want to protect. For example, if you protect the [hilite mono]forums[/hilite], instead of forums, protect [hilite mono]/forums/[/hilite].

Ah, ok, I thought maybe what you’re using for the tabs, would not let you use PHP.

Yeah, I can understand that you don’t know PHP. The widget is a widget, but we made it possible to use via PHP too, it’s just that a shortcode is not available for it yet.

I’m afraid you will need to find a plugin that adds a shortcode for a login widget then. I’m not familiar with one to recommend, though.

Yes, you’re protecting that content with the conditional. The whole page remains unrestricted, it’s just that content you wrapped with the conditional that is affected.

But how can somebody wants to buy “Sockerfri” without already being a subscriber to “klubb”?
Now it says “you must log in before making this purchase”. Does it mean I need to make them Level 0 subscribers first???

And what do I do about people already bought sockerfri and then wants to buy “klubb”???

If the user doesn’t have an account, then you’d sell him the ccap but also give him an s2Member Level (1 or higher). Or have him register first for free at Level 0 and then, while logged in, pay for the ccap to add it to his account. We’re working on improving this, but for now it’d be like that.

You can use conditional to check whether the user is logged in or not to determine what button to show him. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Simple/Shortcode Conditionals[/hilite]

Hi Piero.

Sorry, s2Member Pro has the Login Widget, which you can also use via PHP, but there isn’t a shortcode for. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Pro Login Widget (via PHP)[/hilite]

Why must it be a shortcode and not be PHP?
