Hi Scott. You can give a trial managed by the gateway, so it’ll wait that time before making the first charge. When you generate the shortcode for the button/pro-form, you’ll see there’s an option to give a trial term. If instead of delaying the payment, you want to delay the content for 14 days, then you’d use PHP as explained here: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Content Dripping[/hilite] I hope it helps. :) |

Hi Shawn. Well, you could sell a custom capability that corresponds to the DVD, and when someone buys that you ship a copy to him. Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities) You could have a notification send you emails, and then in your email account have a filter for that ccap to alert you in some way. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Notifications -› Payment Notifications[/hilite] I hope that helps. :) |

Hi Jim. Are you using a PayPal button or pro-form? If the latter, are you using PayPal Pro or just Express Checkout? If the button, it could be that he paid but didn’t return properly to the site, so he wasn’t cookied by s2Member so his account has the paid access on registration, and he probably didn’t use the registration link sent by email either. If the pro-form, maybe his payment wasn’t successful and that’s why, although the account was created, it got set to Level 0. Do you have the log entries for this transaction?

I see. If you log out of your account, can you still download the protected files? I just tried the full URL to it and was allowed to download. If you can while logged out, then the .htaccess for the s2member-files dir is probably not working. Like I said before, I don’t know if mod_rewrite (or .htaccess) works in a Win server. Just to discard the possibility of another plugin interfering, could you deactivate the other plugins and test downloading the protected file again? I find it odd that the query string version doesn’t work, but maybe it’s another sympton of the Win server? I don’t know… I’d also test using the Amazon S3 integration to host the protected files, in case you can’t make it work with the files in your site’s hosting account. |

Hi Malin. Well, s2Member can’t handle more than one subscription yet, but it’s fine to have a running subscription and then sell stuff with one-time payments. If the second ccap is for lifetime access and paid just one time, then you shouldn’t have the problem you mentioned. Make sure you’re not selling a subscription with a single payment, it has to be a Buy Now one. The one payment subscription is only useful if you want to give a trial, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Double check that you aren’t using a subscription button/pro-form for the ccap, please, it should be Buy Now. I hope that helps. :) |

Hmm… This is not something that s2Member has to do with, and I don’t have experience with it to give much advice, either. :/ You’d need to check with your webhost, or find a way for your site to send emails through a service that has better deliverability. |

Yeah, I realize it’s not exactly what you wanted. I took note of your idea and we’ll see if there’s something we can do in the future to make it easier to achieve. :) |

Not sure then… When you create a new custom profile field and save it, does it get created? If so, editing existing ones should save as well.
Okay. What file are you customizing then? |

Hi Kali.
PayPal Pro is supported by s2Member, the problem is that it seems to not be available in Australia. It’s PayFlow Pro what is not supported by s2Member yet, but we’re working on it. |

Hi Ian. The buttons seems okay. I’d like to see your log entries to see if there’s anything wrong there. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Account Details -› Logging[/hilite] Please enable logging if you don’t have it, run a new test transaction and then paste here the entries for it from all the log files you find in your s2member-logs folder (including the PayPal ones), x’ing out any private info (e.g. email address). Thanks! |

Hi Peter. We don’t have a someone in particular. There was one that was doing customization jobs some months ago, but since then he’s been busy and not taking new jobs. I’d suggest posting a job over at jobs.wordpress.net, since some developers are familiar with s2Member there. :) |

Hi Jim. I don’t know how to delay the New User email, and the confirmation email is sent by AWeber, but s2Member doesn’t find out if the person confirms the email subscription there or not. What you could do is have them opt-in to the list first and then, on confirmation, redirect them to the registration form. So they’d opt-in first and register second… |

Hi Gary.
Well, those fields are the gateway to process the payment, they aren’t stored by s2Member. You can create custom profile fields to store them, and that’d show in the WP and BP profile pages. But those wouldn’t be synched with the fields for payment in the pro-form, since they’re separate. The user would need to fill them out again, or you’d have to create a hack that synchs them. |

That’s fine, I’d have asked too. I hope you find a solution soon! :) |

Right.
No, that’s on PayPal’s side. The notification’s email will include the values available as replacement codes for the notificiation. You can set it up and do a test transaction to see what you get. :) |

Hi Mary Anne.
I guess you’re using the s2Member custom profile fields. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields[/hilite] When you edit them, make sure you save them clicking the Save All Changes button at the bottom of the General Options page.
Are you using a pro-form? If so, you can customize the template a bit copying the template for the pro-form to the theme’s directory, customizing that copy of the template, and then referencing it from your pro-form’s shortcode with the [hilite mono]template[/hilite] attribute. Pre Sale FAQs » Is it possible to modify s2Member® Pro Form templates?
How did you add it? Could you show us the code? (Remember to put it inside [hilite mono]code[/hilite] tags when you post it) Thanks. :) |

Are you referring to BuddyPress groups? If so, you could try using the URI restriction to control access to the URL that creates the group, but that would not count the number of times. You’d need to hack your installation to customize it this way. |

If you use the notification, the email will be sent on every purchase, unless you hack the notifications code to customize it the way you want. What I was suggesting was to let it send every email, but in your email account set up a filter that will pick up the ones where the ccap was purchased and label it in some way to highlight it. |

I’m glad you could find the source of the problem easily. :)
Yeah, it’s logical to assume that. It’s possible that both plugins are tapping on one same place of WP that causes this problem, not that it’s the way this was intended to happen. It’s just very difficult to avoid every possible conflict with so many plugins out there. Maybe you can just use the generated password and then point them to the profile page to customize it if they want. |

Hi Fred. Yeah, this would be a WP thing. s2Member only manages access to content on the front, it doesn’t deal with the admin permissions on the back. Even if you customized the s2Member roles to have other capabilities to do what you want, that would not limit it to a certain category only. It seems you’d need to find another plugin that enables that, or you’d have to hack your installation to achieve it. |

Hi Gary. There has been progress, but it’s not ready for release yet, and I don’t have a date for it either. It hasn’t been forgotten, though, we’ll announce it as soon as it’s released. :) |

Hi Charles. No, there isn’t a video specifically on pro-forms. If I remember correctly, the intro to s2Member Pro video touches on pro-forms, but it doesn’t go into customizing the template for them. You can make a copy of the template for the pro-form you want to use, and paste it in your theme’s directory to edit the code for it, that gives you some control over its code. You can, of course, also customize it with CSS in your theme’s styles.css file. There isn’t an s2Member how-to tutorial for those, though, you just need to know PHP/HTML and CSS, respectively. |

Hi Ron.
Yes, with s2Member you can let your users have their own blog(s) in your multisite network, and the Network Support license lets you use s2Member Pro in that setup. s2Member doesn’t add features to control/manage what plugins/themes the user gets to use, though. You need other plugins to control that. This thread may help: http://www.primothemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=1414
They’d be able to use s2Member in their blogs to have their own memberships, although a slightly limited version of it for security reasons. In your Account page you’ll find a PDF named Multisite Blog Farm Documentation, explaining some of the security considerations. http://www.s2member.com/account/
I’m not sure how giving someone in a WP multisite network their own hosting account and domain name works, but s2Member can be allowed to blogs in the network. So, as long as the blog is part of the network, he can be permitted to use s2Member regardless of the blog’s domain name. |
