I’m waiting for Jason to catch up with his email. He’s been checking his email less often lately, since he’s got his head deep in the new s2Member so we can start beta testing it really soon. I don’t think it’ll be much longer before he gets to this one. Thanks for your patience.

But since I’m back at this, I went and looked at your site again. I find it odd that s2Member would return a 404 in that situation, that’s very unlike how it deals with any other lack of access.

Is /create/ a default page of WordPress multisite? Here’s a quote from [hilite path]WP Admin -> s2Member -> Multisite[/hilite]:

Multisite Networking makes a new Registration Form available ( driven by your theme ); which we refer to as: /wp-signup.php. If, and only if, you’re planning to offer Blogs, you MUST use /wp-signup.php, instead of using the Standard Login/Registration Form. In a Multisite installation, we refer to the Standard Login/Registration Form, as: /wp-login.php?action=register.

It says you must use /wp-signup.php, but you’re using /microsites/create/. I just tried /wp-signup.php now and it redirected to /membership-options/, even though I was logged into the admin account, but that isn’t the right slug so it gives a 404. Same if I try /register/ which BuddyPress adds. Not sure what’s going on there.

Anyway, I went looking for /microsites/create/, but just found the /microsites/ page and saw that it has a listing of the network blogs and there’s a “create” button that links to /microsites/create/. Now, I went to the editor for /microsites/ and it’s an empty page. What is adding that content there? All this seems added by some other plugin.

Could you clarify what plugin is putting that there? If you deactivate all the plugins except s2Member, do you have the blog creation problem? Then start adding the other plugins, when does the problem come back?

I took at look at the form’s HTML in /microsites/create/ and from some googling, found it seems to be BuddyPress’. The form’s action, though, is empty in the HTML I looked at, not sure if that’s right. The PHP files I looked at in BP do have an output there, so I wouldn’t expect it empty. Or is there some JavaScript at work there?

In any case, the s2Member documentation points to using wp-signup.php, which is giving you a 404 because of a /membership-options/ slug that doesn’t exist, but no redirection should happen in the first place if I’m in the admin account. You should fix that and see if it helps with /microsites/create/ problem.

I hope it helps.

Hi Linda.

Sure. Here you can read about s2Member’s current approach to that: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Content Dripping[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)

That’s great, Andy! Thanks a lot for the update. I’m very glad it’s solved now. :)

I am just unable to figure out how the syntax would look like. I see snippets with user_can , user_is, and such that are simple true or false conditions.

You need a bit of PHP to first get all the ccaps he has, to then compare against the required ccap for the content he’s trying to view.

That PHP is not in the documentation, not sure there’s a function that does it either. http://www.s2member.com/codex/stable/s2member/api_functions/package-summary/

You may need to do a database query to get them. http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query

I’m really sorry, I’m not taking freelance jobs, haven’t for almost two years now. :/

I’m sure there’s someone in one of the freelancers websites that can do this for you (e.g. elance.com, odesk.com, jobs.wordpress.net). My other post should help orient him/her with what to do, you could post a link to it in your job description.

Hi Ken.

* If the user flushes thier browser cache, that seems to usually correct the issue for a short while, but the issue almost always returns within a day or two.

I agree that if it were a server thing, it’d be more general, but I’m not sure. It’s likely to have something to do with their browsers’ caching, since they seem to have solved the problem temporarily with it.

Are they being redirected to the Membership Options page? If so, could you have then copy the URL with all the MOP vars and send them to you so you can see better what restriction is being applied?

Could you ask one of them for his login info so you login to his account and browse the site when he reports having the access problem again?

Also, are they sure they’re still logged in when they get that access problem or if they were logged out for some reason? I’m starting to think this may have something to do with it…

Some have their browsers remove all cookies/sessions, and they may come back to the site expecting to still be in their account and browse the protected content, when they’re actually now logged out.

Hi Skip.

What do you mean exactly? I want to be sure I understand what you’re requesting. :)

If you mean have the user be moved between lists when he changes his Level, that is already possible. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers -› Automate Unsubscribes/Opt-Outs[/hilite]

Hi Aaron.

Another user had asked about disabling those fields in the pro-form. This was Jason’s response, which may be useful in your case: http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/authorize-net-proforms-can-i-disable-fields/#post-20569

I hope it helps. :)

Hi Ken.

I haven’t used those yet, or had feedback on one that has been used together with s2Member.

I’m not sure how they don’t work together, though. Could you explain in what way?

Thanks! :)

Got it, I’ll wait for Jason then.

I’m not sure when he’ll check in, but I’ll let you know as soon as I hear back from him.

Thanks for your patience. :)

Thanks Kevin. I emailed Jason letting him know what you replied. I’ll let you know as soon as I hear back from him, or he may just reply here directly.

Hi Synergy.

I have posts that need to be access by everyone, even non-logged in viewers. However, for category XYZ, the the_content() needs to only display for level #2. The rest of the single.php template that I’ve coded needs to display, i.e. the_excerpt(). It’s there for teaser content/seo reasons.

If you’re talking about the excerpt being displayed to everyone in the Category archive, then you can just protect the posts in it with the Category restriction and adjust your Alternative Views protection to achieve that.

[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Category Access Restrictions[/hilite]
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Alternative View Protection[/hilite]

If you’re talking about showing just the excerpt in the post itself, and not the rest, then you do need to work with the template using conditionals, as Eduán mentioned above. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals[/hilite]

I hope it helps. :)
