No problem. :)

Hi Greg.

No, s2Member doesn’t really do that. The URI restriction would work fine if you wanted to give access to all profiles together, but individual ones wouldn’t be practical.

Maybe you could sell custom capabilities with the usernames of the members. Then you could customize the public profile page’s template to add a conditional that checks for the custom capability that matches the username of the profile requested, and based on that allow access or present a message charging for it.

These would help with that:

I hope that helps. :)

Hi Maxim.

Sorry for the delayed reply, I missed your post when I was answering questions yesterday.

1. I would like to have there 7 user types beginning from Guest and finishing with Advanced user, can I add user roles using this plugin?

Yes. s2Member comes with 4 paid user roles for the access levels. s2Member Pro lets you increase the number to what you need, e.g. 7. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Membership Levels/Labels[/hilite]

Now, levels give incremental access (unless you edit the role capabilities with another plugin), but s2Member custom capabilities let you sell access that isn’t incremental. Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities)

2. I need a registration form from where users can be register only as Learners and Regular. Can this be done? Also, can I change user type after some time or when I would like to do this if I would be the admin?

You can edit the user’s role or access manually from the user’s profile any time you want.

s2Member Pro has the pro-forms that you can place in any WP page or post with a shortcode. You can specify at what level or with what custom capabilities the user registers, and give that an expiration time. These can be used for paid or free registrations. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms[/hilite]

3. Can I set what text, pages, posts and other content each user can see?

You can set what they can see/access based on the s2Member level or custom capability he has.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options[/hilite]
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Simple/Shortcode Conditionals[/hilite]

4. Can I update to Unlimited-Site License if I would buy Single-Site License first?

Yes, and you’d just pay the difference. In your Account page there is a link to do the upgrade from your license to the higher one. http://www.s2member.com/account/

I hope that helps. :)

Wow, Kevin, thanks so much for the kudos! It’s so nice of you to take the time to write this. You made my day. :)

I’m very happy that you’re satisfied with the support and the plugin. We’ll keep trying our best!

By the way, if you have suggestions to improve the UI in some way, please don’t hesitate to tell us. Jason and I will soon move to the UI phase of the new s2Member and any feedback we get will help improve what we have now.

And Eduán, thanks so much for the heads up!

First of all, we’ve launched!

Awesome! :D

Members have been invited. Some have already signed up – at the same time. But some show up in the Membership Directory, and some don’t even though, when I look at Dashboard – – > Users they all show up and they all have the right Role.

Are you using BuddyPress? The members not showing up in the directory may not have activated their accounts yet. Account activation is something BuddyPress adds.

Hi Tuhin.

Scenario 1:

It’s better to avoid it giving in the sales page a clear instruction to existing users to login to their account before purchasing.

But if you had this happen, then you’d ask the user for the subscr. ID he got from PayPal and you’d edit his profile to add it there, and you’d change his role to the new level, or add the custom capabilities if you sold him any.

Or, if there’s nothing valuable in the existing account, you could change the email address in it so he doesn’t get the error when trying to register the new account.

Scenario 2:

s2Member sends a confirmation email when PayPal notifies s2Member about the payment. This email includes a registration link that will give the new account the access the user paid for. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Signup Confirmation Email[/hilite]

This special registration link will let the user create his account even if you have Open Registration disabled. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Open Registration[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)

Thanks for the screenshot, the settings look fine. Got it on the version you have.

I wonder if ccBill is informing s2Member that the subscriptions are ending.

Do you have logging enabled? [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ccBill® Options -› Account Details -> Logging[/hilite]

Could you put the s2member-logs folder in a zip file and email me the link to it to take a look at the logs, please? s2Member® » Private Contact Form

Thanks. :)

Gaper, could you post the shortcode you’re using? I re-read the thread and am not sure now what you’re trying to do. Are you trying to register members for free at Level 1 and have them demoted to Level 0 after 5 days?

About the time left, you can calculate how many days since they registered to figure out the days left in the trial. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Content Dripping[/hilite]

tp=”1″ regular period = 1
tt=”W” regular term = Week

Dave, [hilite mono]tp[/hilite] and [hilite mono]tt[/hilite] are trial period and term, [hilite mono]rp[/hilite] and [hilite mono]rt[/hilite] would be the ones for the regular period and term. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Pro Forms -› Shortcode Attributes[/hilite] ;)

Awesome! Thanks for the update!

Philly, how did you know what plugin he had causing the conflict? Not the first time I see you do this. Are you an esper? :P

I’ve never edited the more link myself, so I googled it and found this article that seems may help you with that: http://digwp.com/2010/01/wordpress-more-tag-tricks/

Odd… It’s as if the output of the shortcode were the linked image instead of the URL… I got redirected to

http://atraccionla.com/ahref=http:/0.lmc541.pay.clickbank.net/?s2_invoice=1&s2_p1=0+D&s2_p3=1+M&s2_desc&s2_custom=atraccionla.com&s2_customer_ip=189.226.221.75&s2_subscr_id=s2-4fe447deb84ad&_s2member_sig=1340360670-24b608620fe5f3a1a5e434df82f56536imgsrc=http://atraccionla.com/wp-content/plugins/s2member-pro/images/clickbank-button.pngstyle=width:auto;height:auto;border:0;alt=ClickBank//a

If you use the shortcodes in a post, do they ouput the URL or the button?

Not sure why that is. I rewrote the hack to use another hook, and not use the switch. Let me know if this makes any difference:

[hilite pre_code]
'[[s2Member-Pro-ClickBank-Button cbp="1" level="1" ccaps="" desc="El Arte de la Atracción + La Primera Salida + 8 Switches de Atracción" custom="atraccionla.com" tp="0" tt="D" rp="2" rt="M" rr="0" image="default" output="url" /]]',
2 => '[[s2Member-Pro-ClickBank-Button cbp="2" level="4" ccaps="" desc="Sociedad Secreta Plata + 5 Guías Especiales + CERO DUDAS" custom="atraccionla.com" tp="0" tt="D" rp="1" rt="Y" rr="0" image="default" output="url" /]]',
3 => '[[s2Member-Pro-ClickBank-Button cbp="3" level="2" ccaps="" desc="Guía Especial Frases de Repertorio + Programa Cero Dudas" custom="atraccionla.com" tp="0" tt="D" rp="1" rt="M" rr="1" image="default" output="url" /]]',
4 => '[[s2Member-Pro-ClickBank-Button cbp="4" sp="1" ids="1464,1470,1481,1479,1477,1475,1473,1471" exp="1440" desc="Description and pricing details here." custom="atraccionla.com" image="default" output="url" /]]',
5 => '[[s2Member-Pro-ClickBank-Button cbp="5" sp="1" ids="1527,1470,1481,1479,1477,1475,1473,1471" exp="1440" desc="Description and pricing details here." custom="atraccionla.com" image="default" output="url" /]]',
);
if (isset($shortcodes[$_GET['clickbank']])) {
$clickbank_checkout = do_shortcode($shortcodes[$_GET['clickbank']]);
wp_redirect($clickbank_checkout);
exit;
}
}
}
[/hilite]

No problem. :)
