You just don’t add it. PayPal will only be there if you put the button there and require people to pay to register. If you don’t give them a button to pay, they won’t.

If you leave Open Registration enabled, then registration will be open and they won’t be required to pay to register. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Open Registration[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)

Hi Ben.

Did you complete the PayPal configuration in s2Member? Have you gotten it to work already and now you have this problem, or you’re just setting it up now?

Could you please show me the log entries too? [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Account Details -› Logging[/hilite]

Thanks!

Hi Arthur.

Could you confirm that s2Member is active in your installation? If it isn’t, then those fields related to s2Member would not be there.

That single opt-in hack for MailChimp is not exclusive to multisite installations.

You should tell the user somewhere that he’ll be getting your emails, or I believe it may could cause you trouble with MailChimp. You can mention it during registration and also in the New User email. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Email Configuration -> New User[/hilite]

Not letting users set their password on registration, but having WordPress generate one and email it to them in the New User email, requiring them to go open the email to then login, could be considered a double opt-in. It also works great to confirm the email address is valid. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields -> Allow Custom Passwords[/hilite]

The user would be added to the MailChimp list on registration, not on login, so it’s not like he’d activate the account in some way before being added to the list, accounts are active the moment they’re created in WordPress, unless some other plugin alters this.

I hope that clarifies things a bit. :)

Hi Fredrik.

You’d have to edit the profile page’s template to do that. s2Member doesn’t have a setting for it.

Yes, we’re working on this and plan to include those features in s2Member. I didn’t know that plugin existed, but it’s cool that you have it now to log right away. Glad you liked it and I hope it helps you. :)

Hi George.

Did you double check that you have s2Member activate in your plugins list? Or what do you mean by inactive? What are you expecting to have happen on registration? s2Member affects the registration in some ways:

– Allowing registration or not: If you have Open Registration disabled, then only those that paid will be allowed to register. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Open Registration[/hilite]

– Adding custom profile fields. These can also be integrated with BuddyPress, but BuddyPress’ profile fields don’t integrate with s2Member. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields[/hilite]

s2Member doesn’t affect what happens after registration, this is normally handled by WordPress, but I imagine BuddyPress has its own way. After registration the person can login to his account.

After login, the person would be taken to the page you configured in s2Member as the Login Welcome page, unless something else is over-riding it with its own redirection. Video » s2Member (Login Welcome Page Conflicts?)

I created a test account, but I didn’t see any s2Member custom profile fields. Was that the default BuddyPress registration form? Did you create custom profile fields with s2Member and activate the integration with BuddyPress?

Also, I didn’t notice it’s a multisite network when I registered, it didn’t mention getting a blog. Multisite registrations are normally over at /wp-signup.php if I’m not mistaken, but that is redirecting me to /join.

Got ya. Yeah, I just saw it a moment ago. I emailed Jason. :)

Thanks Chris for the extra info on the error. I’m emailing Jason about it to take a look. :)

Sort of, it’d mean more to Jason, though. I can point you to a couple things that are related:

[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced Query Conditionals[/hilite]
Video » s2Member (Advanced Conditionals)

Also, check if the Alt. Views restriction works with your theme’s shortcode, if they’re using WordPress’ template. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Alternative View Protection[/hilite]

I hope it helps.

That’s because, although you logged out, you probably used the same URL generated when you were still logged in. The URL has the var s2_referencing=1, where user ID 1 is the admin account.

You need to use the shortcode in the page and load the page again once you logged out, so a new URL gets generated. Also, don’t hardcode the URL in the page, keep using the shortcode so s2Member generates a new URL on each page load.

I hope that helps. :)

Cool. I’ll assist you as best I can. Could you link to the conversation you started there, please? Or we can continue here if you prefer it.

By the way, I noticed that you still have the “Free User” icon, were you logged in to this account when you paid for the license or did you create a new account?
