Oh, to take the person to another page, you’d use the success attribute for the pro-form. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Custom Return URLs Upon Success[/hilite] :)

Could you post a link to the page with the pro-form? And could you quote here the shortcode you’re using for it? Thanks!

[hilite mono]s2member_force_ssl[/hilite] is the custom field’s name and [hilite mono]yes[/hilite] is the value. :)

1. s2Member doesn’t prevent you from doing this.

2. You can have free registrations if you want. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Open Registration[/hilite]

Integration with email services like MailChimp is possible. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers[/hilite]

3. s2Member lets you edit the email WordPress sends to new users. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Email Configuration -> New User[/hilite]

4. You can protect pages/posts at Level 0, so being logged in is a requirement to access it.

5. s2Member doesn’t do this. I don’t know what to recommend for this.

6. This would need to be done by the solution you pick to manage your tests.

7. If you won’t restrict/show content based on whether the user purchased the certificate, then you can do it with a shopping cart, but if you plan to have s2Member restrict manage access based on this, you’ll need to sell through s2Member.

8. s2Member Pro has a User Export tool you could use. To identify users who complete the course, giving them a custom capability that reflects it, and this will let you pick those out from your exported users list.

I hope that helps.

Hi Terry. Sorry I didn’t get to your post yesterday.

You could handle all the membership with s2Member in WordPress. s2Member has a notifications API that lets you send data to an external app like yours. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Notifications[/hilite]. Please show it to your tech guy to evaluate if it can do what you need.

I hope that helps. :)

Hi Robert.

I checked your plugins and s2Member Pro is active there.

I checked the Membership Options page and I see the pro-form there. Actually, I see two pro-forms in the same page, which is not good because then they won’t work, you can only have one per page. What you can do is create a page for each and then link to them from the Membership Options page.

I see your account here doesn’t show you as a Paid Customer. Did you purchase the Pro license with the account you’re using now?

Hi Colten.

How did you add the SSL? Did you add a plugin for this? If so, I recommend that you remove it and instead use s2Member’s custom field for the page to enable it. Pre Sale FAQs » Is WordPress® compatible with SSL enabled?

SSL Tip: with s2Member® installed, you can add the Custom Field [hilite mono]s2member_force_ssl = yes[/hilite] to any Post/Page, using the Custom Fields section of your WordPress® Editor. s2Member® will buffer output on those special Posts/Pages, converting everything over to [hilite mono]https://[/hilite] for you automatically (in a very logical fashion), thereby forcing those specific Posts/Pages to be viewed over a secure SSL connection (including all embedded resources); so long as your server supports the https protocol (once you have an SSL certificate, your server should support this protocol). In this way, s2Member® can resolve about 95% of all theme/plugin incompatibilities related to SSL vs. non-SSL embedded resources. However, if you experience difficulties with this, you are advised to contact your theme developer, and ask if their theme was designed to support SSL-enabled Posts/Pages.

I hope that helps. :)

Hi Agnes.

Yes, you can remove it with the captcha attribute for the shortcode, just set it to [hilite mono]0[/hilite]. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Shortcode Attributes -> captcha[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)

David, the User Import panel has an example for the custom profile fields. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Import/Export -› User/Member Importation[/hilite]

The custom profile fields are imported with a special format, in column pairs, where the first column has the custom field’s ID and the second column has the value. For example: [hilite mono]"country","Canada","phone","1234567"[/hilite].

I hope that helps. :)

Hi Jeoffrey.

If you try loading the URL with some values instead of the replacement codes, does your script work fine?

Have you tried emailing yourself the notification info? There’s a field for it at the bottom of the Payment Notification’s panel. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Notifications -› Payment Notifications[/hilite]

Hmm… s2Member doesn’t have such a filter, and I don’t know if PayPal has it either.

I searched the plugins repository and found this one, which you could use in a PHP conditional to show or not the PayPal button for the user to pay. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ip-to-country/

Excellent! I’m glad I could help you. :)

If you’ll make them pay, then instead of a free registration pro-form, you could use a Level 1 pro-form with Express Checkout as the payment option, that way they’ll enter their registration info in the pro-form and then on clicking the button they’ll be taken to PayPal to login and pay.

Ask PayPal to activate Express Checkout for you (which is free, and usually enabled by default). PayPal Express Checkout will give you API Credentials, and you’ll enter these under [hilite path]WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Options[/hilite]. In the pro-form’s shortcode change the attribute [hilite mono]accept_via_paypal="paypal,visa,mastercard,amex,discover,maestro,solo"[/hilite] to just [hilite mono]accept_via_paypal="paypal"[/hilite].

Then you can customize where they get taken back to using the success attribute. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Custom Return URLs Upon Success[/hilite]

Login is not automatic after registration, you’ll need to apply a hack to achieve this. Some months ago I helped write one for this, but I don’t know how it’d work in the current release of WordPress, haven’t tested it lately. You’ll need to customize it a bit for your use, I guess.

I hope that helps.
