For the email opt-in you have a setting here: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / List Servers -› Registration Double Opt-In Box[/hilite]

For the T&C agreement, this should help: http://www.primothemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=2778

Not yet, I’m waiting for Jason to get to this email and reply. Since he’s focused on development the new s2Member now, he isn’t checking email daily. As soon as I hear back from him, I’ll let you know, or he may reply here himself. Thanks for your patience.

Hi Melanie. Let me check, sometimes a few emails get caught up in the spam folder… Found it. OK, I’ll forward it to Jason for review.

In the meantime, like I said, ClickBank buttons outside of the WP installation with s2Member, are possible. I can help you with the implementation if you need assistance with the solution Jason posted there, it’s actually quite simple. http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/using-clickbank-and-paypal/#post-11438

Jason is working on a way to do it without needing the hack, as long as it doesn’t compromise the button’s security to avoid editing by the customer. As soon as he manages this, the hack won’t be required, but in the meantime it’ll be needed, even if it’s not complicated.

Basically, your button in another site would just be a link back to your WP installation with s2Member, including ?clickbank or something like that at the end of the URL, so it can be picked up in the hack. Then the code in the hack checks if that “clickbank” var is there and if so, creates the s2Member link to ClickBank with all the needed signature and vars, and automatically redirects the user there.

PayPal is a company, not a single service, they have several products/services and, sadly, are not consistent between them. Their store is obviously integrated in a way that doesn’t use their API, which is what s2Member has to use, and the API requires it. Jason is aware of many of these discrepancies and problems, and is doing his best to smooth out as many as possible, but this is a limitation of their API and there’s only so much that can be done. :/

I see. OK, keep it enabled and, if it happens again, please post the related entries from all the log files, x’ing out any private info, so we take a look. :)

Cool. Glad we could help. :)

I see that now. Thanks!

I found this list of PayPal API errors: https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_api_nvp_errorcodes

Although I didn’t find an exact match for the one you got, could you try double checking your PayPal integration has all the values filled out correctly without any errors? [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options[/hilite]

I see that you don’t only have PayPal as a payment option in the pro-form, but the page is not served securely. Do you have SSL?

s2Member doesn’t have a tool to export/import the posts and their protection, but you can copy the posts in the way you can and then apply the restrictions to them from the restrictions page or from each post’s edit page. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options[/hilite]

If you give those posts a Level 3 protection, then users at Level 3 to get access, will also have access to the levels below it (i.e. 2, 1 and 0). Just mentioning it so you keep it in mind when you design your restrictions.

Another option is to use Custom Capabilities. Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities)

I hope that helps. :)

Well, if you create a hack to do it, then you can apply the ccap restriction to anything that’s served through WordPress. So if you have another forum that runs in WP as a plugin, you could do it.

Here’s an example of a hack Jason wrote for another user to restrict BuddyPress access using ccaps: http://www.primothemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=15857&p=53147#p53114

You will have to tweak it a bit to get it working the way you need it, but it’s not impossible. :)

I hope it helps. :)

Hmm… I don’t see the “Sign up now” button/link. Do you have it in another page?

Ravi, did you edit that file in any way? It sounds as if you had a space or newline outside of the PHP block. Have you tried replacing the file with a fresh copy of it from the zip archive? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/s2member/

Victor, you would need to edit the template that shows that info and use some conditionals to prevent/allow that depending on the type of member. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)
