Thanks for the screenshots. They look fine.

OK, so you tried deactivating all other plugins and the default theme, and you still had the redirection to the admin page. Did you refresh the login page after each change to make sure you weren’t trying the page cache from before the change?

Is that test account a normal one as the ones your customers would have or is it an admin account? Did you edit the role in any way to add a capability it doesn’t have by default (e.g. edit posts)?

What happens if you deactivate the s2Member plugin?

Go to your Account page here:

and look under the subheading [hilite path]My Additional File Downloads[/hilite]. :)

Hi Laura.

You can specify the return URL using the success attribute in your shortcode.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Shortcode Attributes -> success[/hilite]
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Custom Return URLs Upon Success[/hilite]

Also, here’s a bit from the documentation:
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› PayPal® PDT Integration[/hilite]

*Quick Tip* In addition to the default Auto-Return/PDT configuration inside your PayPal® account, the Auto-Return URL is also set on a per-transaction basis from within the special PayPal® Button Code that s2Member provides you with. In other words, if you have multiple sites operating on one PayPal® account, that’s OK. s2Member dynamically sets the Auto-Return URL for each transaction. The result is that the Auto-Return URL configured from within your PayPal® account, becomes the default, which is then overwritten on a per-transaction basis.

*PayPal® Pro Tip* The tip above, is ALSO true for PayPal® Pro integration. There are no conflicts with Auto-Return/PDT.

I hope that helps. :)

Ric, I just noticed from your log entry that you have a quite outdated version of s2Member installed: v110620.

There have been several improvements to the MailChimp integration in these past 9 months. I strongly suggest that you update your installation to the latest release, since your problem is probably solved already.

Remember to make a backup of your site first!

I hope that helps. :)

Just wanted to mention something, since Eduán said “wherever you want the button to appear”, as long as it’s whithin WordPress, since it’s a WP shortcode it won’t work outside of WordPress pages/posts.

Do you need to have the ClickBank button outside WP?

Also remember that when using the full HTML version of the button, a user can edit it and get access you didn’t mean to give at a price you weren’t asking. That’s why it’s preferred to use the encrypted version, either generated by s2Member or when you create a button over at PayPal.

Hi Ryan.

I saw Jason replied your email about this. In case you didn’t get it, here’s what he said:

It’s true that s2Member’s Proxy IPN URL could be used for this. However, it’s NOT usually just that easy, unfortunately. As mentioned in the administrative panel for s2Member, there are two fields that MUST match what s2Member expects to see. The custom value in any PayPal IPN response (forwarded, or otherwise), must always match the installation domain for your s2Member-powered site. Also, the item_number field must also match a Membership Level #.

For further details, please check your Dashboard under: [hilite path]s2Member -> PayPal Options -> IPN Integration -> Proxy URL[/hilite].

Given the issue that I just mentioned, most site owners integrating s2Member in this way, will implement a proxy of their own, on top of s2Member’s Proxy URL. In this way, your server would receive a forwarded IPN response through a small custom script that you write. That script would add the variables that s2Member needs (modifying the original IPN slightly), and then sending everything to s2Member’s Proxy IPN URL handler.

As an s2Member Pro customer, you have access to the [hilite mono]/s2m-pro-extras.zip[/hilite] file, which contains an example script called: [hilite mono]central-ipn-sample.php[/hilite]. While that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, many of our customers have used that script as a good starting point for building such an integration as you’ve described. You’ll find this example file inside the [hilite mono]/s2m-pro-extras.zip[/hilite] file, through your account at s2Member.com.

I hope it helps!

Hi Charlie.

The ClickBank integration is fairly simple, pretty similar in complexity to the PayPal one, really.

It only take a bit more work if you want to use a custom thank-you page. That’s explained in the documentation and doesn’t take a coder to do either.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Thank-You Page Integration[/hilite]

I don’t know about the CB upsells, haven’t read about those yet. Could you explain a bit how they work, please? Would the original and upsell products both be in the same checkout, or would they be together with a product ID for the combo, or would one product be paid first and after checkout from one have the upsell and checkout for that one?

Hi Tiffany.

Is this what you’re looking for?

I hope it helps. :)

By the way, in case it’s of some use for someone that lands on this thread, there is a way to specify a custom success page for modifications too, Jason just told me how:

The success attribute will not work for modifications, only for new customers.

If you want a custom return URL after a modification to an existing account, this filter is available.

[hilite pre_code]
add_filter("ws_plugin__s2member_redirection_url_after_modification", "my_redirection", 10, 2);
function my_redirection($url, $vars)
{
return "http://www.example.com/my-custom-modification-ty-page/";
}
[/hilite]

Hi James.

I tried the link you posted and I’m not sent to the Membership Options Page, I get a 404 “file not found” error.

Are you sure the file’s name is correct? Could you try removing the space from the name?

By the way, you don’t need the leading slash, just the file name. Did you put the file in the s2member-files directory?

You may want to have the shortcode output the PayPal URL and use that in the link with your custom image.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Shortcode Attributes -> output[/hilite]

I hope that helps. :)
