I configured the login welcome page when I had the s2member free version to be the home page.

That’s fine. What page is it? Could you give me the URL?

When I enrolled in Clickbank, per their instructions, I set up a HOP page for the pitch/sales page: bizzycity.com/clickbank

That just sends me to the home page.

I also kept the original membership options page bizzycity.com/join for visitors who were not referred by Clickbank

That one I can access and the link to order from ClickBank doesn’t seem to be generated with an s2Member shortcode.

I am still not sure what the link to the registration page is that I should put in my thank you page?

That isn’t changed by s2Member. It’d normally be [hilite mono]/wp-login.php?action=register[/hilite] although BuddyPress redirects it to [hilite mono]/register/[/hilite], but multisite installations change it to [hilite mono]/wp-signup.php[/hilite]. I don’t know what happens with the multisite-BuddyPress combo.

Went to buddypress.org and tried /wp-login.php?action=register, got redirected to /register/ and got a “Page Not Found” error… http://buddypress.org/wp-login.php?action=register You could ask them about this problem too.


By the way, I’d try, as a test, to see if there isn’t a theme or plugin causing all these anomalies.

Try changing the theme to the default TwentyEleven for a moment and try the registration.

If that didn’t solve it, try deactivating other plugins you have installed, one by one, and test after each to see if the problem continues.

You can test from another browser to avoid logging in and out of your admin account each time.

I hope that helps.

You should return the user to the URL s2Member gave you, but you can show your custom thank-you page too. It’s explained in the last part of the section I pointed you to for the thank-you page.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Thank-You Page Integration[/hilite]

Basic Example ( please remember to URL encode the value ):
http://www.bizzycity.com/?s2member_pro_clickbank_return=1&s2member_pro_clickbank_return_success=http://www.bizzycity.com/thank-you/

Proper Example ( with the URL having been encoded properly ):
http://www.bizzycity.com/?s2member_pro_clickbank_return=1&s2member_pro_clickbank_return_success=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bizzycity.com%2Fthank-you%2F

Cool. :)

Thanks for the screenshot. Okay, not the URI restriction then.

Could you tell me what page you chose for the Login Welcome Page and for the Membership Options Page?
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Login Welcome Page[/hilite]
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Membership Options Page[/hilite]

In the thank-you page you’d just link to the registration page. Once the person got to the thank-you page after the checkout, s2Member would have received confirmation of the payment (in most cases, sometimes there’s a slight delay from CB) and set a cookie in the user’s browser that’ll let him register in your WP even if you have Open Registration disabled.

What is your thank-you page? Are you using s2Member’s default? If not, how did you do the customization? All the instructions for that are in this section:
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Thank-You Page Integration[/hilite]

Jean-Michel, you’ll need to create a hack for this.

Make a copy of the file [hilite mono]/wp-content/plugins/s2member/includes/menu-pages/paypal-buttons.inc.php[/hilite] and put it in your [hilite mono]/wp-content/mu-plugins/[/hilite] directory. This is to prevent that future updates of the plugin remove your edit. You’ll have to check manually if new updates are supposed to do something to this file, so you have your version up-to-date with the new fixes as well.

Now, in line 75 you’d edit the $ symbol:

[hilite pre_code]
... I want to charge: $ ...
[/hilite]

If your client will be changing the currency, it may be best to just remove the currency symbol or he’ll get confused, cause the symbol won’t be updated in the button generator when the currency is.

In line 76, find the part that says:

[hilite pre_code]
' . trim (c_ws_plugin__s2member_utilities::evl (file_get_contents (dirname (dirname (__FILE__)) . "/templates/options/paypal-currencies.php"))) . '
[/hilite]

and replace it with everything starting from line 6 in the file [hilite mono]wp-content/plugins/s2member/includes/templates/options/paypal-currencies.php[/hilite].

There remove the [hilite mono]selected="selected"[/hilite] part from the USD option and put it in the EUR one.

I haven’t tested this, but I think it’ll work. I hope it helps. :)

You mention using multisite. Are you giving blogs to the members?

Posted: Wednesday Mar 7th, 2012 at 2:54 pm #7572

Stephen, the return from ClickBank doesn’t take you to a registration page, but a thank-you page, and that doesn’t redirect to registration, instead it should have a link to it. You have to use the return URL given to you by s2Member.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Thank-You Page Integration[/hilite]

http://www.bizzycity.com/?s2member_pro_clickbank_return=1

Yet, the link in the confirmation email should work, but isn’t. I’m with Raam suspecting the URI restrictions. Looks like you’re protecting all BuddyPress and that included the registration page. Could you show us a screenshot of it?
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› URI Access Restrictions[/hilite]

I’m guessing the Join page is what you set as the Membership Options page. In it I see that you’re using a ClickBank order link that doesn’t look generated by s2Member. Are you using a shortcode for it? Could you post it here?

Thanks!

Very cool! Glad that solved it. :)

I’ll mention this to Jason, that “all” behaves differently than all checked individually.

Posted: Wednesday Mar 7th, 2012 at 2:25 pm #7570

Right! Glad you solved it. :)

Hi Richard.

You can try a plugin for that. This one may do what you need:

I hope that helps. :)

Hello Jennifer.

It could have been a temporary problem. If you test again, do you still get that problem?

Could you post the related entries, x’ing out private info?
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Account Details -› Logging[/hilite]

Posted: Wednesday Mar 7th, 2012 at 4:47 am #7536

I’m not sure I understand the question.

You had some pages redirect to Page A and now you prefer to have them go to Page B, but don’t feel like fixing the previous redirections? If so, you could just have a new redirection on Page A pointing to Page B.

Does that help? :)

Hi Stephen.

ClickBank requires that the buyer is shown a certain message, so that is the first thing s2Member will show him after checkout. The default page s2Member uses for this can be customized or replaced if you prefer it, too.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Thank-You Page Integration[/hilite]

What do you mean with getting sent to the sign-up page when they click the link? The Membership Options Page where they start the purchase?

It’d be helpful to see the log entries related to the transaction, from all the log files, including the ones for PayPal (the PayPal integration code is partly used to process the ClickBank transactions). Please x out any private info, e.g. email address, last names.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› ClickBank® Options -› Account Details -› Logging[/hilite]

I don’t know, you’d have to search about the WordPress and Disqus single sign-on possibilities. I’m not familiar with that.

Regarding s2Member, if the user is logged in to his WordPress, then the WP role he has, or custom capabilities, are what will determine what content s2Member lets him access.

I hope that helps.

Hello Lars.

Of the current payment gateways integrated with s2Member, only Authorize.Net will let you get paid on your site as PayPal Pro does. The other integrations work with buttons that will take the person to the gateway’s site to pay.

Hello Barbara.

We plan to make this possible in the coming major release of s2Member.

For now, this post by Jason may help you customize the emails a bit:

I’ll ask Jason. Thanks for the new data.

Posted: Wednesday Mar 7th, 2012 at 3:47 am #7528

What’s the URL to his profile? Is there a string in your URI restrictions that has a match in the URL?

Posted: Wednesday Mar 7th, 2012 at 12:51 am #7525

Thanks, John.

I remembered a similar problem in the past and searched for the forum conversation on it. Please see if this post by Jason helps: http://www.primothemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=6338#p14559

s2Member handles redirections to the Membership Options Page in the same fashion, even on a Multisite Network installation. All requests that are denied access, get redirected to the Membership Options Page that has been configured by the site owner, for that particular Blog on the Network.

If your theme is producing Not Found messages, here are some things I would check on.

1. Does your Membership Options Page exist?
2. Do you have any other plugins that are forcing redirections that may conflict with s2Member?
3. Have you enabled s2Member's Alternative View Restrictions? (did you set them to All?)

When s2Member's Alternative View Restrictions are set to "All", all protected content is excluded from public view; including any listings that would normally be displayed in category archive views. In some themes, this can result in your theme producing a Not Found message, because there are no results to display in that category archive (i.e. http://fashionpass.blacktopshopping.com/category/womens-accessories/)

In other words, instead of saying " there are no items in this category ", some themes will simply say " Not Found ". You can either modify your theme to display the message you prefer, or turn s2Member's Alternative View Restrictions off.

Or, you could work on making navigation menus within your site more dynamic, so that category archives which are unavailable to the public, are not displayed, or are redirected to the Membership Options Page.

Another thing that might help. In cases where you are protecting all content within a Category Archive, if you protect the entire Category with s2Member, then s2Member will simply redirect all requests to that Archive, to your Membership Options Page; and that way the "Not Found" message being introduced by your theme, would never be displayed. So for example, you might try protecting this entire Category, instead of each Post within it. http://fashionpass.blacktopshopping.com/category/womens-accessories/

Please let us know if this problem continues; we'll do everything we can to assist you.

You can use s2Member to control access to a forum that’s served by WordPress, using the URI restriction.
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› URI Access Restrictions[/hilite]

There’s also the bbPress bridge, which is documented here:
[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Other Integrations -› bbPress®[/hilite]

I hope that helps.
