Ryan, could you submit your site’s info so I take a look at your installation?

If you aren’t using the Alt View Restriction, then the posts would show in the archives and home page (when it’s set to show latest posts). The post would show complete or up to the “more” tag if you’re using it. This applies when you’re restricting the post with an s2Member level or custom capability.

Since you want to have a teaser for each post, I’d suggest using the “more” tag in your posts. When the user clicks the “read more” link where the “more” tag splits the post, the user will be taken to the Membership Options Page if he doesn’t have the proper access for that post.

Don’t make the Membership Options Page the same as the Home page, this is known to cause problems.

The Membership Options Page could have a login box, or a link to the login page.

Hi Michael.

1. Current membership of user
3. Real name
4. Display name

[hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› PHP/API Constants[/hilite]

2. Time remaining of the current membership

If the user has an EOT time set, you can get it with [hilite mono]get_user_field[/hilite]. http://www.s2member.com/codex/stable/s2member/api_functions/package-functions/#src_doc_get_user_field%28%29

Buy Now transactions set the EOT time right after checkout. For subscriptions the EOT is set when it ends, so it’ll be empty while it’s still going.

If it’s empty, [hilite mono]s2member_pro_paypal_rbp_times_for_user[/hilite] may help: http://www.s2member.com/codex/stable/s2member/api_functions/package-functions/#src_doc_s2member_pro_paypal_rbp_times_for_user%28%29

5. Membership ID

Not sure what you mean by this one.

6. Option to upgrade or downgrade and renew membership

Also, How do i get the Buddypress profile to show the same

You’ll need to edit its template, I guess.

The plugin and code you’re using should be fine.

Everything looks good on the visual page but when I try to get into the dripped pages ahead of the 10 day drip … it ALLOWS me access when it should not.

Are you sure you logged out of your admin account? I’d use a separate browser to view the content, that way you can remain logged in to your main browser as the admin to make changes as needed.

If that doesn’t help, maybe it’s the caching? If you have caching enabled, disable it and see if it helps.

Other than that, there are these things you can try: Knowledge Base » Common Troubleshooting Tips

Is that correct? Does this actually MOVE the users or just COPY them? I need for them to have all permissions for blog 6 in a buddypress type installation. (in blog id 6)

When you import them to the other blog you’ll be creating them again, not moving the existing ones. Since you’ll be creating this users in the other blog, make sure the user ID field is empty. If you have a user ID, then s2Member will update the existing user, not create a new one.

Secondly, when I import,export, do I start from record #2 …since record 1 contains the field names.

You can leave that row. The CSV file s2Member exports for reimportation has the correct format.

Hi Eric.

You can use the PayPal pro-forms. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Membership Level # Forms[/hilite]

It doesn’t require PayPal Pro, it’ll work with the free Express Checkout if you remove the card options from the shortcode: [hilite mono]accept="paypal"[/hilite].

Thanks for the update and sharing your solution, Marcia! I’m glad you sorted it out. :)

That’s very good. Thanks for the update. :)

Thanks for your new tests and updates. I’ll ask Jason about the stream error you quoted. Did you ask Amazon support about it?

What software are you opening the mp3 with to stream it? Could you tell me step by step how to reproduce the error? Does it happen with other similar software too?

Sure, you can send the info for the new installation you tried last. s2Member® » Private Contact Form

s2Member has the free registration pro-form, which you can use to register users at any level or with any custom capability, without requiring a payment. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Free Registration Forms[/hilite]

If you mean having different profile fields depending on the level the user is registering at, then the s2Member custom profile fields would help. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields[/hilite]

You could probably use Gravity forms for registration, since users are still created in WordPress, s2Member doesn’t change that. Not sure if they’d be able to use the s2Member profile fields, though.

Sorry about the confusion with the non-recurring subscription, I just explained it because it’s commonly mistaken by site owners with the Buy Now single payment and then wonder why no EOT time was set immediately.

The Buy Now transaction will set an EOT time immediately, as will the free registration pro-form if you use the tt and tp attributes. Have you tried these shortcodes?

Free: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Pro Forms -› Free Registration Forms[/hilite]

[s2Member-Pro-AuthNet-Form register="1" level="1" ccaps="" desc="Signup now for free!" custom="example.com" tp="1" tt="Y" captcha="clean" /]

Paid: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Pro Forms -› Membership Level 1 Forms[/hilite]

[s2Member-Pro-AuthNet-Form level="1" ccaps="" desc="$20.00 / One Time (for 1 year access, non-recurring)" cc="USD" custom="example.com" ta="0" tp="0" tt="D" ra="20.00" rp="1" rt="Y" rr="BN" rrt="" accept="visa,mastercard,amex,discover" coupon="" accept_coupons="0" default_country_code="US" captcha="0" /] 

Try those. Remember to use the correct value for the [hilite mono]custom[/hilite] attribute, as is given by the generator in your installation, please.

What do you mean by this?

That if you want to sell a membership giving a trial term (ta, tp, tt), it’ll only be possible with a subscription (rr=”1″), even if it’s a single payment and not recurring (rr=”0″). For the EOT time to be set immediately, it can only be done with a buy-now transaction (rr=”BN”), which doesn’t allow trial terms. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Pro Forms -› Shortcode Attributes -> rr[/hilite]

Why/how would I use the tp, tt attributes if it will be a Buy Now form?

I was talking about the free registration pro-form to set an EOT time, not the payment one.

P.S. – I’m using Authorize.net (if it makes a difference).

Sorry, I wrote the path to the free registration pro-form, although you’re using Auhorize.Net. In reality the free registration pro-form is independent of the payment gateway, so both work, but it becomes confusing if I point to the PayPal pro-forms section when you’re using Auth.Net. I edited my post to fix that.

Everything is working great with the paid membership form; the free one however is not working as intended.
Currently the shortcode is:

[s2Member-Pro-AuthNet-Form level=”1″ ccaps=”” custom=”example.com” register=”1″ desc=”$20.00 / One Time (for 1 year access, non-recurring)” cc=”USD” a=”0″ ra=”20.00″ rp=”1″ rt=”Y” rr=”BN” rrt=”” accept=”visa,mastercard,amex,discover” coupon=”” accept_coupons=”0″ default_country_code=”US” captcha=”0″ /]

That’s not a free registration pro-form. This is a correct one for 1 year at Level 1:

[s2Member-Pro-AuthNet-Form register="1" level="1" ccaps="" desc="Signup now for free!" custom="yoursite.com" tp="1" tt="Y" captcha="clean" /]

Use this generator for the free registration pro-form: [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Authorize.Net® Pro Forms -› Free Registration Forms[/hilite]

If all the above are okay, there’s also the possibility that something is causing wp-cron to not be working properly, which would be a problem if you have the EOT behavior set to use it. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Automatic EOT Behavior[/hilite]

Hi Marco.

I’m pretty sure that we haven’t said that vouchers are supported. Could you point me to where you read that, please?

Here’s our refund policy: s2Member® » Terms » Refund Policy

do you know a way to make S2 work with 100% free coupons?

This article may help: Knowledge Base » Offering a Free Coupon Code (100% Discount)

technically the 100% free coupon should not go thru the gateway to pay. it should just validate coupon code and email the login details if successful.

You could complement the solution in that article, with the Remote Operations API to create the new user. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Remote Operations API[/hilite]
