Meg,

If you want, I can take a look at it and see if I can find why it’s not working.

You would need to have some php function to handle this I think.

I would use something like this:

You may need to create this file / directory: wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-hacks.php
Then put the following code in the s2-hacks.php file.

<?php
add_shortcode('dw-datecheck','dw_registration_access');
function dw_registration_access($atts,$content){
	extract(shortcode_atts(array('start' => date('Y:01:01')),$atts)); //set the shortcode attributes
	
	if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_REGISTRATION_TIME <= strtotime($start)){ //Check the user's time vs the time set in the shortcode.
		return do_shortcode($content); //run the content
	}
}

?>

I just threw this together real fast without testing it, but that’s the basic idea.

Then you would use this around your protected content:

[dw-datecheck start="10/23/2013"]
This is the protected info.. only for users who joined on or before 10/23/2013.
[/dw-datecheck]

Hope that helps,

Dave

Try changing the code I offered to use custom capabilities instead of member levels… something like this:

<?php
add_action('init','my_login_redirect');
function my_login_redirect(){
	if(isset($_GET['dw_redirect']) && $_GET['dw_redirect'] == 'special'){
		if(current_user_can('access_s2member_ccap_client')){ //replace client with your ccap
			//Redirect Client Portal
			wp_redirect('client_page_'.S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ID); //replace 'client_page_' with page slug
		}
		else if(current_user_can('access_s2member_ccap_premium')){ //replace premium with your ccap
			//Redirect for Premium Users
			wp_redirect('premium_page'); //replace 'premium_page' with page slug
		}
		else {
			//Redirect to standard page for free users
			wp_redirect('standard_page'); //replace 'standard_page' with page slug
		}
	}
	
	exit;
}
?>

Maybe I’m just talking to myself in circles but it seems like this is functioning correctly…

If open registration is turned off, then it should give you a message instead of the registration form.
If open registration is on, it allows level 0 (free) members to join.

So, it sounds like it’s doing what it should. Can you explain how you expect / want it to work? It may just be an issue of s2member not working like you thought it would.

You can probably make it work the way you want though, it’s very flexible if you know what you are doing.

Dave

I think there is a video about this somewhere, but here is a link to a brief description:

Dave

Are those three access types using the s2member user levels or custom capabilities?

You may need to set up a hook to parse more information about the user and redirect accordingly.

You can do this by creating the following file/directory: wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-hacks.php

<?php
add_action('init','my_login_redirect');
function my_login_redirect(){
	if(isset($_GET['dw_redirect']) && $_GET['dw_redirect'] == 'special'){
		if(current_user_can('access_s2member_level2')){
			//Redirect Client Portal
			wp_redirect('client_page_'.S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ID); //replace 'client_page_' with page slug
		}
		else if(current_user_can('access_s2member_level1')){
			//Redirect for Premium Users
			wp_redirect('premium_page'); //replace 'premium_page' with page slug
		}
		else {
			//Redirect to standard page for free users
			wp_redirect('standard_page'); //replace 'standard_page' with page slug
		}
	}
}
?>

This *should* allow you to specify the redirections.

Set the login url to yoursite.com/?dw_redirect=special

Let me know if that doesn’t work.

Dave

Are you talking about the back end account profile form or a page that you’ve created with the s2member profile shortcode.

If you are expecting to go to the back end, check the settings: General Options -> Member Profile Modifications -> Redirect Members away from the Default Profile Panel?

That will allow or dissallow back end profile access.

Hope that helps,

Dave

The only other options would be to use the Pro version so you can use one of the other integrated payment options or have someone build one custom for you. (which will cost more than buying the pro version)

Dave

Does the paypal button work with the open registration turned off?

What is the shorcode you are using on your “registration” page?

Dave

Try including the sub directory like this:

[s2File download="access-s2member-ccap-mike/Do_The_Math.mp3" download_key="true" /]

What is the direct url to those files? Where do you have them stored?

Really, it’s just whatever you want it to be…

So, if I want Bob to only have access to specific pages I might add the custom capability “bob” or if he likes popcorn I might use “popcorn”.

It’s 100% your choice as long as the user’s capabilities match the page/post capability.

Does that make sense? Do you see where to add it for users and where to add it for posts/pages?

Dave

NOTE: if you are trying to play the file right there instead of downloading it, you might have to add inline=”yes” to get it to work like this:

[s2File download="mike.mp3" download_key="true" inline="yes" /]

I don’t use downloads much so I’m not 100% sure how this works. lol :)
