When you create your paypal buttons (s2memer -> paypal buttons -> select level), in the large dropdown box select paypal (buy now) One Time (for 3 day access, non-recurring, no trial).

Then when you generate your button it s2 will control all of that for you.

Hope that helps,

hm very odd. I honestly wouldn’t have a clue without looking at it.

Hopefully someone else has dealt with this and has a solution.

Are you sure the page exists? Usually it only shows that page if the link is to a non-existant page. How did you crete the menu link?

In order for s2member to protect your files, you will need to place your files in the s2member-files directory of the plugins folder. This folder is protected by s2member.

These videos show how to set it all up:

Without knowing exactly how your set-up works, that’s the best direction I can give at the moment.

It looks like you have the home page protected by s2member so it is re-directing to your membership options page.

Check to see if your home page is protected.

Have you checked the EOT of the members in question or your paypal log to see if maybe there was an error with the button they used that would be giving them a short or inaccurate membership period?

Dave

Dawnna,

I believe that when you set up closed registration, you are basically requiring users to use a subscription/buy button to pay, then they are directed to a registration page after payment.

That is why it’s saying registration is not available.

So, I would add a susbscription or paynow button on your membership options page and try going through that process to make sure it works correctly.

Hope that helps,

I’m not sure what you are talking about because I don’t have this function. I assume this is some captcha type field for checking to see if the user is human?

I could be wrong, but I don’t think that’s one of the s2member captcha options. Do you have any other plugins running?

Dave

First thought, which usually means its the most complicated way I can think to do it… lol.

Off the top of my head this is what I would do.

1. create a new page template in your theme that pulls a $_GET variable for the post_id then displays only the excerpt and the ad you want to display underneath. or if you are using a php execute plugin, you may be able to do this in a page itself without creating a theme template. you may have to play with it a little.
2. create a page (blank maybe or with the ad, not sure) titled something like “Ad Page” and select the new template for that page.
3. create a function like this and add it to your functions.php file or your mu-plugins/s2hacks.php file:

<?php
add_action("ws_plugin__s2member_before_wp_redirect_w_mop_vars","my_post_redirect");
add_action("ws_plugin__s2member_before_wp_redirect_wo_mop_vars","my_post_redirect"); // not sure which is best hook to use.

function my_post_redirect($vars=array()){
	//die(print_r($vars));
	if($vars['seeking_type'] == 'post'){
		$post_id = $vars['seeking_type_value'];
		//maybe add some more filtering to check if it's a specific post category or something.
		wp_redirect(site_url('ad-page/?post_id='.$post_id)); // Change ad-page to the slug of your page and make sure the $_GET['post_id'] is being checked.
	}
}
?>

If I have the right hook, this should automatically pull the id of the post and send it to you’re page for showing the add and the excerpt.

I’ve not tested this fully but initial tests seemed to work fine.

Hope that helps,
Dave

Max,

This seems to be a fairly common problem with wordpress… i found this page that gives several options, but apparently you can just md5 a new password into your account and it should work.

1. Check your theme template. 3 of the links in your top menu bar on the right point to the registration page.

2. The downloads are going to the downloads exceeded page. Check the settings in s2member->download options->basic download restrictions make sure those are filled in correctly.

Without looking at the back end thats the best I can say.

Dave

Well, if you HAVE to add them to the app’s db, then you can create a function and hook into the registration process right after all registration fields have been processed with wp.

Do the user ID’s matter if you are inputting them into the MS db?

If not, then using the simple hook should be fine. I assume you know how to access the MS SQL db from php.

Simply create a function to pull the info you need from the wordpress db in the correct sql statement to enter it into your MS SQL db.

Then add that to a file in your wordpress install under wp-content/mu-plugins/s2hacks.php. You may need to create the mu-plugins dir and the s2hacks.php file.

copy your code to the s2hacks.php file.

Then your file should look something like this after you add the necessary hook:

add_action('ws_plugin__s2member_after_configure_user_registration','my_db_copy_function');

function my_db_copy_function($user_id){
	//Your function code goes here.
	//$user_id is the id of the newly created user that is passed to your function by the hook.
}

Using that hook should run your function’s process right after the user’s registration information has been saved.

Hope that points you in the right direction.
