1. Last time I checked, paypal standard will let you sell products to CC without an account. However, if you are creating a subscription, PP Standard requires an account where PP Pro with Subscriptions does not. That page you list simply says you can accept CC with standard, but it doesn’t list all the details. You can still use standard but if you are using subscriptions they will have to have a paypal account or create one when signing up. I’ve never tried to use pp standard with the pro forms. I don’t think it will work. But you can still use the normal paypal standard buttons within s2member pro. Hope that helps, |

If they are logged in when they make the purchase, it should automatically upgrade them without re-registering. Dave |

do you have any other functions hooking into the profile form besides the normal s2member functions? Have you tried re-installing the s2member files? Dave |

I assume you are using the administrative user profile edit form. How are you inputting the CC’s? Separated by comas? Dave |

Take a look at the code on this post. I think that might be what you are looking for. http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/basic-setup-to-allow-just-1-page-in-level-1/#post-9997 Hope it helps, Dave EDIT: Why? basically, you have your site locked down, so it’s trying to go to the membership options page. This function will instead route the user to the login screen.

You would usually put it in functions.php (so a child theme may be good) or in a file located in a folder like this wp-content/mu-plugins/s2hacks.php. You may need to create this folder and file. Yes, you should be able to ammend those redirects to whatever page you want. :) Hope it works, Dave |

The only way I can think to do this is to use the full paypal button html/php provided by s2member when you generate a button and make the following modifications: 1. add an id to the paypal form
2. remove or hide the image input line from the paypal button.
3. add a link with the text you want.
Hope that helps, Dave |

As far as I know this is not possible without hacking the wordpress form itself. You can of course re-order your custom fields, however, wordpress prints out the custom fields after the initial core required fields. Dave |

The url you mentioned doesn’t bring up any site so I can’t see what you are talking about. Could you update that url? Dave |

Did you wait a full 24 hours? Have you checked the database to see if the user had an auto EOT set? Did their role say level 1 or did they just have access to level 1 content? (wondering if maybe the content security was set up wrong) Dave |

This might be a good place to start. I think it’s similar to what you described above. http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/problem-with-your-client-portal-system/#post-8469 Hope it helps, Dave |

LOL sorry, was dealling with meta values all day… table: wp_options The value I gave you should be good. I just removed the actual s2member roles. I didn’t remove the capabilities to access those levels by admin, authors, etc. Those capabilities are what you are seeing. If you use it to replace your roles, you shouldn’t see any s2member roles in the dropdown. You won’t find any data that starts exactly like mine because mine is already altered. since it’s a serialized array, your’s will look different as there are more roles in your array. Unfortunately, s2member does not remove it’s role information from the database (not sure why), so unless you use some other plugin… like a Role Editor plugin or something, you’d have to do it this way. I’ve not tried removing roles via a plugin, but that may be an easier option. Hope that helps. Dave |

The s2member login widget should be found under Appearance -> Widgets. You will need to have sidebars in your theme. You can also access the php code in s2member -> API Scripting -> Pro Login Widget via PHP Hope that helps, Dave |

The roles are set in the database as a serialized array. You will need to edit this array to remove the s2member levels from the roles. table: wp_options
Hope that helps, Dave |

Pro works more like a plugin for s2member. So all your settings should be saved as they are now and everything should work exactly the same, just more options will appear when the Pro version is uploaded. I would still recommend that you back up your files and db any time you make changes by adding or removing a plugin. However, it should not be a problem as long as you follow the install instructions. Dave |

Are you viewing the post as a user or as the admin. Also, is the user you are viewing the post for set up with an EOT? Not trying to say you are dumb, but people do forget to check these things some times. :) Dave P.S. I’ve never seen this plugin but I may check it out. |

There is no native way to do this in the free version and I’m not sure about the pro version, but I don’t think so… I would hook into the login processing with a hook like this in your functions.php file in your theme or your s2hacks.php file in wp-content/mu-plugins:
I’ve not tested it thoroughly but that’s the basic idea. Hope that helps, Dave |

I don’t think a registration page modal will work because it doesn’t send the form processing through ajax. However, I was thinking. There is no reason why you can’t just open the registration form in a new window or even a pop-up. That way they can keep the article open and also register. The only reason I could see that this wouldn’t work would be if you are only giving them partial access to the article and you want them to have full access to the article they were reading after they register. If that is the case, I think you will have to go the custom hook redirection (which means you may have to also have them log in after registering so the system will know they should have access to the info. Hope that helps, Dave |

If the modal registration form is not something that will work, then you will have to custom code your return to the page using a hook in the s2member processing. If you are selling memberships, you will need to send that page_id through the paypal system instead of just through the registration system, so it’s a slightly different process depending on how you need to use it. I’ll check on the modal option and get back with you. Otherwise, the only way I can think to do it is to hook into the registration processing routines to redirect to the page they were on. Dave |

1. Yes, in fact you can create multiple different paypal buttons (and payment amounts) for each level. S2member just ensures that the payment has gone through, no matter the price in the button, and gives access to the user. 2. You can add anyone at any level for free through the normal “add user” option in wordpress. Just select the proper s2member level as their “role” when creating them. You can also add an EOT (end of term) date to their profile when creating or updating the user’s info if you only want to give them access for a limited amount of time. 3. Currently S2member doesn’t have this option. However, I have read of other owners using other third party plugins to manage this part. I’m not sure what they are so hopefully someone else will chime in on that. 4. The paypal button generators will give you the option to allow a free trial period when generating your buttons. My suggestion is to go through the video tutorials, especially the one below so you get a good feel of how it all works before jumping in. http://www.s2member.com/videos/ Hope that helps. Dave |

I’ve never tried it, but I assume it can be done by just adding it to a page and opening that page in popup or modal window. I might play around with it when I get a chance and report back. Dave |

This is all handled by Paypal. When s2member sets up the paypal subscription, they are locked in at that price unless you specifically modify their subscription. So your members should continue to pay the price they always have when you raise your prices. This should all work the way you want out of the box. :) Dave |

I agree that this needs to be added. I’ve even had this issue with the s2members site. Jason told me that he set my threshold higher somehow, but I haven’t seen that function in s2member to do that anywhere. I’ll update if I find it. Dave |

Are you doing paid subscriptions, free subscriptions or both? Dave |
