You’re welcome, glad I was able to help. :)

Hello Lisa,

Have you followed the instructions on how to import/export found in this article?:
Knowledge Base » Importing existing subscriptions

Hope this helps. :)

My membership options page has check boxes that are attributed with the different capabilities. Then depending on which capabilities the user selects they are sent to a new page where the shortcode is generated based on their selections. If an existing member views the membership options page they are presented only with the options that they do not currently have the capabilities for. If an existing member chooses to purchase a new capability, will the new capability be added to their profile and not override the existing capabilities?

For example a user checks out using the shortcode [… level=”1″ ccaps=”cap_one” …] and then comes back later and checks out using [… level=”1″ ccaps=”cap_two” …]. Will this give the member both ccaps?

I believe this is correct, if the user doesn’t have a ccap then it will just add it to the user, there also methods to remove them and then put them back again.

Also, I believe you would accomplish this with advanced conditionals, which you can find under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals.

Another follow-up question. Does the free version of the plugin have an s2member configuration export option? I copied my database to a live webserver to test some of the paypal steps. WHen I copied the database over, none of the s2member settings were copied over with the database.

I’m not sure it does, the current version of s2Member saves it settings somewhere else I believe, if you copy the s2Member folders it should also come with the settings I think, never tried it though.

Hope this helps. :)

Glad I was able to help Greg. :)

It’s actually just the same code, just another coding style, didn’t change anything except for one thing, I renamed the variable $_g with $var, otherwise it could cause problems with PHP itself, because PHP uses the $_ to start it’s variables.

Hope this helps. :)

Wei, did you install the hack correctly? Could you post a copy of the hack you’re using? Thanks. :)

Hello Rocwing,

I don’t know why the URL wouldn’t work.

Also, the s2Member license doesn’t allow that:
s2Member® » Prices/Licensing

Please note… if you’re a developer, your clients will need to purchase their own Single-Site and/or Unlimited-Site License. We will not support s2Member® Product instances on domains that you do NOT own and operate yourself. We invite all developers to join our affiliate program, and refer their clients to s2Member.com, where your clients may purchase an s2Member® Product of their own. This also gives your clients access to future releases.

Hello Kyle,

This is not possible with s2Member, by default, but I believe it would be possible with a hack.

You would simply check, with the content dripping functions, if the user has a certain amount of time, and make a hack change the user’s level when that condition is met.

You can find the content dripping functions under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Content Dripping.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Jarl,

First, I understand your point, yes it is insecure, but this is WordPress, not s2Member.

Also, I believe WordPress expects people to use a secure email like Gmail.

so I thought about it a bit, and, how do you plan to give their passwords to users? Either way it’s gotta be given somehow, and it’s insecure anyway.

Hello Adam,

That seems like a cool idea, what exactly will it do? I had an idea for one, it basically instead of giving affiliate money it gave access to certain ccaps, levels etc. Also, how much do we have to collaborate with? Anything we want? Just so that people don’t have any questions. ;)

Looking forward to it. :)

Hello Soporose,

Well this isn’t exactly a job s2qMember can handle, it is able to do it, but I don’t think it was meant this way.

Anyway, I would use conditionals for this, you can find an article about them here:
Knowledge Base » s2Member® Conditionals

Hope this helps. :)

You’re welcome Alissa, glad to be able to help. :)

One little thing, this will have to be done every time you update WordPress, so you would have to do the following:

1. Create a PHP file named “button-hack.php” (without the double quotes).

2. In that file put the following:

<?php
if(strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '/wp-login.php') === true) {
	add_filter('gettext', 'my_translations', 10, 3);
	
	function my_translations($translated, $original, $domain) {
		if($original === 'Register')
			$translated = 'Submit';

		return $translated;
	}
}

3. Put that file in the folder called mu-plugins, which you can find under wp-content/mu-plugins.

Now I’m not sure if this will work, but pretty sure it will, have done it before with a different text.

This will ensure the text will always get replaced, even if you update WordPress.

Hope this helps. :)
