Hello Dan, thanks for your inquiry.

Could you please post the logs for the transaction?

You will find the logs under \wp-content\plugins\s2member-logs. Please post it under the code tags. Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know!

Glad you were able to solve your problem.

The reason that you couldn’t see them is because you probably put a specific level the user should have to see that field, since the admin technically has a higher level than 4, he will only see the level 4 stuff.

Hope this clears something up! :)

Thanks for the follow-up.

Thanks so much, that is EXACTLY what I am trying to do.

Excellent!

Do most of the other payment gateways offer the same sort of options?

Yes, most of the other payment gateways available with the pro version offer the same kind of options.

And while we’re on that topic – are there any gateways besides PayPal that can be used by a site without SSL?

I’m not very sure what you mean… If you mean that there’s any gateway(s) that don’t require SSL to function correctly, I believe the ones that come with s2Member pro don’t require this. Though I’m not so sure so I’ll ask our lead developer Jason, and see what he has to answer…

Also – I can’t tell you how much the rapid replies (on a Sunday!) bolster my confidence in recommending S2 Member to a friend!

Thanks for the Kudos!

Hello Thomas, thanks for your inquiry.

Here is a post of a user who has accomplished this in the past:

Note, that while it’s not exactly the same field, it is the same result.

Hope this helps. :)

Thanks for the follow-up.

Yes s2Member pro does include pro-forms:
Knowledge Base » s2Member® Pro-Forms

It can come in a shortcode version or an HTML version.

I hope this helps. :)

Hello Joe, thanks for the follow-up.

You will find the log entries under WordPress Directory -> wp-content -> plugins -> s2member-logs. You have to access these files through FTP in order to find them.

Hope this helps. :)

Excellent Vashte! :)

I was gonna suggest the same thing! ;)

Thanks for letting us know, glad you solved your problem. :)

Hello Nola, thanks for the follow-up.

A couple of questions (I wish the forums were searchable…if they are, I can’t find where):

There is a little blank bar almost at the top-right side of the website, you type whatever you’re looking for there and you hit enter to search.

(1) Using the method you described above, will members be automatic, or will they have to be approved by an admin? (my client wants to “approve” members)

They would be completely manual, unless configured otherwise. You see, the pages are protected, and only if your client gives them the link would they be able to access the page with the pro-form in it. So you would protect page for level 1 registration with specific post/page access restrictions, once protected you will put a pro-form there for the user to register at level 1. And whenever your client wants a new member level 1 he can simply generate the link for the specific post/page access restrictions.

(2) Is there a way to turn off the sign up confirmation email? On my client’s sites, he says this will just be a waste.

I believe this is not possible, and if it were, it would be a WordPress thing entirely, since the confirmation email is entirely sent by WordPress. :/

One more question…can notification of new registrations be turned off?

See my answer above…

I hope this helps. :)

Thanks for the follow-up.

Glad you solved your problem. :)

Hello Mike, thanks for your inquiry.

If with “PayPal ‘purchase’ process” you mean the buy-now, non-recurring buttons, then yes, this is possible.

With both the free version, and the pro version of s2Member.

Simply under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons, select the level you want to generate the button for, and just change it one of the dropdowns, from Monthly ( recurring charge, for ongoing access) to the PayPal buy now section of the dropdown, which will allow you to offer only one time payments.

Does this answer your question?

Hello Terry, thanks for your inquiry.

Before you hire someone for this, have you tried using s2Member conditionals?

You can find them under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Simple/Shortcode Conditionals.

There is also a KBA (Knowledge Base Article) on this:
Knowledge Base » s2Member® Conditionals

Does this solve your problem?
