Hello Marc,

This can easily be attained using custom capabilities and simple s2Member conditionals. You can look into them in the following links:
Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities)
Knowledge Base » Simple Shortcode Conditionals

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Nigel,

Could you try this instead:

<?php if (is_user_not_logged_in() && !current_user_can('access_s2member_level0')) { ?>
Public copy here.
<?php } elseif (current_user_can('access_s2member_level1') && S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS > 90) { ?>
Protected copy - but all users can see this copy as long as they have been registered for more than 90 days.
<?php } ?>

The first conditional was kind of messed up, I fixed it. :)

I understand Michael, I will contact Jason regarding this problem, perhaps he has a better handle on what could cause the problem.

I’m not sure how much it’ll take him to answer.

In the mean while, have you contacted your server provider’s regarding this? I mean, have you had your server provider’s look into what’s been modifying this file every time? I think something like that should be possible for server providers.

Here’s what he answered:

If they get the ezPHP plugin, they can do something like this:

[s2Member-PayPal-Button custom="www.example.com|<?php echo get_user_field("s2member_auto_eot_time"); ?>" /]

Thanks Mark!

When I visit toplaybaseball.com I receive the Optimize Press getting started guide. Perhaps this is causing the problem? Just a thought, that’s probably not the problem. :)

Hello there,

Well, if after payment/registration you want to send the user to a specific URL you would need to use the success attribute.

Check under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Shortcode Attributes (Explained) -› success for more info on this attribute.

Would doing that achieve your desired goal?

Hello there,

I haven’t used the login widget in this way before, but f the method you tried does not work, then it’s probably used this way:

<?php
$options = array(
	"signup_url",
	"login_redirect",
);

$args = array(
	"%%automatic%%",
	"%%previous%%",
);

echo s2member_pro_login_widget($options, $args);
?>

Try and see if that works better. :)

If it doesn’t then I’ll have to ask Jason for clarification on how to do this properly.

Hello Simon,

The WordPress login page is located at http://www.yourwebsite.com/wp-login.php so they would simply need to access that URL.

Most themes provide some kind of link to this page somewhere, however if your theme does not provide that then you can use s2Member’s login widget in order to have a widget that allows them to login.

You could also have your own login page, using s2Member’s login widget in a page/post through PHP, check under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Pro Login Widget (via PHP) for more info.

Hello Michael,

You can easily achieve this if you use buttons, however if you use pro-forms it will be more complicated.

If you decide to use buttons you would use a process similar to the one in this hack I shared on my website:
http://eduantech.com/2012/09/donation-button-that-gives-access/

You would simply need to change some stuff in order to match your needs.

Hello Alex,

So you’re having problems with the pro-forms correct? Are you trying to use more than one pro-form in a single page or post?

Hell Rolf,

Have you checked custom capabilities or s2Member conditionals yet?

You can learn about custom capabilities in this video, it should cover the basics and a couple of advanced things:
Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities)

As to s2Member conditionals, you can read this article to learn about them:
Knowledge Base » Simple Shortcode Conditionals

Would these help you achieve what you need?

Hello Christopher,

Basically you want to have some sort of visual indicator if a page is protected or not, correct?

I can certainly add this as a feature request if you confirm this is what you want. :)

Hello Richard,

So the error you’re getting is ERROR: Unable to verify $_SERVER[“HTTP_HOST”] correct?

If that’s so, could you please paste the shortcode you’re using for your button here? Thanks!

Hello David,

I’m afraid that while this is in the plans, it is not in the current version of s2Member. It is coming with the next generation of s2Member, which should be released some time later this year.

I’m afraid that if you want to have this feature right now you will need to have your developer implement this for you. :/

Do you have any roadmap when this release will be published?

It’s this year for sure, but we don’t have a beta for it yet. Or a date.

Honestly, I do not want to put in the effort on programming a custom connection to Amazon Payments only to find out in six weeks that a new API together with a new major release has been introduced!

Your efforts will not be wasted. It won’t be released until the later end of the year most probably.

And to be totally frank a “It´s ready when it´s ready” approach is a major PITA for a professional company. Apple gets away with it but IMHO it should be openly communicated when major releases are planned.

I agree. However with this it can’t be any other way. There’s lots of unplanned delays, like a new release of WordPress (which takes a while since he’s gotta adapt the current s2Member and the new s2Member), bug fixes, new features to current s2Member etc.

So, you can be sure beta will be released this year, and the full version as well, however we don’t have a set time for either of those, but you can expect it anywhere in the later part of the year. :)

Hello Segolene,

You first need to upgrade the free version of s2Member.

Can you confirm that the free version of s2Member is at version 130221? If you can then installing the pro version shouldn’t pose any problem at all, as long as the pro version you upload through FTP is also the same version. ;)

If it rejects your username or/and password when you try to update the pro version automatically it means that you are entering incorrect values. And installing through FTP cannot give any errors at all, since you’re taking care of business. :)

Hello Angel,

I’m afraid it’s not possible to do this. You would need to go into the database and delete the user’s record of first login most probably.

Was your site live and you had these problems? So real users can’t get that OTO anymore?
