If I remember right S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LABEL doesn’t output the level, but rather the label for that level, for example “Silver” for level 1, “Peasant” for level 0 etc. Of course configurable under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Membership Levels/Labels.

<?php if (S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL === 4){ ?>
    A Member has an Access Level of 4.
<?php } else if (S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL === 3){ ?>
    A Member has an Access Level of 3.
<?php } else if (S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL === 2){ ?>
    A Member has an Access Level of 2.
<?php } else if (S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL === 1){ ?>
    A Member has an Access Level of 1.
<?php } else if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL === 0){ ?>
    A User is logged in as a Free Subscriber.
<?php } else if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL === -1){ ?>
    A User is not logged in at all.
<?php } ?>

And again, if I remember right this outputs the current user’s level, so all you have to do is output S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LEVEL and you don’t need to do all this PHP voodoo to output the current level. :)

If I change my status from example. Level 1 to Level 3 it will show that all members I’m looking at is Level 3

That is a genuine concern.

You will need to do some code that works while BuddyPress is getting its info so that you know what user the code should look for. Then you’ll just need to check the user’s role and output it or something similar.

I don’t have experience with this so I’m just giving out ideas. May not work exactly like I say. :)

OK what happens if you only have s2Member installed and you set up a login welcome page (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Login Welcome Page).

Without fail they should be redirected there unless some other plugin/hack is doing something else.

If there’s anything on the login welcome page you don’t want the users to see you can just edit the page to not show whatever you don’t want the users to see. :)

Hello Leo,

That’s certainly some random behavior. Although it does seem to depend on some stuff like location perhaps…

Hello Lauren,

So the problem you’re having is that instead of a date and/or time they get a single dash. Is that correct?

If so could you please try these common trouble shooting tips: Knowledge Base » Common Troubleshooting Tips

Especially the server check. :)

Hello Kiven,

This isn’t possible by default with s2Member. But you should be able to brew a hack that accomplishes just that.

Perhaps an MU plugin that checks when a registration happens (with a hook or something similar). And when that does happen it checks the custom field’s value, and automatically assigns the correct role.

Hello Alex,

So you want to have a thank you page which has advertisements in it, correct?

And the advertisements will be advertisements you add depending on who paid right? Or do you want these to be added automatically when a user pays for it?

Glad the problem was easily fixed. :)

He got back to me with confirmation that this is not gonna be in s2Member yet.

It is gonna be fixed in the next generation of s2Member but not for now.

I’ll bring this post to Jason’s attention so that he can review this again. :)

Hello Tony,

No s2Member can’t currently do this. And I don’t think it’s in the plans. I’ll mention it to Jason nonetheless. :)

Excellent! Glad I was able to help. :)

OK so the problem at hand is that even if you’re an admin user s2Member is redirecting you to the membership options page, correct?

If that’s the case then I can’t think of anything else besides a conflict somewhere or the account not actually being an admin… The fact that you can access the login welcome page is another thing pointing to that possibility.

Could you make 100% sure that the account you’re using is actually an account with the admin role assigned?

Hello Randall,

Well the most simple way there is is to simply create the user account yourself and then give the user the account details so that he can login.

If you can’t do that then the next thing there is is to protect a page with specific post/page access restrictions (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Specific Post/Page Access Restrictions) then put a free registration pro-form that offers paid levels in that page.

And then when you need to give the user free access just generate an access link (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Specific Post/Page Access Links) and give it to him.

Does that answer your question?
