Hello Kurt,

I believe Jason has posted in the past a hack to also check the fields with PHP… However I can’t remember where or when.

You’ll have to search for it, here’s a start:

So, all your users will be authors? And you want to know what level authors they are?

Hello Jason,

Here are my answers to the questions I can answer:

2. Can you provide me with a list of URL’s running the plugin, so that I can see some established membership sites in action?

4. Do you know if there are currently any issues running S2member on a hostgator shared hosting package?

Cassel and I already answered this in your other topic.

1. What are the system requirements/dependencies of S2member pro?

Not sure myself. However, the best way to find out is to run this server script and see how it turns out. It runs lots of tests and tells you what to fix so that s2Member and WordPress are in their best conditions.

5. Are you aware of any members who have successfully switched from http://wp-member.com/ to S2member and were able to maintain the IPN functionality for preexisting members? I cannot seem to locate anything in the current user_meta with wp-member that I can identify as the proper value to import for Paid Subscr ID (unless this refers to the standard wordpress user id, but I have no way to confirm that is what the former plugin used with IPN). The current site has hundreds of active memberships, so being able to achieve this would take a huge load off our minds.

6. If we do need to use the EOT method described here http://www.s2member.com/kb/importing-existing-subscriptions/ can the system be configured to notify the user that they will need to cancel their old PayPal subscription and start a new one? If not, what is the recommended method for handling this?

I can’t answer these two I’m afraid. :/

Hello Claude,

You mean, you want to remove the password field from the profile shortcode s2Member provides? Or from the WordPress profile editing page?

Hello Alex,

For that you can do 2 things. Either buy the pro version and use pro-forms.

Or simply have them register for free first, and then make them pay for access. :)

Hello Jason,

I don’t have the answer to all your questions, but I’ll answer what I can. :)

1.) has anyone installed the plugin on a hostgator shared server? If so, was it a smooth process? Did you need hostgator to do anything special to make it work.

Yes, not sure if it was shared or not. But I have installed it in a HostGator server before, with no real problems.

2.) Does anyone mind sharing a URL to a site or two you are using S2member with? He would like to subscribe to a few sites and get a feeling for what the user experience is like.

I can’t provide much help with this. However, as you can imagine, s2member.com uses s2Member. So you can get a feel for the registration process already. You already registered for free. When you’re ready to buy the pro version you will know how pro-forms feel. :)

Dave, this is not really a plugin, this is a hack of sorts. And he has provided the code, so there’s nothing to upload. :)

If you want to use this hack you’ll have to study code until you can understand what this hack does, so that you’re able to edit it to your specific needs.

Hello Mauro,

With the free version your users would login in the login page, which can be found under http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-login.php, replacing yourdomain with your domain of course. :)

I’m afraid there is no way to just resend emails, there should be though, I’ll talk with Jason to see what his opinion is.

…I contacted Jason, let’s see what he has to say. :)

Hello Andrew,

Regarding Gifts: We need to track if a member has been sent a gift like a t-shirt. Does it have the ability to track things like t-shirts and other physical gifts sent to members?

I’m afraid not. s2Member was made for digital content ONLY, for physical content you need to modify s2Member to track the extra stuff you need for physical content. :/

Backend: I saw a post saying s2Member does not add any DB tables but may in future versions. I don’t see any in the Framework version (correct me if I’m wrong) but was wondering if the Pro adds any DB tables at this time.

At this moment, no. s2Member does not yet add DB tables, not even the pro version. The next generation of s2Member will though (which will come out someday this year).

Closing this as a duplicate, and will move your other post to this forum.

Hello there,

I’m afraid not. s2Member does not have this functionality. And probably never will. :/

If you want to have this functionality you’ll have to create a plugin for this, or a hack. Modifying s2Member won’t do you much good. :)

Hello Larry,

Could you try these common trouble shooting tips:
Knowledge Base » Common Troubleshooting Tips

If none of these fix it, could you please re-enter your PayPal details, and make sure they’re correct. If you’re not sure, you can check this video: Video » s2Member (PayPal® Options/Buttons)

You can find logs under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Log Files (Debug).

However there’s no logs for this, except the ones about HTTP connections or something (maybe), which you need to enable the logging for that under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Log Files (Debug) -› Logging Configuration.

Ah I see. That problem is usually caused by the URL minimizing service.

Could you please change the URL minimizing service you use under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› URL Shortening Service.

The minimizing service is things like goo.gl or bit.ly etc. :)

Ah, at that point I’m afraid it’s not possible.

You can prevent the downloading, in order for them to pay before being able to open/download the PDF file.

However if you want to embed it into your website then it’s not possible, because, once again, you can’t restrict them from printing something online, unless the browser or some other software prevents it.

You will need to offer the PDFs for download (paid download), and in exchange, in order to not allow them to print the files, you will need to block it somehow with Adobe or whatever you use.

Yes, you can protect downloads. Check this video for a lot (not all of it though) of info on this:
Video » s2Member® File Downloads (Complete Series)

I can’t provide any help on preventing users from printing the PDF files, so that’s up to you. :)

I’m afraid at this point s2Member can’t achieve this.

You would have to modify s2Member in order to achieve this effect, I’m afraid. :/

Hello Eva,

Just setup your testing site correctly and install s2Member and s2Member pro on it. :)

Even if you have the single site license, you can install s2Member pro on any amount of test websites, since the single site is a live site. :)
