That would cause a conflict between s2Member and WordPress Jermaine, so I suggest you don’t do that Charles.

What I can suggest though, is that you make a homepage page, and put the same content that the membership options page has, there.

Well you can alter your theme’s section that controls the menu, you can put different menus depending on the amount of time the user has been registered.

Hello Peter,

You’re right in that behaviour, however, you can configure this if I’m not mistaken, with MOP vars. Which give the membership options page info on why the user was sent there, and you can configure it accordingly.

You can check out MOP vars here: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Membership Options Page Variables (MOP Vars)

Hope this helps. :)

Hello JB,

You can use your current single site license in your development environment, the single site license only applies to live websites.

Hope this helps. :)

Oh OK, I was gonna suggest that you use a different return URL in your shortcode, depending on the conditional logic that you want.

But if you’re not using s2Member’s buttons, I can’t really help you.

Hello Guillaume,

You can use s2Member’s content dripping features for this, you can find it under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Content Dripping.

Here’s an article about them: Knowledge Base » Introduction to Content Dripping in s2Member®

Hope this helps. :)

Not sure, haven’t had much experience with downloads I’m afraid. :/

One thing you could do is visit this article and see if it helps:

Hello James,

I suppose you’re using the success attribute correct? If so, how do you plan to divide the URLs?

By what the user bought, or what? What will decide different URLs?

I might be able to help if you answer. ;)

Hello Vale,

This is currently not possible with s2Member, unless you let them register for free first, and then offer them to upgrade to a paid member.

You will be interested in using s2Member’s conditionals for this, check this article about them: Knowledge Base » s2Member® Conditionals

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Manuele,

Like Lorita said,

This will require lots of custom customizations, since s2Member doesn’t already come with this.

You might be interested in using custom capabilities and conditionals for this kind of functionality BTW. Here are some videos and articles about them:
Video » s2Member (Custom Capabilities)
Knowledge Base » s2Member® Conditionals

You can find them under:
Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Custom Capabilities
Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals

Hope this helps. :)

Hello John,

Glad you could solve your problem. :)

Just for future reference, the process for upgrading is upgrading the free version automatically with WordPress. And for the pro version simply go in to your s2Member dashboard and you should see a notice telling you to enter your s2Member.com credentials in order for s2Member to upgrade automatically, or you can upgrade manually.

Just one thing though… I want to be able to verify my users and approve them before sending them a password… I don’t want just anyone to be able to register!

I’m afraid currently the only steps you can take to do something similar to this is the following:
You can let users register at level 0, for free, they get their password.
And if you approve of the user you can upgrade them to level 1, which is at the level which everything will be protected, instead of level 0.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Paul,

Could you please follow these common steps for troubleshooting: Knowledge Base » Common Troubleshooting Tips

Also, I believe this problem is caused by the custom attribute in your shortcode if I remember right. Make sure it follows the rules of how it should be. :)

You can if you want, share your full shortcode and your website URL and I can check if something jumps at me.

Hope this helps. :)

Well you can find an explanation of do_shortcode in the WordPress codex:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode

And you can find an explanation of the ra attribute under s2Member’s documentation, which you can find here:
Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Shortcode Attributes (Explained) -› ra

Hope this helps. :)

Well, the membership options page is for those pages that you want to be protected at level 0, if the user wants to access one of those pages the membership options page will tell the user to register first.

At this point you would simply put a link to the registration page explaining what they gain by registering, or simply put a JavaScript redirect to the registration page.

The login welcome page is what users see once they login, right after they login, this is the page that they will see. You can configure this to redirect to a URL (any URL, including your homepage) or a page within WordPress, which can’t be your homepage in order to not cause problems with WordPress.

WordPress already blocks the users that are not admins from accessing your wp-admin, so you don’t have to worry about that. :)

Hope this helps. :)

Well, the do_shortcode part is what evaluates every shortcode that you use in WordPress. Here I am using it in order to be able to get a button from that shortcode, and you change the output attribute in order for it to give you an URL, and let the hack redirect the user to the correct PayPal URL.

Regarding the ra attribute, to put it simply, adding that to the ra attribute is what allows this button to know how much the user wants to pay. It’s what says how much the user will pay from his PayPal account, and so I made it change depending on what the user chooses to pay.

Does this make it a little bit clearer?

Hello Isabelle,

It isn’t necessary to have PayPal, see here, if you’re talking about pro-forms: Pre Sale FAQs » To use s2Member® Pro Forms, will I have to use PayPal® Pro?

If you’re talking about the free version of s2Member, then you don’t require PayPal, if you want to offer free access you don’t require PayPal. Level 0 is free users BTW, they don’t pay, and they register under http://www.yourwebsite.com/wp-login.php?action=register

Does this answer your question?
