Details received. Thank you!I found a couple of minor issues with your configuration that could be causing some confusion for s2Member. Having your Home Page protected is the likely cause of the redirection issues. A visit to your Home Page by a public visitor results in a redirection, which is something s2Member would not expect to encounter.
This video tutorial goes over some the gotchyas like this. I recommend watching segments #2 and #3 here. See: Video » s2Member (Content Restriction Trouble?)
Please let us know if problems persist :-) |

Thanks for your reply :-)I would contact the plugin developer and explain that it’s blocking the server itself, when one script on the server is attempting to POST data to another script. A quick review of this plugin would suggest that a SESSION cannot be established during this form of communication, and could be the underlying cause. On the other hand, I didn’t write this plugin, so it’s difficult to know for sure. It could be a simple as whitelisting the server’s IP address to prevent this from happening. It looks like you can do that from the Dashboard with this plugin. Please let us know what you find out. Thanks! |

Thanks for your inquiry. ~ We appreciate your patience :-)
Yes, the directory structure is the same, the way you link to files is same too. You can still use s2Member’s Mod Rewrite functionality if you like. If you’ve been using Custom Capabilities to protect files with sub-directories, you will simply mirror that directory structure in your S3 Bucket please. So for instance, if I have an audio file that requires the “music” Capability, I might have it here. BUCKET: /access-s2member-ccap-music/audio.mp3 You would link to that file like this (taking advantage of s2Member’s Mod Rewrite functionality).
The file is served from your S3 Bucket, but your on-site links remain the same. Of course, if you’re streaming audio/video, you can just use the new For the benefit of other readers, we’re discussing File Downloads protected by Custom Capabilities. |

Thanks for reporting this important issue.If this happens in the future, I would generate a Registration Access Link yourself from the Dashboard. Also, if you’re having a problem with emails being delivered to the SPAM folder, I would suggest that you contact your hosting company to find out if your server has been blacklisted in some way. Maybe there is something they can do for you. Another option would be this plugin (WP-Mail SMTP), which can work with an offsite mail server that can do a better job of getting mail delivered to your customer’s inbox. |

Thanks for your inquiry. ~ We appreciate your patience :-)
No, not that I’m aware of. I haven’t seen that reported by anyone. If you are using HTML code for your PayPal Buttons, you will need to regenerate your PayPal Buttons after turning Sandbox Mode off, so that URLs in your Button Code do not reference sandbox.paypal.com. It appears you’ve already done this.
If you’re running s2Member Shortcodes for your PayPal Button (recommended), then you will not need to worry about this, because turning Sandbox Mode off will automatically modify the HTML generated by s2Member’s Shortcodes.
If problems persist, please use s2Member’s Shortcodes. Please post a copy of your Shortcode for us to review with you. If we can’t resolve the issue after a review of your Shortcode, we’ll run diagnostics for you. |

Please note. s2Member® is designed to operate with all payment gateways simultaneously if that’s what you need from it. Let’s work to help you resolve the issue with ClickBank and go from there :-) Please see Bruce’s reply. Thanks! |

Thanks everyone. ~ We appreciate your patience :-)
Please see: Knowledge Base » JW Player® w/ Shortcodes
Yes I believe this could do fine as an alternative. It looks like some of you found this section in your Dashboard already.
NOTE: While we DO support just about everything else, the JW Player documentation listed here for SD/HD is currently NOT supported by s2 in a simple way. This will come in a future release. It will be nice — I agree. Until then you would need to implement your own JW Player JavaScript to get this working. That is also discussed in this article (but it’s NOT simple yet).
This is coming in the next maintenance release. It’s already documented here, but it will not work properly until you’re running s2Member® v120123+.
It’s accomplished with The next maintenance release will be available later today.
Example:
player_width="480" player_height="270" Adding an image: player_image="URL to your image" Please see: Knowledge Base » JW Player® w/ Shortcodes Screenshot from: http://www.s2member.com/kb/jwplayer-s2stream-shortcodes/#using-s2stream-shortcodes |

Thanks for the follow-up :-)Yes, definitely a possible alternative. I was hoping they might have something a little simpler, but you could always query the database for that information. The username in WordPress should match up with the username in iDevAffiliate. So you would just query the iDevAffiliate database for the affiliate’s ID number, and then generate an affiliate link based on that. Perhaps a better approach would be a custom API script integrated with iDevAffiliate. InstructionsStep #1.Create this file: /idevaffiliate/API/scripts/affiliate_url_via_username.php |

Thanks for reporting this important issue.I’m not aware of any bug in s2Member® that would cause this, but if the problem continues, please send us a Dashboard login privately and we’ll investigate it for you. See: s2Member® » Private Contact Form
NOTE: The URL that your Members are being redirected to, includes s2Member’s MOP Vars, which offers details about why the redirection occurred. The link you posted indicates that a User attempted to access Post ID 292547 which is Restricted by your configuration of s2Member® at Level #1. This person did not have access to this Membership Level.

No, I’m sorry but s2Member® Pro does not provide any additional options that would allow you to control this aspect of your configuration. However, what you’ve stated seems to indicate a problem with your installation. If any existing User/Member (including Free Subscribers) upgrades by completing checking; upon completion of checkout, s2Member® will automatically reset their File Download counter and logs, giving them a fresh start on whatever billing plan they now have. If this is not working properly on your installation, I suspect an issue with s2Member’s post-processing of each transaction. Please enable logging here and we’ll be happy to review the log files with you if assistance is needed. I can confirm this is working properly when I tested on WordPress® v3.5 and s2Member® v130121. See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› Account Details -› Logging
Are you referring to ClickBank’s Pitch-Plus feature? If so, s2Member® does NOT support this yet. We’re hoping to support this feature very soon however. See: http://www.s2member.com/pro/ under ClickBank features please. Pitch-Plus is mentioned there. Please let us know if you have any other questions/concerns :-) |

Thanks for your inquiry. ~ We appreciate your patience :-)The default timeout is based on browser session. A login cookie will last for a single browser session. So closing all tabs and your browser down completely will log you out. That ends a browser session. The default behavior also sets a maximum of 2 days on a single session. If you should NOT close your browser down for 2 days, you will still be logged-out automatically, because of this maximum time limit. If the “Remember Me” box is checked during login, you will stay logged in for 14 days. Even if you close your browser and come back later, you are still logged in. It is also possible to change the expiration times if you like. This requires a small MU plugin. Please create this directory and file:
