Thank you. I was able to reproduce this issue on your installation.

Mark, please submit your details again.
We’ll need FTP access so we can run diagnostics on your installation.

Initial investigation completed, thanks for your patience.

So far I’ve been unable to determine the underlying cause of this on your installation. While I’m not aware of any bugs in this regard, I WAS able to reproduce the issue that you reported, on your installation.

Next Steps

In your recent form submission, you did not include FTP access. I’ll need you to provide us with FTP access so that we can run diagnostics, to determine the underlying cause.

Hi Robert. Thanks for your inquiry.

No, I’m terribly sorry. The documentation for s2Clean is built into your theme options panel. There were never any tutorial videos for the s2Clean theme. That being said, we’ll be more than happy to assist in any way we can. If you have questions, please post those here and we’ll help you.

Yes. Thanks for this idea. I’ll see what we can do in a future release.

Thanks for the follow-up.

I tested your code sample in our lab and it’s working properly. Have you tried this on a clean installation of WordPress, with no other plugins except s2Member, and using the default theme for WordPress?

Here are some other things that come to mind:

1. Perhaps the code is being mangled by the WordPress editor, or by your theme? Right-click on the page and choose “View Source”. Please post a copy of the resulting HTML produced by the code snippet you posted earlier. This may shed light on the issue.

2. Are you running s2Member v120301 or higher? You’ll need s2Member v120301 or newer for that code sample to work properly. s2Member v120301 introduced a bug fix related to the storage parameter. See: s2Member® Unified Changelog » v120301

Santi Azpilicueta. Forum rank/icon updated to Experienced User. Thank you!

Note. There is also a JavaScript Global that can be set once, and it will automatically disable ALL confirmations sent by s2Member (automatically). Here is an example.

Create this directory and file:
/wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-hacks.php
( these are MUST USE plugins, see: http://codex.wordpress.org/Must_Use_Plugins )

<?php
add_action("wp_head", "s2_skip_confirmation"); function s2_skip_confirmation()
	{
		echo '<script type="text/javascript">';
		echo 'var ws_plugin__s2member_skip_all_file_confirmations = true;';
		echo '</script>';
	}
?>

Thanks David. Yes, I couldn’t agree more. We’ll probably never document ALL of them in great detail (well over 1000 now), but we’d certainly like to document the most important ones. We’ll be working to improve this as we move forward this year.

As it exists now, the s2Member Codex does already include some prelimary documentation for ALL Hooks/Filters, broken down by Package Class, and with references to where each Hook/Filter is located in the source code.

Hi Allen. Thanks for reporting this important issue.

Interesting. I’m not aware of any issues with IE8/IE9. Have you tried this against a default installation of WordPress, running the default theme with only s2Member activated?

Hi there. Thanks for your inquiry.
You can protect pretty much any type of content with s2Member, and that includes URIs and/or word fragments found within URIs. s2Member’s URI Restrictions are often used in conjunction with software applications like bbPress, SimplePress, or BuddyPress. All of these social plugins offer forum functionality, and they are compatible with s2Member, yes.

See Also: bbPress (that’s what we use here at s2Member.com)

Thanks for your inquiry.

You said it’s returning a 404 error.
What URL appears in your address bar when this occurs?
Is it possible that another plugin is conflicting? Have you tried with all other plugins disabled?

Hi there. Thanks for your inquiry.

Yes, that’s certainly possible, but it requires an s2Member Hack.

Yea, so sorry about that. We’re working through this issue now, and it should be resolved soon. We’re moving away from individual Post Ratings, and instead going to all User Ratings, so that one can see the value of a specific User collectively.

Sorry, not a Pre-Sale question. Moving this to our Community Forums
so you’ll have a chance to receive assistance from others.

I’d start by taking a look at your s2Member log files for PayPal.

Hi there. Thanks for your inquiry Mike.

I’m so sorry, we do NOT currently support Administrative Users within WordPress. s2Member is designed for end-users of a site, and not for Users/Members that actually gain access to your Dashboard in some way. This could certainly be accomplished, using s2Member as a framework on which to build such a site, but it’s not something that s2Member provides by default. Here are some links that might help in your work to integrate this.

Thanks for the heads up on this thread.

Well, sending passwords via email is an standard practice on the web. A transactional email is sent to each new registrant, so they have it on file, in case they forget. However, if you’d rather not do that (and I do understand your point), you can simply remove that line from the email that is sent to new registrants. You’ll find that email here: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Email Configuration

Hi Gail. Thanks for your inquiry.

ONE TIME fee of $30 and then they pay either a Quarterly $30 recurring fee

This can be accomplished easily with the s2Member Button and/or Pro Form Generators.

(click screenshots to enlarge please)

or they have the option of paying a one time recurring annual fee of $120.

There is also a need to prorate all full months to the nearest Quarter, each quarter starts on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1.

This gets a little trickier, but it’s possible.

Instructions:

Install the Exec-PHP plugin for WordPress, and then do something like this.

<?php
$now = strtotime("now");
$recurring_start_time = strtotime("01 January 2013");
$days_until_recurring_charges_begin = round(($recurring_start_time - $now) / ($seconds_in_one_day = 86400));
?>
# Now configure your Shortcode with Trial Days that last until recurring billing should begin.
# The Shortcode here has been abbreviated for clarity in this regard.
[s2Member-Pro-PayPal-Form ... tp="<?php echo $days_until_recurring_charges_begin; ?>" tt="D" /]

Hi there. Thanks for your inquiry.

Did you generate the Payment Button as a “Subscription” button, or as a “Buy Now” button? If it’s a “Subscription” button, even if it’s only for one payment, the EOT is not determined until the “Subscription” ends, and s2Member receives an IPN from PayPal. If it’s a “Buy Now” button, the EOT is determined by s2Member during purchase (i.e immediately), and added to the account during checkout.

If problems continue, please post a copy of your PayPal Button Shortcode. Thanks!

Hi there. Just thought I would share my observations here in this topic.

1. You’re running BuddyPress. The navigation bar at the top is controlled by BuddyPress, so options appearing in that menu will not be hidden by s2Member. However, upon clicking any of those menu items, if the section of your site that it links to, IS protected by s2Member (i.e. unavailable to the current user), a redirection to the Membership Options Page configured for s2Member should occur (e.g. it’s NOT available to the current user).

2. Let’s see a screenshot of your URI Restriction Options, which are what’s normally used to protect these areas of BuddyPress. In your URI Restriction Options for s2Member, you should have something like this:

/members/
/groups/
/blogs/
/activity/
/messages/
/profile/
/friends/
/settings/

If those are not working for you (i.e your Permalink settings don’t include a trailing slash, like they should), then you can try these instead please.

/members
/groups
/blogs
/activity
/messages
/profile
/friends
/settings

Hi Mike. Thanks for the feedback.
~ This is actually something that’s been possible in s2Member for quite awhile, but it’s not been available in the UI. The maintenance release coming tomorrow was already set to include this functionality, so please keep an eye out for the release tomorrow. Thanks!

Jason Hart forum rank/icon upgraded to Experienced User.

I believe you’re looking for this Filter:
ws_plugin__s2member_check_register_access

<?php
add_filter("ws_plugin__s2member_check_register_access", "my_function");
function my_function($users_can_register)
	{
		if($something_allows_a_user_to_register)
			return /* Yes, they can register. */ "1";
			
		else /* Whatever s2Member says already. */
			return $users_can_register;
	}
?>

Hi Dan. Thanks for your inquiry.

Yes, absolutely. Both the free and paid versions support this. With s2Member Pro, a Free Registration Form is also made possible, allowing a more seamless integration, so you might consider that. Here’s a video tutorial that covers some of the more advanced aspects of Free Registration Forms that come with s2Member Pro.

Video » s2Member (Free Registration On Multiple Levels?)
Video » s2Member Pro (Free Registration w/ Trial Offer)

And, it’s always possible to create, edit, promote, and/or demote Users manually from within your Dashboard, without any payment gateway integration having ever taken place. That’s totally optional.
