My client badly needs this functionality, so I will follow up your suggestion above of getting a free-lance developer to quote on this if you guys aren’t interested.

I’m thinking it would be so great to have a page in the s2member admin where allowed IPs, ranges of IPs and IPs with wildcards could be entered.

If they could be labeled by institution as well, to make updating simple, that would be fantastic.

And if Quick Cache could be then instructed to ignore those IPs all would be perfect.

Thanks for your quick response Bruce.

Your suggestion confirms that this particular customization is beyond my abilities.

If you guys offered this functionality as an add-on module or even a stand-alone plugin I’m sure many users would pay extra for it.

YES! It works now!

Thank you very much for your help Bruce.

It would be useful to others if you could update my original thread.

OK Raam, I’ve found the problem – when I turn off the Quick Cache plugin I am automatically logged in as “corporate” (using the id in the script).

Unfortunately Quick Cache does not seem to have an option for configuring No-cache remote-address patterns.

But even if I proceed without a cache I’m no further ahead – even though “corporate” is a s2Member Level #2 there is still no access to protected content – I am referred to the “Membership Options” page when I try.

I also note there is no admin bar when logged in this way, and if I try to access wp-admin I am asked for a password.

The login page has a message:
“ERROR: The username field is empty.”
but actually the Username field has “corporate” pre-filled.

FYI this login also does not by-pass the Maintenance Mode plugin (not an issue for me).

Any further suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Raam

The complete line from the code that I tried at first was:

$id = 82; # The ID of the user you wish to log the visitor in as / Could also be User's Login

so you can see why I next tried the login: ‘corporate’.

The traffic tracking service verifies that my reported IP is correct.

Thank you for this Jason. I actually figured out a similar solution on my own, and came back here to document it:

<?php if (current_user_can("access_s2member_level2")){ ?>
		<script type="text/javascript">
			var ws_plugin__s2member_skip_all_file_confirmations = true;
		</script>
<?php } ?>

Hi Raam

My s2-hacks.php file with the code above does not stop the pop-up.

However I have followed the advice in a post by Jason and this does indeed disable all JavaScript confirmations.

<script type="text/javascript">
	var ws_plugin__s2member_skip_all_file_confirmations = true;
</script>

If anyone finds a way of stopping or altering this single, redundant message without loosing the entire file-counting feature, I’d be much appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I’ve uploaded a plugin here: /wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-contextual-translation.php
with this code:

<?php
add_filter("gettext_with_context", "s2_contextual_translation", 10, 3);
function s2_contextual_translation($translation = NULL, $original = NULL, $context = NULL)
	{
		if($context === "s2member-front" && $original === "( so, no worries )")
			$translation = "";
		return $translation;
	}
?>

but the message is still there in the javascript prompt.
