That seemed to fix it. For the registration page, same problem – here is the code:

wp_redirect(site_url(‘/wp-login.php?action=register&redirect_to=’ . site_url())); ?>

change that to what? 

wp_redirect(site_url('/wp-login.php?action=register')); ?>

Sorry to sound a little daft, but how would I go about changing the redirect_to variable?

Hi – I’ve downloaded firefox, installed firebug and tried to perform the deletion of the code that is at fault.

Take a look at the following code – there is nothing that is being redirected to it seems.

Any suggestions?

So I would have to manually cancel the user before they upgrade/downgrade?

Thanks for the response.

So this is the case, even if they payed through paypal ERP? Because they don’t have a paypal account to access, so I am a bit worried.

I could be wrong, but you might get this error because you are submitting a lot of information that paypal doesn’t use. Have you tried temporarily removing all the form inputs you have put in, and just leaving the default S2M generated form?

By user side dashboard, do you mean the wordpress default profile section?

You can use create a page called profile, and then use the S2M shortcode under ‘General Options -> Member Profile Modifications’

[s2Member-Profile /]

A user can edit their personal information there as well. Otherwise I don’t think that it can display that information on the default wordpress profile page.

I am looking for a way to display a “Payment History” and invoices, but at the moment I think you can only display the last payment. You can use some code to show:

Previous payment gateway

S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_SUBSCR_GATEWAY

The purchase date

$s2member_last_payment_time = get_user_field ("s2member_last_payment_time"); // Last payment

The automatic EOT (if applicable)

$s2member_auto_eot_time = get_user_field ("s2member_auto_eot_time"); // EOT time (if applicable)

Their current membership label.

S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LABEL

Could you use this?

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Registration Access Links

Registration Access Link Generator ( for Customer Service )

s2Member automatically generates Registration Access Links for your Customers after checkout, and also sends them a link in a Confirmation Email. However, if you ever need to deal with a Customer Service issue that requires a new Registration Access Link to be created manually, you can use this tool for that. Alternatively, you can create their account yourself/manually by going to s2Member -> Add A Member. Either of these methods will work fine.

I got the payflow pro gateway to work. What I did was sign up for a Payflow Pro (Gateway) account. I then had to call PayPal to enable recurring payments, which they then did on my test payflow account. The details I had to put into s2member was my Merchant Login name, its password, and the vendor (I used VSA). A few things had to be changed up by the “PayPal Integration Engineer”. Eventually it worked, but this has been a major hassle. Now apparently you can just use paypal website payments standard to accept recurring payments with credit cards, without a IMA.

They told me a PayPal Pro Payflow Edition was not available and wouldn’t give it to me either. They insisted that payflow pro was the way to go. I was assigned a paypal integration assistant (who was MASSIVELY helpful), and got the s2member plugin to work correctly.

I think I understand now. It looks like when I create a PayPal sandbox test account under a US based merchant I get the Payflow API Details, but if its an Australian test account then I don’t. Looks like you need a Website Payments Pro Payflow edition, which is not available in Australia. Which is really annoying and VERY confusing. We have Website Payments Pro, but it does not include a payflow edition. Instead we can apply for a Payflow Gateway, which I believe is not the same as a Website Payments Pro Payflow Edition. If I try to use an Australian Website Payments Pro (sandbox) account and use the S2Member Pro Forms, I get an RDRP error (recurring billing is not enabled).

If I create a Payflow Pro test account, there is no “Request API credentials” or a profile link either. Neither does it belong to any PayPal Paypal Website Payments Pro account, or a standard account.

So far it looks like that a Website Payments Pro Payflow Edition IS supported by the S2Member Pro Forms, but Payflow Pro is not (please, correct me if I am wrong).

If I am correct, there isn’t a solution at all for using any of the gateways provided by S2Member to accept recurring payments with credit cards with the built in gateways…

Okay, so I called PayPal and they suggested signing up for Payflow Pro. It doesn’t seem like an actual sort of addon though, more of a seperate account.

I wanted to confirm if this is the correct plan for setting up the S2Member Pro Forms with.

It looks like it:

https://www.paypal.com/au/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_payflow-gateway-pricing-outside

Do you know if there is a way to create a sandbox account for it, so I can enter in the details in the plug in, under PayPal Options->Payflow Account Details? When I log in to my Website Payments Pro Sandbox account, there is not an option to get to get Payflow account details (Request API Credentials section). Also, if I don’t put anything in the account details field, I get an RDRP error when submitting the payment form.

PayPal is so confusing…

I saw that thread before, although this was something I wanted to avoid having to do.

We do have PayPal, but with recurring subscriptions, there is not an option to pay with a credit card without having to have a PayPal account. Which is a big set back for people who don’t have one.

Thanks for the reply
