Hello Darryl, What update are you talking about? s2members last update was 2 months ago unless I’m missing one. Are you sure your not getting s2member mixed up with another plugin? As those login and registration forms are not being added by s2, but are being added by another membership plugin you have installed. |

Hi Michaela, If you use s2members pro forms for registration then yes they will not allow special characters. If your using wordpress’s registration (wp-login.php?action=register), which I presume you are, then there is no easy way to disallow special characters, you may be able to find a plugin that does it, or you”ll need to do some custom coding. If you get someone to do some custom coding there is a built in wordpress feature that sanitizes usernames that you should be able to hook into so that would be the place to start

Hi Ralph, The setting you need to change is located wordpress -> dashboard -> s2member -> restriction options -> Alternative View Protection |

It looks like a permalink problem possibly caused by a bad plugin not flushing the rewrite rules. As a test can you disable all plugins then reset your permalinks. WordPress => dashboard => settings => permalinks choose default then save(must save), then go back to what your had then save again. Then see if its works, If it does you can then reactivate plugins one by one until it breaks. |

No it doesn’t. When you navigate here http://digitaltrackandfield.com/?page_id=4942 It works? Its redirecting me to the membership options pages correctly saying I need level 1 access, so looks like its working from my end. |

What is the id of /academy-page/ in the following format http://digitaltrackandfield.com/?page_id=1234 you can find the id by hovering over the link to the post/page within the all posts/all pages screen, it will appear in the bottom left of your browser like /wp-admin/post.php?post=1234&action=edit |

Hi Scott, Are you caching 404 errors with total cache? If not can you again set permalinks to default then save. Then go to the post editor and click view post on the post thats giving the 404 error and report back on whats happens Thanks |

I’m not sure I would agree with the approach outlined here, s2members js file contains important variables that you may want loaded before the page starts to render in the same way you would always put a script like modernzer in the head. There is definitely much improvement to be had here though and I know they’re working to improve this, I personally hope that the new s2member will serve any js minified and gziped. |

Hi Jon, Where have you been trying to get help?
Do you mean on paypals website or yours? Anyway I noticed you don’t have a SSL certificate so you can’t take payment info on your site until you do. (I think wp-engine are good at assisting you in setting one up) |

Hi Scott, Can you try reseting your permalinks. WordPress => dashboard => settings => permalinks choose default then save, then go back to what your had then save again. see if that does the trick, sometimes plugins mess with them and don’t flush the rewrite rules. |

Hi Luis, Off the top of my head I wonder if something like this would work? I’m not sure how the sharing works though but if this was in you doc head I wonder if it would work for facebook.

I think i would use shortcodes and do this
the other options are to create a meta redirect but that has a 1 second delay so is not smooth, or to have different pages for the different levels hope that helps

Hi Cassel, You can do it from reg or first transaction. One limitation is that its only from first transaction, so for example if a user was a member for 1 month then cancelled and joined again in six months time their paid registration stamp would say 7 months. I had to write a little script that resets their time stamp if they cancel.

Hi Michael, How comes you can’t change the permissions? Who is your site hosted with? What sort of access do you have to your server? Thanks |

Hello Lisa, Page ID 547 is your login welcome page. So when anybody logins in thats the page they are taken too, this is both normal and expected behaviour. That page is protected from the public and non-members. Subscribers are still members, level 0 members albeit not paying ones. What is it that your trying to achieve? What would you like to happen to those members? There are a couple of options here the first is you can create a separate login welcome page for subscribers/level-0 that they are redirected to upon login or you can use conditional shortcodes to display and hide whatever messages/content you have in your welcome page. Let me know if you need me to explain how to do those :) |

Yes you just need to download a ‘skin’ http://www.longtailvideo.com/addons/skins Then in shorcode
Well I guess the best way would be to have one playlist for free and use downloadkey=”true” if the free videos are stored in a protected bucket. And then have a second playlist with free and paid videos in it, but just omit the downloadkey=”” part altogether. That way anyone can see the free stuff, but only members can view the premium stuff. Just remember to put the premium playlist in an area of your website that can only be accessed if you’ve paid or users will get confused. |

Hi Susan, The scroll bar is there its just not visible because your player is set to width=”980″ but your page content area is 965. If you set download key to true on it will grant access to all files in the list and you cant override that on an individual basis. What is it your trying to achieve? |

Hi Susan, When you download the player files from longtail you have to ‘uncheck’ a tick box about the sharing bit, for some reason they started adding by default. What do you mean when you say the requirement for membership? Do you mean protecting the video from non-members? If so just omit the downloadkey=”true”. Thanks, |

Hello Susan, s2Member needs to generate signed urls for videos links in order for it to work with cloudfront and for cloudfront to grant access to the file. When using the JW plugin the signed urls don’t get created so it won’t work. That plugin only works if using only the s3 configured because the signed url is not required. I have created a plugin for use in conjunction with s3 and cloudfront, you can find the latest version here there are no reported problems. Let me know if you need any help :) |
