I am having the same issue and am in the process of figuring it out..

Correct, that is what I meant.

The user is not presented with an error message and would not know that their email address was not updated due to the duplicate.

You’d need to use wordpress multisite installations and they would have to be on the same host for it to all work smooth.

…It’s possible with separate hosts, but is extremely complicated, requiring the ability of an advanced PHP coder utilizing multiple hooks and off-site HTTP calls.

Mike,

If you don’t know how to code PHP pretty well, then you’ll need to get the pro version and use the pro-forms. Here’s a desc. of it: http://www.s2member.com/kb/s2member-pro-forms/

The only thing you can’t set automatically is the username. The password will be emailed to them if you choose to do so via the settings at:

S2member => Registration/Profile fields and options => Allow Custom Passwords during Registration?

However, if you know PHP coding, then you can do anything you want after doing a few source mods.

Stephen,

You should also note that anytime this plugin is “updated”, that your modifications will be erased and will need to be done again. So, remember these changes in case you have to do it again in the future.

Stephen,

The registration page is supposed to be protected by s2Member. If you have open registration turned off, then when someone goes to the registration page it is SUPPOSED to catch it and cause it to redirect.

Make sure open registration is turned OFF in S2Member settings, then check if it is redirecting. If it still is not redirecting, then it means s2member is not catching it. In which case, we’ll have to do a little more modding to the code to get your desired effect.

Stephen,

I looked through the code of the widget and it has:

// Output other links
$links = '';	
if ( get_option('users_can_register') && get_option('sidebarlogin_register_link') == '1' ) { 

	if ( ! is_multisite() ) {
	
		$links .= '<li><a href="' . apply_filters( 'sidebar_login_register_url', site_url('wp-login.php?action=register', 'login') ) . '">' . $theregister . '</a></li>';

	} else {
		
		$links .= '<li><a href="' . apply_filters( 'sidebar_login_register_url', site_url('wp-signup.php', 'login') ) . '">' . $theregister . '</a></li>';

	}
}

The first line in that section checks if users have permission to register, that’s why the register link is disappearing. Try changing the below portion of the above section of code:

if ( get_option('users_can_register') && get_option('sidebarlogin_register_link') == '1' ) { 

to:

if ( get_option('sidebarlogin_register_link') == '1' ) { 

This should remove the check and allow the register links to appear even with open registration off. Let me know how it works.

Mike,

This is pretty easy, however, it’s not done using the s2Member system. PayPal buttons are generated based on passed HTML variables.

I don’t know if you can try to add these vars to the s2Member generated shortcode version (haven’t tried it..). Though, I know it WILL work if you use the HTML version of the button code from s2Members button generator. Of course, this means the button is not encrypted, so you’ll have to turn off required button encryption in your paypal settings.

So, use the s2m button generator and then add this code to the bottom of it right ABOVE the

</form>

line:

<input type="hidden" name="on1" value="Size">Size<select name="os1"> 
  <option value="Small">Small</option>
  <option value="Large">Large</option>
</select>

You can create as many option values as needed to add more sizes. This creates a required option that does not change the price, but you’ll see it when your paypal orders are processed.

Mike,

Keep in mind, that the purpose of your form is LEAD CAPTURE, so you want to verify the email address is real. If they provide a bogus email, then it makes sense that you don’t provide the video.

I would change your custom form to also require first/last name and change your s2m settings so that the user does not enter a password upon signup (it will create a temp password). Next, modify the registration email to include the link to the second video and lastly, modify the registration return page to instruct the user that the link to the 2nd video has been emailed to them.

The result is that you have their firstName,lastName, and email address in your database and they get an email with the 2nd link, their username and a temp password for the site. They’ll need the password if they choose to come back to your site and signup as a paid member.

Easy:

s2Member Options -> General -> Registration/Profile Fields Options

• Collect First/Last Names during Registration? –> set to NO
• Just above that go to: “Custom Registration/Profile Fields” and create a new Lastname and ID field and adjust the field type for each to set the allowed input.

Now, my only question is: Do they know what their ID# is or are you manually doing registrations?
