Jim,

Have you double-checked your IPN and PDT integration settings?

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› PayPal® IPN Integration
Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Options -› PayPal® PDT Integration

Have you made sure that you’re fully logged out of s2Member when conducting the test purchase? You should logout of WordPress and clear your browser cache/cookies before testing to make sure that s2Member doesn’t get confused about who’s making the purchase.

Kirk,

This problem is likely related to the way you edited the roles using the User Role Editor plugin. You may need to start with a fresh WordPress installation to restore the roles you modified. Manually modifying the role capabilities is not recommended by s2Member as it may cause s2Member to behave in unexpected ways. If you give an s2Member Level role a capability that s2Member has not allowed by default, then the s2Member user may suddenly be able to access the admin panel.

Hi Lan,

As Philly suggested, I would check to make sure your Login Welcome Page Special URL field doesn’t contain anything (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Login Welcome Page -> Or, you may configure a Special Redirection URL (text field at the bottom of this section)).

Hi Kevin,

We do not have a sample theme. Very little of the plugin has anything to do with the WordPress theme itself, as most of the functionality happens on the backend. Are there specific things you’re looking to see? Perhaps I can point you in the right direction.

The easiest way to get a feel for the plugin is to watch a few of the tutorial videos.

Hi Kevin,

s2Member uses the WordPress user base and authentication system. The most simple way to achieve what you’re asking would be to allow the user to signup normally and then on the Login Welcome Page (the first page the user sees after logging in), provide the “Authorize your Twitter account” function. You could even get a little advanced and use some PHP to check if the user has authorized their account yet and only show the function if they have not.

Hi Kevin,

If you need help understanding Custom Capabilities, this video is the place to start. The Content Dripping feature (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Content Dripping) utilizes the s2Member Conditionals (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Simple/Shortcode Conditionals and Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› Advanced PHP Conditionals).

When you set up your conditionals, you check for things like “if user has been registered for 30 days”. Cristian is suggesting that you update that to something like “if user has been registered for 30 days OR user has ccap ‘showmenow'”.

Here are two code examples that show these two variations:

<?php if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS >= 30){ ?>
    Drip content to Members that started paying you at least 30 days ago.
<?php } ?>

<?php if(S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS >= 30 || current_user_can(access_s2member_ccap_showmenow)){ ?>
    Drip content to Members that started paying you at least 30 days ago OR who have the 'showmenow' Custom Capability.
<?php } ?>

Hi Nigel,

As David mentioned, the Membership Options Page is handled dynamically by s2Member, for various reasons. You don’t need to worry about Google having issues with that page.

Hi Nigel,

Thank you for the feature request. I can see how that would be helpful. We will take this into consideration for a future version of s2Member.

Yes, that makes sense. Thank you for sharing, Nigel.

Thank you for sharing your solution, Jeroen! Glad to hear you got it working. :)

Ryan,

Are you getting these messages from s2Member or from CCBill? It’s unclear to me what you’re referring to.

Hi Boudewijn,

If you want to accept credit cards on your site (e.g., not use PayPal), then you will need to sign up for the PayPal Pro service. With PayPal Pro, your customers can pay with a credit card on your site and never see PayPal. Please see the video below for more information:

Gary,

s2Member currently uses the WordPress database, the WordPress user base, and the WordPress authentication system; there is no separate s2Member database. s2Member is a WordPress plugin that makes heavy use of the tight integration between the plugin and WordPress.
