Hi Rebecca,

I suspect the problem is as Cristian suggested: somehow users are getting to your page using the non-www URL:

https://downloadandprint.com/signup/?s2-ssl=yes

If you visit that page, you’ll see the red box that displays the warning that your customers described.

Can you ask the customers who reported this how they arrived at that page (e.g., where they clicked on the link)?

Hi James,

Your shortcode looks correct. Could you please try generating a 2-hour access link manually for the same page (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Specific Post/Page Access Links) and then test to see if that expires after 2 hours?

Hi Daniel,

When you created the Custom Registration Fields (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields), there’s an option to define which membership levels those fields are applicable to. By default, they’re set to apply to all levels. You should modify those fields so they only apply to the level you’re using for professionals. That way, those fields won’t show up on your free registration forms.

Hi Simon,

As per our support policy, we cannot assist with custom coding or integrating with 3rd party plugins (please see s2Member® » Support Policy » Outside Scope).

Hi Angela,

Assisting with custom features is outside the scope of our support policy (see s2Member® » Support Policy » Outside Scope).

I have not come across any requests for a similar integration that I can point you to, however it sounds like your method may work. I also don’t know of any current plans to integrate with an SMS gateway, but that may change at some point.

Regarding the account balance feature: Your feature request has been noted. Thank you!

Hi Brad,

Yes, you could use the s2Member Buy Now functionality (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Buttons -› Specific Post/Page (Buy Now) Buttons, or with s2Member Pro: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Specific Post/Page (Buy Now) Forms) to create a form that allows the user to checkout with s2Member. The Buy Now purchases do not create any WordPress account.

You could then use the s2Member Payment Notifications (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Notifications -› Payment Notifications) feature to notify a separate script that creates the user on your web app (or you could just do it manually).

If you require a recurring subscription, then s2Member will require that the subscription be attached to a WordPress account for the user to handle notifications regarding payment, cancelations, etc.

Hi Ian,

A business directory is not a feature of s2Member. If you need help implementing a custom solution, we recommend posting a job on jobs.wordpress.net. As per our support policy, we are unable to assist with any custom coding.

You may want to post in the Community Forum to see if anyone else in the s2Member community has found a 3rd party plugin that does what you want. I personally haven’t found any.

Hi Becky,

I believe you can change that using the method described here:

However, if “Last Name” is something added by WordPress itself (which it may be, now that I think of it), then you’ll need to figure out where in the WordPress core you can modify that text (you might want to head over to the WordPress.org Support Forums and ask there).

Hi Joe,

The code above only registers the custom fields and adds data to them; it doesn’t display the custom fields on the front-end, so you’d definitely need to use different code for that.

Hello,

You can create two separate Pro-Forms, one free form for Community Members (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Free Registration Forms) and another that requires payment for Professionals (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Membership Level # Forms).

You can then place each generated form on a separate WordPress page, one for free users and one for professionals. Then you’ll need to direct visitors to the correct page from your site.

We actually recommend the method of signing up first and then making a payment (the default process when using Pro-Forms). When someone signs up with a non-free form, s2Member will only give their account the necessary level access once it has received an IPN message from the payment gateway informing s2Member of a successful payment for that account.

Thank you for the info, Nigel. We’ll make note of that plugin incompatibility.

Hi Simon,

s2Member stores its custom registration fields (Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Registration/Profile Fields) in its own way in the database, so simply “adding” to those isn’t going to be straight-forward.

However, if you simply want to display your custom fields alongside the front-end s2Member profile fields (i.e. when using the s2Member-Profile shortcode), then you may want to look at s2member/includes/classes/profile-in.inc.php.
