Thanks Cristian,

The internal page (the slowest) unfortunately is all upgrading/renew options so there’s not much I can do about that (Other then to eventually move to PayPal Pro and proforms.)

I think I will make the switch for the public (member options) page though. I went through the link you sent above, but I’m missing one thing. Using Paypal to generate the buttons (Buy Now), how can I stipulate the length of the purchase as I can with s2member. I didn’t see that in the documentation.

Thanks!

Ahh.. I see. Ran the test and all shows up to be good!

In fairness, there are quite a few buttons involved. This page http://www.nowsayit.com/learn-more can be sluggish at times, but isn’t too bad.

The page which is very slow is the my-account page which has logic to determine which renew/membership buy now buttons to display, meaning that there are 20+ buttons coded on the page (only 8-10 would display at any time based on membership level.)

I would assume that there must be some call being made to paypal based on the button shortcode? Hence, more buttons the longer it takes to load?

Hi Raam,

Apologies for not replying back sooner. I’ve done this, how do I find the results?

Thanks

Thanks Cristian!

That bit of information was definitely the missing link in my head. With the help of a “invite friends” plugin and some customization therein, I’ve been able to accomplish what I required.

Thanks again for your help!

P.S. Out of curiosity, reading through the forums I’ve noticed reference to a few features being on the road map for the next release (e.g. gift certificates). Is there any timeframe for when that release will be?

Hi Cristian,

I’m trying to determine where the code lives, or where I can hook into so that I can ensure the new field is included in the mysql_query(INSERT) statement.

Looking at the paypal-registration-form.php, the form action is referenced as %%action%%. I’m not sure what that references and haven’t had any luck finding it in documentation.

Alternatively, I could use a custom form to do this, but I would want to ensure I was creating the new member within S2Member as level 0.

Thanks,
Scott

I’m still working on this solution. I think the previous suggestion of using a custom form to send an email to the invited member with an url directed to the registration form is the best solution.

Now, the missing piece of the puzzle. Is there any way I can integrate a $_GET variable (in this case, the inviting member ID) from the url and have it added to the WP_USER table in a new column I’ve created when the registration form is submitted?

I’ve been looking at a custom pro form template, however I’m not sure how the post process works to be able to include it in the SQL Update query that must be happening somewhere downstream when the registration form is submitted.

Thanks!

Great, thanks for your suggestions! I will continue to play and see what I can do!

Hi Cristian,

I finally got around to trying out your suggestion and have run across the following conflict with my requirements:

Using the Pro-Form requires that when the current member “invites” a new member to join, that they fill in the registration form including password. What I’m looking to accomplish is that the current member fills in the first name, last name and & email, and from that an email is sent to the invitee with a activation token allowing them to register and create password, etc.

Looking at it from another angle, it is somewhat similar to how a affiliate would work? The current member provides the link to someone looking to join, and through this the new member is linked to the current member.

Any thoughts? As I mentioned, I don’t mind coding parts of this, my key requirement is the creation of a new member which is linked to the current member. (I.e. I will have a page where the current member will be able to see a list of their new member additions).

Thanks!

Hi Cristian,

Thank you for your suggestion! I haven’t had an opportunity to attempt to implement it yet, but will let you know how it goes!

Hi Eduan,

The issue was that I had it pointed through hard code elsewhere. As I had mentioned, it was a new installation of s2member and my hard code was superseeding the s2member code.

Hi Cristian,

Thank you for the information above. I am looking to do this as well, where upon login the user is directed to one of four pages based on their member level.

I’m curious as to how you would add the redirect into the Login Welcome Page settings. Does that one line input accept php or java? Or would you suggest redirecting to a processing page which contains the conditional redirect logic.

Many thanks,
Scott

Dis-regard,

I found the problem. Thanks
