I switched to using the PayPal buttons directly instead. They work great and are configured according to S2Member documentation.

However, the issue now is that upon return from PayPal to the Website, it goes to the “return” page but not to the “register” page. The Return page is a grey page that just says:

[ http://www.soiltosupper.com.au ] says…
Thank you! ( you MUST check your email before proceeding ).

* Note: It can take ( up to 15 minutes ) for Email Confirmation with important details. If you don’t receive email confirmation in the next 15 minutes, please contact Support.

Includes a **Button to Rrturn to Home page**
All on grey background

From here it does not auto direct to the Registration page, and no emails are being received from S2Member from the website. The PayPal subscription notification email is received though.

Upon further investigation S2Member is not identifying a payment has been made and registering them as per the General Instructions on the main plugin page in step 3 & 4.

The Subscription Signup/Registration Process

1. Internet Users will go to your Membership Options Page ( which you’ll need to configure on the s2Member General Options panel ). On this Membership Options Page, that YOU will create in WordPress®, you’ll insert the PayPal® Subscription Buttons that were generated for you by s2Member.

2. An Internet User will click on a PayPal® Subscription Button from your Membership Options Page. They will be transferred over to PayPal® in order to agree to your Membership terms and pricing. You can customize the Checkout Page Style, Pricing, Payment Periods, and more – whenever you generate your PayPal® Buttons through s2Member.

3. Once a User has completed the Subscription Signup Process at PayPal®, they’ll be returned to your site, where they’ll be activated by s2Member instantly, and given the opportunity to register a Username & Password for their Membership. ( Note: they’ll be allowed to register a Username & Password, even if you’ve set ‘Anyone Can Register’ to `Off` in your General WordPress® options; because s2Member identifies the User as having paid for Membership access through PayPal® ).

s2Member will also send the User an email with instructions on how to register their Username & Password, just in case they missed the instructions after checkout. That email will be sent to their PayPal® email address. Much of this is handled through the PayPal® IPN service behind-the-scene, where PayPal® and s2Member communicate with each other.

4. Once a User has completed checkout and registered a Username & Password, they’ll be able to log in. The first page they’ll see after logging in, will be your Login Welcome Page ( which you’ll need to configure on the s2Member General Options panel ). Your Login Welcome Page can contain whatever you like. You’ll need to design this Page in WordPress®, and be creative!

As per above, ALL the buttons, and configurations for the plugin have been set and followed as per the S2Member knowledge base and tutorial videos. The PayPal buttons are configured according to this page http://www.s2member.com/kb/using-paypal-created-buttons/

The only issue now is the Registration and Email receiving process.
