Thank you for your reply, Christian!

I was testing as admin, but used:
[s2If current_user_is(s2member_level1) OR current_user_is(s2member_level4)]

That should mean the content is displayed for everyone being level1 OR level4 (where as admin i´m having level4)

I´m using “current user is..” because i do not want to display that content to other levels than specified here.
E.g. payment/upgrade info not needed to be displayed for higher levels..

Anyway, is there anything that could interfere with that shortcodes?
(as said; other shortcodes doing well, getting s2m constants is fine.. just that content protecting does not work)

Thank you Jason,

restriction levels used with the free signup form is now clear!

The shortcode (as outlined in pic) has register=”1″ and level=”1″. That´s why i wondered the payment symbols displayed.
But it is getting even more strange because (in the pic) both examples using the exact same shortcode (triple checked)

The paypal pro – free registration forms can´t be generated (unlike the other l1, l2,.. access forms there is only the shortcode to copy over and manually adjust the parameters.)

As the incorrect form displays only when used inside the “modal popup” plugin.. i thought of some conflicts with that particular plugin. But as everything else renders just fine.. i still have a hard time believing it only messes up the “register=1” element.

Another question on which access restriction to apply at those pages:

….
So, the outline I’m suggesting is as follows…

Level #1 will represent your free trial Members. Anyone at this Level is in their trial period. They ARE a Member, but only for a short time (1 week).
Level #2 will represent your paid Members. These are members who upgraded during their trial, or after their trial expired. They’ve now moved up to Level #2, a full Member now.
Level #0 will represent your Free Subscribers. These are people who have been demoted back down to Level #0, after having completed their trial period; and perhaps they’ve not paid for additional access yet.

Here is your Free Registration Form Shortcode that allows 1 week at Level #1.

[s2Member-Pro-PayPal-Form register="1" level="1" ccaps="" desc="Signup now, it's Free!" custom="www.example.com" tp="1" tt="W" captcha="clean" /]

Be sure to change custom=”www.example.com” to your own domain name.

You can create a Pro Form for Membership Level #2 Access here, and charge whatever you like.
Dashboard -› s2Member® -› PayPal® Pro Forms -› Membership Level # Forms
….

That would mean i can restrict member pages to level1( exactly as above shortcode implies). As they then after a week either be moved to level2 (which means they have also access to level1 content) or moved to level0 (which means they not have access to level1 content).

Or do i need to restrict pages with level2 access? (i doubt it, thinking level1 restriction being more correct)

Thank you!

Thank you Cristián,

..for your helpful reply. I knew that s2member has such a huge amount of possibilities.. but were not sure about all this API stuff etc..

Thank you!
