In your WP Dashboard, please have a look at: Quick Cache -> Options -> Dynamic Pruning. There were some new options added in recent versions of Quick Cache. You should be able to find a combination that helps you with this situation.

Please report back if you can.

Thanks for reporting this important issue.
~ We’ll have a look to see why this was possible.

In the mean time, I would try re-installing on the main blog. Please report back if you can. Thanks!

Gotchya. Thanks for the suggestion.
~ You can look for this in a future release.

s2Member 3.1.2+ now includes a bbPress Bridge plugin. It can be installed automatically. Inside your WP Dashboard, navigate to:
s2Member -> API Bridges -> bbPress

Note, the other wp-show-ids/images/promos/ are packaged together for promotionals on this plugin @ PriMoThemes.com. You can remove them if you like, or leave them. They won’t hurt anything being there.

Ha.. Yea, I agree.
Those were left in from our full framework. Version 1.0.1 has those eliminated. ~Thanks for the heads up!

Yes, I ran into this problem as well. I’m the s2Member developer for WordPress, and my plugin is broken by Maintenance Mode.

Please, please, please, remove the pluggable.php include call. A WordPress plugin should never force this file to be loaded ahead of others. ~Thanks. Otherwise, I’m a huge fan of your plugin!

Great to hear. Thanks for the kudos! ~Very welcome.

s2Member v3.0 has just been released with several new features/fixes.

Great to hear that. Thanks for reporting back!

This bug could not be reproduced in the last round of testing. That being said, there have been many improvements in s2Member v3.0+. Please give the latest version a try, and report back if you continue to have problems. Thank you!

We finally tracked this down. v2.9.2+ fixes this:

Thanks for reporting this. This is going to be corrected in the next release. v2.9.3+ will resolve this bug.

You can use the PayPal Button Generator to create a Buy Now button for a Lifetime subscription. So this is already integrated into s2Member, you just need to create a Button for it, using s2Member’s Button Generator.

Go to:
s2Member -> PayPal Buttons -> Level 1

Choose:
Lifetime / Non-Recurring / Buy Now
It’s the last option in the drop down menu.

Regarding one-year access.
s2Member expiration is driven by the PayPal subscription service. If you’re not going to tie a membership to a “subscription” at PayPal, then the account will always be granted lifetime access. This is because s2Member would never receive an EOT ( End Of Term ) notice from the PayPal subscription service. Not when a Buy Now button is used.

You can simulate this EOT, by writing a custom script that goes into your database, looks up members at a certain Level, checks their original registration date, and then deletes their account after one year.

We are working on a more automated solution, just for this particular scenario, in a future release of s2Member. Until then, a custom script should work nicely.

Thanks,

Thanks for reporting. This has been tested in v2.8.9, and is working correctly. If you’re still getting this error, please try this:

1. Triple-check your PayPal/Auto-Return configuration. Log into your PayPal Account, and go to: Profile -> Website Payment Preferences. Turn Auto-Return on, and ALSO enable PDT ( Payment Data Transfer ). Both of these features should be turned on. Once you’ve turned these on, PayPal will give you an Identity Token for PDT. You’ll need to copy/paste your Identity Token into the s2Member -> PayPal Options panel.

2. Are you in Sandbox testing mode? If so, is your PayPal Email Address configured with a Sandbox address, or with your real PayPal Email Address? When doing Sandbox tests, you MUST have a Sandbox Business account configured for s2Member, and not your real PayPal address.

3. If you are Sandbox testing, make sure that you generated your PayPal Button Codes after you turned Sandbox mode on. If you’re Sandbox testing, using Button Codes that were generated for a live site, you will have problems.

Please report back if possible. I’m happy to assist.
