Yeah.

The registration buttons can be used anywhere (sales pages, in blog posts, etc.). You don't need to use the "oops" page for normal registrations, that's just the default place where to send someone when he tries a page he can't access.

So if I'm understanding you correctly, I can set up another registration page, and copy the same registration paypal button code as I am using on the membership options page? I would label the new page as "Join", and hide the membership options page (the "oops" page) from the navigation, correct?

Hello Dianne.

Sure, you can do that.

What I'd suggest is that you leave the Membership Options Page to deal with those that tried to access content they didn't have access to, though. For those that want to register, you could use any other page and just point the visitors/members to it to pay for a particular access. Does it make sense?

There are other things you could do, but the above would probably be the simplest.

non-member redirect page

2011-03-22T15:58:46-05:00

Presently, s2 seems to be set up so that when a non-member clicks on a link to a page or post that is restricted to members, it automatically sends them to the registration page. This is the same registration page that I would send people to if I were, for example, doing a campaign to recruit new members?

So I was thinking that if I put a message on the page similar to:
"oops, you attempted to access members-only information, if you would like to join our organization, please select from the following options" and then I would have all the options for subscription below.

However, if someone reached that page and they did so intentionally (with the intention of subscribing) then the message wouldn't apply and would have a negative message that doesn't apply to them.

Is it possible to add a different re-direct page for those who try to access restricted content (oops/negative message), and format the registration page to be a registration page (positive message) ??

Hope so, my brain hurts from trying to learn all this new stuff

Dianne
