Yes, that's a great idea. I think that came up in the past but never made it on our TODO list.

I'm putting it back on the list now. Thank you!

No, you should enter the PHP in the HTML tab of the editor, not Visual, and you'll need Exec PHP for it to work, too.

Jason, wouldn't it be good to have a shortcode for the key? E.g.

Code:: [s2Get download_key="example.zip" /]

Or even a full URL version like

Code:: download

this is what I get from inputting the link using the html side of the visual editor. I have changed the name of the download file is all. I think in the S2 download advanced instructions, it said that the ending php tag had to be of the format shown here ?> for the link to work. Maybe the issue is in the conversion of the rest of the UTC8 character coding.

Code:: DOWNLOAD DEMO eBOOK

Sure, please send that over using the form Cristián provided.

This code snippet:

Code:: ("successfulflyfishing-expire.zip"); ?>'>DOWNLOAD DEMO eBOOK

... should ultimately produce a clickable link that looks something like this:

Code:: http://www.successfulflyfishing.com/?s2member_file_download=successfulflyfishing-expire.zip&s2member_file_download_key=98234kljsdf9234sssf9wruw

* If your "Key" on the end, doesn't look something like this, I suspect there is a problem with the PHP tag not being evaluated. You might also try placing the code snippet directly into a PHP template file for your theme. This code will not work inside a Post/Page unless you have a PHP execution plugin installed/configured properly.

Jason,

1st thanks for wp-show-id plugin. This plugin works great.
2nd I installed the php plugin you recommended and activated it. Then tried the s2member key link in a post and in a page with the same 503 error returned.

Since I had a WP blog get hacked badly in Jan, I am much more careful about php being executed. I am running some code in my .htaccess file that may be causing the problem.

If you wish to see the code I will send directly to you. Is there a way to send you a private email on the forum?

Thanks for reporting this important issue.

Did you use this code inside a Post/Page?
If so, make sure you've got a PHP Execution plugin installed first:

503 error using the s2member key url

2011-05-22T14:12:18-05:00

I have a file in the s2member file folder and am using this link.

Code:: echo s2member_file_download_key("successfulflyfishing-expire.zip"); ?>'>DOWNLOAD DEMO eBOOK

This is the 503 error I get when clicking the link.
503 ( Invalid Key ): Sorry, your access to this file has expired. Please contact Support for assistance.

I have the download limit set to 10 in 365 days so that should not be it.

Any help appreciated.
