My registration page worked fine and after I've added a couple of posts it does not work and displays this error: "User registration is currently not allowed." - how can I resolve this?

Hi furlongdesign,

Can you check what your s2Member Open Registration option is set to? WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Open Registration

If Open Registration is set to No ( do NOT allow Open Registration), then registration will only be allowed after someone makes a purchase. A special registration link will also be generated and emailed to them (you can regenerate these links in WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Buttons -> PayPal Member Registration Links).

If Open Registration is set to Yes ( allow Open Registration ), then you shouldn't be seeing the "User registration is not currently allowed message".

Free registration was not allowed but it was working with these settings before. Now I tried to enable free registration but my other paid options are still not showing up. http://wowmer.com/signup/

Could you please post the form shortcode that you're using?

I just tested your free registration form (http://wowmer.com/signup/) and it appears to work fine. Is the signup page supposed to show other signup options? Have you tried using the non-free button shortcodes on a different page to see if they show up there?

It should show my paypal buttons. And I don't want free registration

Is the button shortcode the only thing you have on the /signup/ page? Also, did you select the signup page in WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Membership Options Page?

Is the button shortcode the only thing you have on the /signup/ page?

-- No, there is rich text too.

Also, did you select the signup page in WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> Membership Options Page?

-- Yes.

I see your registration form; it doesn't show an error:



If you're supposed to have PayPal buttons on that page in addition to the form, can you tell me how you're creating the page? What's the entire content of the page in WordPress? (Please copy and paste it here.)

So that's the content of /signup/? Did you create that page or is that created by BuddyPress to register? I don't see in your code any registration form, so I'm assuming it's being added there by something else, e.g. BuddyPress. In that case, I'm guessing you can't just edit the page as you normally would with any WP page.

Were your buttons showing up before when your registration worked, before you created those posts you mentioned?

Did you find the problem? I get the same message.
Yes, I seclected the right page in s2member-general options-membership options page.
Yes, I selected the right page in buddypress-pages-registration-register.

When I am not logged in and choose the Sign-Up button, I get the message "User registration is currently not allowed". The right page comes up in the URL, but it is not following through. I tested the page before selecting it and it was working fine. Any ideas?

Also, when using the s2member_force_ssl=yes as a custom field s2member_force_ssl as the name and yes as the value - the page just locks up and will not load.

It's a buddypress page but it was working before. I'm really not sure what's wrong.
