specific post/page restrictions not working

I've watched the videos, and I believe that I understand how to restrict access, but yet I'm still not getting the results that I want.


1) I have a product that I sell to members at a discounted price and non- members, at the regular price.

2) Non members don't need to login to see their price and to add a product to their carts. But Members do.

The problem: Non- members can still view members only pricing, and can even add it to their cart even though I've input the post id of the product that I want to restrict into a level 1 tier. I've even used the product tags as a way to block access, but Non-Members still view the members discounts and can add them to their carts. I 've even tried allowing and then not allowing open restrictions. I have block on Post, page and tag restrictions, nothing is working.

Have you tried conditionals?
You can tell s2Member what to show depending on their level, without page restrictions.
Check this video for more information: http://www.s2member.com/paypal-modifica ... ons-video/

You could also go directly to WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / Scripting -> Simple/Shortcode Conditionals.

If you want something a little more advanced then go to WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / Scripting -> Advanced/PHP Conditionals. For more info you can also check this video: http://www.s2member.com/advanced-conditionals-video/

If none of these work then, are you making the tests logged out as an administrator?

Hope this helps. :)

Since I wrote the first post, I've been trying to understand how conditionals work.

The trick with my site is that I will not be accepting payments for my products online. Instead, one of my reps will ensure that we will be able to service the client first, and then confirm the order and take payment over the phone.

I say all this because I wont really need the paypal buttons other than the initial purchase of the Membership.

So I'm trying to figure out how to do conditionals without paypal.

You don't need PayPal or to have payments in order to use conditionals...
