hello,

im trying to make a popup kind of viewing profile.
like where members can click on view their ACCOUNT INFO and when they clicked on it, it will display as a popup filled with their membership information such as, avatar, username, membership status, membership expiring date, and so on...

And so what i tried to do is, make a new file named "account-info.php" and placed it over to my file directories.
then made a link somewhere on my site with this code

Code: Select all

<a href="javascript:void(window.open('http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/wp-content/themes/MYTHEME/account-info.php','accountinfo','width=600,height=350,top=200,left=365'))">Account Info</a>

The link works fine and it pops up a new window connecting to that "account-info.php"
But the thing is, whenever I put in php codes inside that file (account-info.php), the pop up gives undefined error.

And so this is my question, how to do this? So that I can have my member's informations as a popup window from their membership and so on? Basically, how can i make php work on that new file i created? Because it seems php is not available to use in that file, or maybe its because its outside the loop? Hmm.

bump^^

anyone ?

I am curious about this as well, it would be a nice link to add next to the sign up widget.

still waiting for any kind of support about this idea.

The problem is that you're probably not loading any of the WordPress framework in that PHP file, so anything s2Member-related will not work.

You can try adding this to the top of your PHP file before anything else:

Code: Select all

<?php
    // Include WordPress
    define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
    // Change path below to location of wp-blog-header.php on server
    require('/home/username/public_html/blog/wp-blog-header.php');
?>


If that still doesn't work, please paste here the exact error you're receiving.

This is a similar approach. viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3145&p=9683#p9683
