Membership Options Page?

What is this for?

I get the error message : -

s2Member security restrictions will NOT be enforced until you've configured a Membership Options Page. See: s2Member -> General Options -> Membership Options Page.

This details in this tab specify the following: -

Please choose a Page that provides Users a way to signup for Membership. This Page should also contain your PayPal® Subscription button(s). We recommend the following title: Membership Signup.

* However i dont want anyone to be able to sign up to the site and i dont want paypal buttons, i want free subscribers that only the admin of the site is allowed to create. I was forced to set it to a page so i chose 'About'

What do i need to do here? I have been following the client portal tutorial video here >
http://www.s2member.com/wp-content/uplo ... ortals.mp4

And it is all working great.

Any help on the membership options page, like what i need to do would be great!

My site test link is:-

http://www.pbwebdesign-warrington.co.uk/test/

Am i right in guessing that its the page it goes to when you dont have access to a certain clients area?

Eg: Logged in as paul, try to access mary = get redirected to the about page???


Your Plugin is BRILLIANT!!! And THANK YOU for the well demonstrated video!!! :-)

You could always have a "membership options" page with nothing on it. Or better put a "Sorry you don't have access to this area of the site - if you believe you have received this message in error please fill out the contact form below" message - and then put a contact form (I use the Fast Secure Contact Form plugin from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-contact-form/.) Then if an admin approved member can't get access to something they should be able to get to - at least they have a way to let you know.

Then install the "Exclude Pages from Navigation" plugin from http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/ and on the "membership options" page untick "Include this page in lists of pages " so it doesn't show up in your menu.

You can also create a Members Page by using the following code which I found somewhere in this forum only.
Code: Select all
<?php if (S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_IS_LOGGED_IN){ ?><!-- checks to see if they're logged in at all, if they are, we show -->
Welcome, <?php echo S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_DISPLAY_NAME; ?>! <br>
You are currently a "<b><?php if (is_user_logged_in() && current_user_can("access_s2member_level1")){ ?><?php echo S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_ACCESS_LABEL; ?><?php } else { ?>  Free Member<?php } ?> </b>", and have been for <b><?php echo S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_REGISTRATION_DAYS; ?></b> days.

<!-- this doublechecks to make sure they're logged in (not sure why I did that) and makes sure they're of a minimum level, then tells them their level label (which you specify in the options) and tells them how long, overall, that they've been a member -->
<br style="clear:all;">

<i>Modify Your User Information</i>-<br>
<iframe src="<?php echo S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PROFILE_MODIFICATION_PAGE_URL; ?>" scrolling="auto" style="width:100%; height:525px; margin:auto; border:1px solid #666666;"></iframe>
<!-- this embeds the box where the user can modify their info -->
<!-- end this statement -->
<?php  } ?> <!-- end the first if/else statement -->
