I'm attempting to use S2Member for a membership site, but when I run through the purchase process with a sandbox account, I just get directed back to the main page of the blog instead of a user registration page.

What I'm attempting to do (although can change it if need be) is to use the paypal button code on a page not in the blog, an HTML file I've created with a video on it as the sales letter.

When the user clicks the button, they can go through Paypal, and after purchase, they should be able to register for the website. Right now, it just sends them to the home page, and nothing happens.

How can I fix this?

I'm having the same issue. I've tried every scenario/button I can think of: regular buy button, logged in free upgrade button, logged out upgrade, logged in regular buy, etc.

I'm in sandbox, NOT offering a free trial - just a regular buy and upgrade. It just sends me back to the homepage.

I noticed someone more recently had this problem as well - can anyone offer support?

Right now, it just sends them to the home page, and nothing happens.

We have a possible fix in place for this issue. A bug was found within s2Member's routines, that are affecting WordPress installations that use a different Home Page URL inside the Settings -> General section. In other words, if your WordPress installation is configured with a home page URL that is different from your actual WP installation URL; this bug can become an issue.

~ A fix will be released with s2Member v3.1.6+. ( coming very soon )
In the mean time, I recommend changing your Settings -> General Options so that both URLs are the same. Please report back on this topic if you can; it will be much appreciated.
