i just started using s2member (non payed version) and i have a problem with the paypal button. i am trying to make a membership site within facebook, like an app, and the paypal button doesn't work inside of facebook it works fine on my regular site but for some reason not with in facebook. so maybe u guys can help me understand why it works on wordpress and not within facebook. when u click on the pay link in facebook it takes u to the login page instead of paying but in wordpress everything works like a charm...help please

Well, I don't know what HTML facebook allows you to use. Could can generate the link to purchase from PayPal instead of the button form, that should be easier to use in Facebook. WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Buttons -> Shortcode Attributes (Explained) -> output

Well, no idea. They are the same HTML form, right? I suggest you ask over at Facebook support for developers.

It works from WordPress. If you use that form in another HTML page it should work. I can only think Facebook is doing something to it that prevents it from working, which is why I'd ask Facebook about it.
