Question about specific Page purchase and cookies

Postby Jwrbloom » December 4th, 2010, 3:25 pm

What happens to my users who have their cookies erased or choose to do so because that's what they do?

I just erased my cookies to test, and there is really no way for me retrieve access via my test account. I'll have a lot of coaches/teachers who will purchase and read from school. Those locations typically block cookies and don't often let their network browsers save them longer than their browser is open.

I tried protecting the page with a Level 0 setting, but that doesn't work. I know it said in the video to not protect that page because it would require another purchase, but I didn't think that meant to Level 0 protection too. It doesn't even recognize the purchase at that point when that's set up.

There has to be a more secure way for this transaction to take place for the sake of the User side. I also need for Users to register for marketing and fund raising purposes.

There has to be way to tuck that s2member_sp_access cookie with a Level 0 cookie. It certainly wouldn't be a strain on the User to register to Level 0 after the purchase. Then on each future purchase, it continues to attach the applicable s2member_sp_access cookie to the same Level 0 cookie.

In fact, in more testing, if I do require the User to be logged in (is_user_logged_in), it redirects me even if I'm logged in as the Admin.

There has to be a different way to do specific page purchases.
