Not a single one. Not even the rollback plugin itself. I uninstalled and reinstalled, thinking maybe it just needed updating. No luck.

I have no idea how long it’s been this way, as I haven’t worked on my website in weeks.

I don’t have the option either! Just when I need it the most (Woocommerce has a very unlucky new attribute feature with the only option bein to downgrade it.). I wish I could rollback the rollback plugin. I’ve deactivated everything. It’s not a conflict. It’s a problem that’s clearly not being addressed.

Oh well then. Thank you for such a quick reply. It appears to have synced well, and now I’ll see if all goes well.

Hi there. I am about to do just that.

Your system will automatically pay out – eventually at the end of the day – but it still double pays if I mark anything as “complete”. Which is also unacceptable. If an item’s commission has been paid, then that should be at. I shouldn’t have to dance on eggshells in my own system. I have double checked a dozen times and cannot find why it double pays.

Thanks for your reply, guys! I do understand that others were having issues, but not understanding completely how that worked I can only wonder: if they were having problems with the random sorting, why not just turn off the random sorting? I’m not good at finding the code and adding snippets, so this still leaves me out. But I understand the decision.

Wow, thank you for such a speedy reply.

I do have the chapters enabled in the url.

I’m looking at the rest of your instructions and trying to grok how to specify chapters for public vs private. I’ve been reading your post for 2 days now on it. I’m overworked and exhausted right now, so that isn’t helping.

I think I see what you’re talking about as I play with the settings, but I’m not sure I can set the chapters back and forth. I’ve had a very hard time with s2member all along,and since I can’t afford to buy it I’ve gotten very little support on the matter. Their documentation reads like string theory.

I know there are a lot of good comics I simply stopped bothering with because finding the latest page was a big pain. So I don’t want that to happen. I want the latest page to display to members.

Right now the way it’s set up, if you’re not logged in it shows the latest public page.

Smudge, I will be more than happy to test this for you!!! And thank you!!

Currently I’ve got the entire website locked down and if I were to unlock anything I’d have to do it all manually. That’s a lot of pages.

To lock down the wallpapers and not have them interrupt the story feed, I got a plugin to import them into a page and post them in news feeds. This is good for wallpapers, but I’ve been planning some little side stories for a while now and have no good way to do that.

Just to be able to not have manually okay a bunch of pages is a big deal. I’d pay for this service, I so would.

I happen to be a fan of woocommerce… but if this younger plugin also doesn’t do what I need it to do, I guess there’s no point in looking for it.

The situation with S2Member’s community forum is they no longer house it. They direct you to here. So unless you pay out money, you’re SOL.

So “If you use a commercial theme or plugin and need support, please go to their official support channel” really leaves S2Members out of luck I guess.

Redirecting is why I haven’t even shared my website. And it just seemed to me that other users of S2Member might know if it possessed the functions I need. They use it, right? No coding help needed with a simple question like that. I just needed to know if certain things were possible.

And hopefully another webcomicker will find the beginning of this thread and be helped. Or maybe another answer will reveal itself later after my post here. =^-^=

Oh, just to document in case someone else thinks your link is a good one for the free version: This request type requires a customer account. The email address you provided is not associated with a customer account at this time. In other words, this email address is NOT on file as having paid for the pro version of s2Member yet. If you have another email address, please try again. The address you enter here MUST match your customer account.

That’s what you get. (sighs) But until the system works for what I need, there’s no way they’re getting my last $70. LOL

Yeah. It does a lot, and for other purposes it’s a great plugin. I’d certainly use it for other stuff if I did other stuff… But for my needs it’s missing the most important features.

I may write them a letter outlining my needs and explain the large demand (there are thousands of us webcomickers). If nothing else it’s something for them to consider.

Yes. I did. I’m going to take it that I didn’t get my post edit in in time for you to read my mention about asking for help in more places than this.

I also found an online mention by one of the creators and various other people that direct help was for people who spent money on the system only. That was kind of discouraging.

It doesn’t matter. I’ve found out what I needed to know the hard way. Things move forward as they will move forward.

Actually it’s something based on the fact that when I went looking for support on their home page I was directed here. ?? Which means others who are encouraged to go here because their home page forum has been moved have also made the same conclusion. I can’t begin to tell you the cries of help that went unanswered I have read in the past hours. The angry statements from buyers of pro who can’t even get help when they try going direct. The complaint after complaint. Just. Wow. And I’m telling you when it comes to support, no matter how I looked that’s about all I could find. Although to their credit I did find one or two old posts where the people did get help somewhat. Just not lately.

So as for my comment about support (at least), after rereading my original post it wasn’t even directed at this forum. I mentioned the lack of documentation, period. So there was nothing there to take personally or defend this forum from in the first place. Which means I’d spent a long time trying to find *something* *anything* wow seriously nothing at all??

In my case I’ve gathered that the system just isn’t friendly to what I hope to do. I can’t be the first webcomicker to try this with this system, though, so I tried vERY HARD to find some sort of documentation someone may have put out there. Nothing. I may write up a report about it in my blog, document what *I* have found.

Of course it’s my hope the makers find my various please for help in various places learn of this demand and adapt. It would be lucrative on all sides.

Thanks for getting back to me at least!!!!!! But yeah, I was set to buy the pro version but after finding numerous similar complaints by people regarding getting help, I’ve decided I’d better not. That’s money I can’t afford to see wasted. Really, it’s money I can’t afford period but I was going to. Besides I couldn’t find any documentation that the system did what I need it to do.

I did use your method on the membership page, because someone tried to get a membership before they registered. That turned out badly.

But when it comes to the comic pages themselves, it’s not possible. Comic Easel uses the featured image set up to display the comic pages. You can’t do a wrap around for that.

I also found that although it’s not letting unregistered people see the blocked page, it’s letting them see the comment I made with it. Which is annoying.

There’s only one image per post, even though the system supports multiple comic posts. I haven’t played with that function yet to fully understand it.

To get around another limitation with this system I had to get yet another plugin and create a page dedicated to pulling posts marked for harvesting by that plugin. So I did that for wallpapers.

But if I wanted to post one of the side stories and have it for members only, I’m sore out of luck.

If I want to have a page twenty pages back be for members only, I’m sore out of luck unless I want people to always be thrust out of a smooth reading experience to that spam moment of “buy buy buy buy”.

I’m thankful these guys put the base out for free and all. And so far it really is the only one I could work alongside with Comic Easel without having to go back to college. But I think if I were to find better I’d jump ship at this stage.

That works. (only saying this so I can actually mark this thing resolved. sigh.)
