I was afraid of that — oh, my aching clicking finger. Oh well, it just has to be done once.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!

Well, I don’t know why I didn’t think of this before.

I just made a page for each of my six versions. Then I protected the four variations with the “protect” shortcode”.

Works like a charm. Only generates four three restricted content messages, and I have only six pages to maintain.

Always a way to do what you want — particularly with a versatile plug in like this one.

Rats. I kind of figured that would be the case.

I have 24 separate products, which purchasers choose based on their industry and language. So that’s 24 different products. Historically, over the ten years I’ve been selling online, purchasers will buy one product, and are not interested in the others.

I am mainly trying to find a way to not have to create and maintain 24 different download pages.

I’ll work with the repetitive error messages for a while and see what Kind of feedback I get. Perhaps purchasers won’t be bothered by them. If so, I’ll “bite the bullet” and create the pages as you suggest.

Thanks!

Tested the shortcode and does not work. Still inserts the Button Image URL defined with the product, rather than the text “Buy Now”.

Ideas?

Thanks!

Right … I’ve done that.

However, for each protected section that the user DOES NOT have access to, the plugin displays the message I’ve defined in eng.php.

I will have many sections of protected content on the one page, all different membership levels, and only three sections will be available to any one membership level.

Is there a way to suppress the message for protected areas on this page only?

I know I can simply put a space character in the eng.php file, but that would remove the message from other pages (which I don’t want to do), and still leave in the line returns — many lines.

Thanks!

Actually, that is what is happening, so it’s working correctly. It a small line under my headline with the success message and log-in link.

I’d like to do is a re-direct to a log-in page instead of just displaying the message on the “same” page, so visitors/members are not confused by the headline and miss the small type (which I know I can make larger using CSS, but would still rather have a separate page).

Thanks!

Might as well let me know about both. Most immediate is the Buy Now. But I’ll be developing a site next month that will use a cart.

Thanks!

Hi Ivy,

That did the trick. Works perfectly now! Thanks! Just goes to show you that it’s always the little things that trip you up.

The “show-cart” was just a test to see if it would work when “buy_now” did not. Both worked on a page; haven’t tried it on a post. My products are one-shot sales at the moment, with no need for a cart (right now).

Again, thank you very much. Now I can complete the transition to WP eStore.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

1. WP eStory plugin is active (I can get to admin area, etc.)

2. Shortcodes are working to protect sections of a page, showing sections granted access to a test login properly, and not showing sections not granted access.

3. Shortcodes are placed in a WP page (see #2).

The “buy_now” shortcode is not working, nor is the shopping cart button with this code:

[wp_estore:product_id:1:end]

<!–show-wp-cart-for-digital-products–>

FWIW: I can send you test login info so you can see the results of the properly protected sections of a page (very cool feature, BTW).

Thanks for the replay.

I’ve checked the referenced page, and added the image to the “Add/Edit Product > Additional Product Details > Button Image URL” section. Then placed the shortcode “[wp_estore_buy_now:product_id:1:end]” in the table cell that is to contain the specified image and link,

Here’s the code:

======

<div style=”margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 75%;”>

<table border=”0″ cellspacing=”0″ cellpadding=”0″ width=”478″>

<tbody>

<tr>

<td>[wp_estore_buy_now:product_id:1:end]</td>

<td rowspan=”2″><img src=”http://youremployeehandbook.com/images/common/order-badge.jpg&#8221; border=”0″ alt=”” width=”327″ height=”150″ /></td>

<td><img src=”http://youremployeehandbook.com/images/common/spacer.gif&#8221; border=”0″ alt=”” width=”1″ height=”91″ /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><img src=”http://youremployeehandbook.com/images/common/order-complete-bundle.jpg&#8221; border=”0″ alt=”” width=”151″ height=”59″ /></td>

<td><img src=”http://youremployeehandbook.com/images/common/spacer.gif&#8221; border=”0″ alt=”” width=”1″ height=”59″ /></td>

</tr>

</tbody></table>

</div>

======

And here is the result:

As you can see, the shortcode itself is showing. I recall seeing something in comments or the forum about shortcodes showing but not executing, but don’t recall seeing the solution.

Perhaps I’m not understanding where to place the shortcode?

Please advise… thanks!

Easy enough. Thank you!
