Hi – at the moment I’m working offline still. I’ll double-check it once it’s online.

[wpzippyton]

I’ve tried it and the ?wp_eStore_add_to_cart part of the URL works but the discount part (e.g. &discount_code=50pc) does not work – no discount is being applied. I have the discount set up and it works when clicking on add to cart buttons.

Also, I have a rising reduction applied using eStore Bulk Discount add-on – 10% for two items, 20% for threee, etc – this isn’t appplied if add_to_cart is done in the URL rather than by clicking on the cart buttons – is it possible to get the bulk discount applied if purchases are made via add_to_cart in the URL?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks – sorry for the silence – I have got it all working now just as I want, using section protection.

Another question, seeing that Sensei Modules has been raised – do you know if it is possible to protect Sensei Modules (ie chapters in courses) with WP eMember? I will ask Woothemes as well as this again overlaps WP eMember and Sensei, so it’s difficult to know who to ask.

Take 2 – I will do it using section protection throughout – that will work.

Wishlist Member protects the entire Sensei lesson in the way it is supposed to – no video, no content, no navigation, no “complete lesson” button.

It seems that eMember cannot do this, so reluctantly it looks as if I am going to have to give up on it.

Here’s another screenshot https://www.dropbox.com/s/wg0gwkwv988i0z5/screenshot2.png showing a Sensei lesson and a regular WordPress post. I have switched to Twenty Fourteen theme to make sure there are no issues with the theme I was using. The video is on Vimeo Pro, set to private, embeddable only on localhost and my domain.

On the left is the Sensei lesson, which should be completely protected by eMember. However, a logged-out user or a user from the wrong membership level can play the video and use the navigation links.

On the right is the standard WordPress post, where the video is protected corrrectly.

I don’t know if this is to do with the Sensei lesson template structure or eMember – so far Woothemes have sent me back to eMember.

[wpzippyton]

This is not relevant – the video is embedded from a Vimeo Pro account set to private with embedding allowed only on the relevant domain.

The point is that eMember is allowing this part of the HTML to be seen when it should be protected.

Does eMember only protect the_content() of a post?

… here’s a screenshot showing the settings on the left and the problem on the right:

The “pages” are custom posts (lessons) generated by Woothemes Sensei. The video embed code is entered in the editor in a special textarea entitled “video embed code”. This puts the iframe inside the article element. The structure is:

<article class="post-31 lesson type-lesson status-publish hentry lesson post post">

<header>

<h1>Header 1 title</h1>

</header>

<section class="entry fix">

<div class="video"><iframe>(Video code)</iframe></div>

<div class="lesson-contents">Lesson contents</div>

</section>



<section class="lesson-meta" id="lesson_complete">

<header>



<form>(Form with lesson completed button)</form>

</header>

</section>



<section class="lesson-course">

Previous lesson navigation

</section>

<section class="lesson-course">

Back to course navigation

</section>

</article>

… which should be fine to make the video protected.

I have set general protection to protect these custom posts, and have a membership level which has access to them. (i.e. I am not using partial protection). But when I go to a protected post as a logged-out user or a user who is not a member of the relevant level, the text of the lesson is protected with the message “Please Login to view this content. (Not a member? Join Today!)” but the video, “complete the lesson” button and navigation links are all visible.

It seems to me that the plugin is only protecting the_content() and not the whole of the article element. Even if I entered the video embed code directly in the main content textarea in the editor, logged-out users would still see the “complete the lesson” button and navigation links, which is no good.

Thanks for your prompt reply, wzp. The problem is solved – I was working on localhost and had not realised that live Paypal testing will not work offline. Moved it online and a purchase has gone through.
