    Hi,

    I'd like to use 100% coupons for some products.

    It does not seem to work at the moment, any advice? Here's what occurs:

    1. The customer gets signed up, but does not get automatically approved.
    2. I do manual payment on the "free" account (is it possible to remove this step?), and now the customer can see his products on member.php
    3. I do manual payment on the "free" account, and now the customer can see his products on member.php. He can access protected vBulletin system, but not protected Wordress content, even after a Rebuild DB. Is this a known issue? Any fix?

    1&2 it sounds like you have amember set to manually approve new members?
    You can turn this off. amember admin /setup / advanced / "Manually Approve New Members"

    3) Sounds like something is off on the integration of wordpress. Which plugin are you using? amprotect or amember's?

    Hey David,

    Thanks for the reply. I've confirmed, I do not have amember set to manually approve new members - which is why I'm confused by this behaviour!

    For #3, I'm using the "new" free WordPress plugin from Amember themselves.

    Any ideas?

    Cheers,
    Alastair.

    Check aMember CP -> Setup -> Plugins -> Free -> Require Admin approval do you have that enabled?
    Also, check errors in amember CP -> Error log do you see any errors related to user signup?
    In regards to wordpress, can you explain what happen, user can login but can't access content? Or can't login at all?

    Yes, I had that enabled - now disabled and this works now - thank you.

    This issue seems to have been resolved - I'm not sure how, but it's working now, I've just tested a new 100% coupon user.
