Drip Function not working. Am I doing something wrong?

#1

I am using S2Member Pro
I have my posts set up so that only one article is showing on my post. I have also removed the navigation to the “next”, “previous” posts.
I have set up the drip function so that one article will show for 3 days, and then stops showing, then the next article shows on day 4.
Example:
[S2Drip access=“1” from_day=“1” to_day=“3”}…first article goes here…[/s2Drip]

next article…
[S2Drip access=“1” from_day=“3” to_day=“7”}…content [/s2Drip]

Am I doing something wrong? because all I see is the first article only. I was hoping the first article would expire and the second one would show on day 3.

Is that the exact shortcode you’re using? I noticed you have a } where you should have a ].

Thanks for the reply raamdev
I made a mistake when I was typing this. On my website the short code is correct. it opens with [ and ends with ]. So that is not the issue.
I have not been able to use the drip function successcfully. Am I missing a setting, or something else? The code is as it should be.

Are you testing with an s2Member user who has been registered for at least 3 days and less than or equal to 7 days?

#5

Yes, I created a user from the front end, I was logged out as administrator. The registration was 4 days ago.

#6

I noticed also you have S2Drip instead of s2Drip; it should be the latter, lowercase s.

#7

Actual code from the website (copy-paste):
[s2Drip access=“level1” from_day=“1” to_day=“3”]
content here…
[/s2Drip]

Has anyone used the drip function successfully? I’m not sure if this feature even works? Is there any other way to make this happen?

It does work, yes. The shortcode you posted (copy-paste) looks great. Just be sure to test that as a regular user, because testing it as an admin will create a lot of confusion.

Thanks for reply Jaswinc. I was registered as as user when testing. I’m not sure if I was getting the correct results, I was expecting that when the content expires, it would just disappear, but it seems that the title of the content will remain, although you lose access to it. Maybe I had different expectations of how the drip function should work. I think the code behaves as it should, but not as I expected. You can mark this as resolved.
