Homepage Link Changes Wanted to Form Submit Button & JOIN Top Button. Need link to Custom Page Instead!

[breadoflifemediagroup]

Hi I’m Don…you recently replied to an email I sent you about my client in the UK not having a purchase code. Well that issue with the former developer has been resolved. I’m back with the same question(s).

We’ve launched his website already…but I need to know “HOW TO” and “WHERE TO PUT IT”….

 

1. On the Homepage..for the FORM Submit/Register Button and the Top Right corner button (JOIN BUTTON), I need to LINK a Page which is the Membership Plans page I created with pricing tables and Links to a Paypal Button for each membership Price Plan. So that when visitors fill out the Homepage register form…or search form…or decide to select the top right side JOIN button…that they will be taken to the Membership Plans page INSTEAD of being taken to the registration page. Or is there simply some Code to REMOVE the form and JOIN TOP button WITHOUT disturbing the Homepage Display like in the demo? Thanks

2. Is there a way to Make the Homepage look better after turning off the registration and or search form feature on the homepage? Because after turning it off…the page display and layout looks pretty bad. Can the Divi Builder Plugin be used with your theme and is it compatiable. Or is there a simple way to fix the display issue after the form has been turned off.

 

3. Since my client has purchased an updated verified copy of your theme..HOW do I update it to the New Theme WITHOUT losing any of my design or settings or customizations etc..Can I use this WP Plugin or what do you suggest so that I WON’T lose anything or changes/customizations/added css I made and added to the old unverified version?

Currently the registration page goes through the complete signup process WITHOUT ever asking for a credit card payment…even has an email confirmation that allows you to login to the website. I read an article on the PMP Website about this being a know issue with their plugin and your theme.

 

I CANNOT find where to LINK the submit button and the JOIN button on the homepage to….I don’t want them to anylonger go to the registration page as a default setting. Because of the Non-payment issue BEFORE they pay!!!

 

I’ve looked everywhere. I just want to be able to set a link to the Membership Plans page so Visitors who wish to JOIN the Website, can SELECT from a 14 day trial or the other membership pricing plans…then go DIRECTLY To Paypal…for checkout and payment confirmation.

 

After Payment is made…I have already set a ReDirect link back to the Registration page and profile questions..after they have already made payment. Can you show me “WHERE” I can change these link at…and /or what the CODE is to do such a thing and Where i put the code. Do I add it in the Sweetdate CSS Setting? or somewhere else? Or do I just Add the LINKED Page that I want the buttons to Point too from the Homepage? Any help would be appreciate..My client is going bananas because he’s missing PAID sign ups…and everyone’s getting a free ,membership…until this issue is fixed. Thanks In Advance. The Website is http://www.bookadatenow.com if you want to have a look at the issue.

Thank You Laura! I appreciate it. Thanks for the prompt reply. How soon will I hear from this Higher Level Support Personnel? Thanks

[breadoflifemediagroup]

OK It shouldn’t take this long to hear back from support. I have a client who is weary about his new website launch…and I haven’t heard anything back since you said I’d be hearing from a higher lever support person. Please take this matter serious and note that it is TIME SENSITIVE. My client is losing money every hour and day that you don’t respond with a solution. Don’t mean to rush you at all, this is just a very delicate matter with my client. I need to retain my good standing with him and his confidence. When you cannot get in touch with your senior level support it makes it hard to explain that you our clients. Thanks again.

Hi,

1. You will need to have child theme installed and active to can overwrite the original theme files even if you update !
The sign-up button will be link to a membership levels page using the next file.
Go to wp-content/themes/sweetdate-child/ and create a new file named header.php in that you will paste the next content https://pastebin.com/raw/xTmwU19A

2. You can desesign a new slider using revlolution slider from wp-admin -> revolution slider -> new slider.

the divi builder maybe will work, but there it’s slider area.

3. The theme settings from parent and child are separated, example : if you have child theme activated and you have made your theme adjustments using the child theme, when you activate the parent theme the theme options remains in child theme to can have that in both variants you should import from child theme to parent theme the theme settings that can be imported/exported from wp-admin -> theme options -> import/export.

For the pmpro issue that not shows the credit card information, you will have to copy the checkout.php file from paid memberships pro folder ( /wp-content/plugins/paid-memberships-pro/pages/checkout.php )

to : /wp-content/themes/sweetdate-child/paid-memberships-pro/pages/

In this way the default pmpro checkout form wiill be displayed.

The membership levels page it’s a normal page that can be found under wp-admin -> pages -> memebrship levels and it contains [membership_levels] shortcode to generate those.

For the redirection after paypal payment this isn’t modified by the kleo theme, you can ask the pmpro support about a snippet that controls that.

For the users that already signed up free, you can use this snippet to detect logged in users but not paying and to be redirected and locked to memebrship levels page until they pay.

COPY CODE

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'my_membersip_restrict' );
 
function my_membersip_restrict() {
    global $pmpro_pages, $post;
 
    if ( is_user_logged_in() && !pmpro_hasMembershipLevel() ) {
        if (isset($post->ID) && !in_array($post->ID, $pmpro_pages)) {
            wp_redirect( pmpro_url() );
        }
    }
}

The snippet will be pasted in wp-content/themes/sweetdate-child/functions.php

NOTE : The Kleo Child Theme needs to be installed and activated.

Cheers

Ok thank you Radu for the reply. However, I still DO NOT KNOW “WHERE” to add the link to the page I need the Submit button to go to when pushed…and the JOIN button at the top of the home page…to go to when it is clicked. I shouldn’t have to install a child theme JUST TO ADD A LINK to another page in the buttons…IS there a Easier workaround for this? Because you never game me the “HOW TO” or “Where Too” add the link so that the buttons when clicked will go to the page I NEED THEM TO…Not the default way…I want to send them to a page I CREATED with Paypal Buttons ONLY!!! How do I do that…in a nuttshell? Thanks Radu.

Where do the Info/Code for these 2 buttons live? See the screenshot attached.

Its such a shame how you guys DON’T Reply back to support tickets in a timely manner…My Ticket was not yet closed…yet I haven’t gotten a reply back yet about ExactlY What I asked about I don’t write code so not knowing WHERE to put code or HOW to correct it doesn’t help me or my client….its been 3 days now after I waited for days before for the 1st set of questions and a fix. When you purchase a theme with support, you expect the BEST Support..and not long periods of unanswered questions or replies with no real solutions to fix your issues. IT would be greatly appreciated if you could look at the last messages I sent and screenshots…to SIMPLY just show me where and how to link those buttons to the page URL I need them to go to…WITHOUT all of the technical CODE stuff. Or Simply Send me the CODE to Disable BOTH the Search Button and the Sign Up Buttons on the HOMEPAGE!!! I’m NOT a code guy. Thanks…Your help is greatly needed to accomplish this for my client before I lose my job for NOT having a solution that works. HE wants a refund..if you don’t reply back shortly…because this is ridiculous that Higher support has NOT replied back to the rest of my questions yet with a solutions. Thanks

[breadoflifemediagroup]

HELLLOOOOO!!!!!! can I please get some HELPPPPPP!!!! this makes no sense that you haven NOT replied back to this thread…No Question should take this long to answer or have a solution too. This has been too long now…haven’t heard anything back from you since days ago. Can I please get an answer and solution to the LAST QUESTION I sent you with the screenshot of what I need to do exactly? I have paid for this theme and 6 months of support, yet to DON’T and WON’T reply to your customers in a timely manner. I need help please send me the fix or solution to link the 2 homepage buttons to a custom page that I created…or to disable them completely from going to the registration page at all!!! That’s ALL I NEED! I don’t write code so I need your help. thank You In Advance.

Hi, Radu will come back asap with an answer. Sorry for the delay, adding multiple replies refreshes the freshness of the ticket and it wasn’t showing the initial reply time. We added a fix for that so it won’t happen in the future and cause delays.

Thanks for understanding.

Hi,

I’ve provided you a solution how to change the link for the signup button in my initial reply

1. You will need to have the child theme installed and active to can overwrite the original theme files even if you update!
The sign-up button will be linked to a membership levels page using the next file.
Go to wp-content/themes/sweetdate-child/ and create a new file named header.php in that you will paste the next content https://pastebin.com/raw/xTmwU19A

For changing the search button from the home form, it’s recommended to not modifying the template files if you aren’t familiar with the code change.

You can easly restrict the memebrship directory using the next mehod: Wp-admin -> theme options -> membership ->

You can choose the certain action to restrict that, in the screenshot, the member’s directory will be available only for 14-DAY FREE TRIAL and GOLD membership.

The users that don’t have access will be redirected to the membership levels page.

Cheers
R.

Thanks Radu, I see the solution you have provided. I’m not a code guy…so this may be bit of a challenge for me. Is there any way that you can make these changes on the website if I send you ADMIN Credentials today. PLease let me know and thanks for the quick reply brother. Please let me know if you can make these changes for me…I can end you access in a private message if so. thanks again. SO the membership plans page that I created with Paypal button links that go directly to paypal…using your solution…Does that mean that I won’t need to use the Paypal buttons link thru the pricing tables I created also? Because your solution will work.

ALso, can YOU make the search/registration button go to the SAME Page “Membership Levels page…because thats what we need…to STOP it from going to the registration page 1st WITHOUT asking for a credit payment. That’s a glitch in the PNP plugin. We need BOTH Buttons to GO TO THE MEMBERSHIP LEVELS PAGE ONLY!!! Please let us know if you can go in and do this for us. Thanks again. Radu

Thank you also Abe…you and Radu…that makes sense to me now.

[Radu]

Hi,

So all are ok excepting the PMPRO that doesn’t show the card information? This can be fixed using next method, you will have to copy the checkout.php file from paid memberships pro folder ( /wp-content/plugins/paid-memberships-pro/pages/checkout.php )

to : /wp-content/themes/sweetdate-child/paid-memberships-pro/pages/

In this way, the default pmpro checkout the form will be displayed that includes the pmpro credit card information.

If you cannot handle with those I need FTP login credentials + FTP, but this it’s a basic operation and a WordPress site admin should be able to follow those instructions.

Radu I just saw the video..>Thanks Brother…I have the Owner on live message…trying to get front end access because I think he may have copied the info credentials wrong..or maybe the period in the password shouldn’t be there. Give me a sec..Because it would be a blessing to have you fix this while we are chatting…So he can stop fussing at me…lol

Hi,

I see but I’m not allowed to do that operation to call and to ask some credentials, the owner should!

Using only WordPress credentials I’m not able to do that operation.

You cannot do that, to call and to get the FTP details from them since you are the manager of the project ?!

LEt me know

I will check the ticket again soon, please provide to me the correct FTP credentials faster to can solve this!!

Meanwhile, I’ve found this maybe it helps: https://help.1and1.com/hosting-c37630/webspace-and-access-c85098/ftp-c37631/ftp-software-connection-credentials-a595099.html

Thanks Radu.Just Left feedback.

Let me know the answer to my question about..If the changes will be lost after the update to the new theme when it’s launched? Do I need a child theme..and if so…How do I and Where do I find it, install it..and will the changes you made need to be redone or not? thanks Radu. Have an even wonderful week yourself.

[Radu]

Hi,

Thank you so much for the review and stars !!!!

YEs, you need to have child theme cuz I’ve made some Sweeydate Parent core file changes and the most reliable way it’s to use a child theme to can have all those changes even if you update the theme.

The theme settings are saved in the database, so they will not be deleted, but for any case you can save the theme settings from wp-admin -> theme options -> import/export -> Show export text -> copy the data and save it into a text document (notepad, etc.), the theme settings import can be performed from same tab but located under Import Options.

So my changes will not be loose on theme update since only the parent theme updates not the child!

That’s the whole idea of using a child theme.

Let me know
Best Regards
R.
