404 but don’t want a redirect

I am relatively new but do have a basic understanding. I have a market place (like etsy) and I have created a group with a monthly subscription. I need the subscription to be public so that someone can pay and join.
You get the 404 page is lost message but of course you don’t get the 404 message if you are registered.
How do I correct this?

Thank you,
Sidney

      Hi sidney,
      don’t worry, If you are not a developer, is normal that you do not understand.
      The option to notify when a subscription is due is not available, so you need a developer to create your custom solution ( probably using the “groups_updated_subscription” action ).
      Maybe in http://jobs.wordpress.net/ you can found a developer.
      Kind regards,

    Ok… I figured it out. When someone tries to subscribe, they get prompted to register 1st……..So, Someone must register 1st, then they can purchase subscription and then I can give them vendor privileges.

    Thank you so much…

    Question: Is there a way for me, the admin to be notified when someone’s monthly subscription is due? That way I can send out a reminder??

    Thank you,
    Sidney

      Hi sidney,
      You could use the “groups_updated_subscription” action ( do_action( “groups_updated_subscription”, $subscription_id ); ) checking the subscription status.

      Hi sidney,
      but your subscription page should not be restricted.
      This fields should be empty:

    Hello I had already added that code to my subscriptions. It works just fine if you are already a member and signed in. The member can go to the subscription page and click the Subscribe button and PayPal opens etc…That is Good.
    When someone (who is Not signed a member or signed in) clicks on the subscribe button, that is when I get the 404 error.
    I have several screen shots that include my shortcode in Subscriptions, Permalinks etc; but don’t know how to share them with you.

      Thinking … maybe you have the page restricted to a group, or in a category that is restricted to a group ?

    o.k. I redid a test Subscription page with just one subscription product. Hopefully you will see something in the code that is preventing a non-logged in member from being able to click on a “subscribe” button without the “404” error.

    Thank you,

      Thanks Sidney,
      please try this:
      – Create a subscription ( from Subscriptions->Add new ) adding this code in the content: [groups_paypal_subscription]
      – If you visit this subscription and directly you are redirect to 404 page, then visit Settings->Permalinks and click on Save (you do not need to change anything)
      – Then you should see this subscription.
      If the problem persists, please give me an url to test it.
      Kind Regards,

    I don’t see any code on my subscription page. I use short code [groups_paypal_subscription] in the subscriptions groups .

    Hello Antonio,

    I have created a monthly subscription for my vendors and it seems like only registered members can see the subscription and then purchase. I want the subscription to be public so that anyone that wants to become a member must purchase a subscription 1st before become a member.

    Hi Sidney,
    really I don’t understand your scenario. It seems that you have restricted your subscription page so you get the 404 when you visit the subscription page.
    Please give us an url and an use case.
    Kind regards,
    Antonio B.
