DAP’s NEW Automated Upgrade Feature!

by Leave a Comment

NEW: 1-Click DAP Upgrade is HERE!

DAP Upgrades Made EASY!

We're doubling down on our efforts to make DAP easy-to-use and setup.

Today, I'm very excited to let you know that you can now upgrade DAP to the latest live/beta version with the click of a button from within your DAP Admin Dashboard! You'll not have to upload files via FTP/ File Manager etc. You will not even need the easy installer plugin to upgrade DAP & LiveLinks anymore.

We've just released DAP v7.9.8 / LL v4.9.8 and it supports this new auto-upgrade feature! It's a beta release so if it's a live/busy site, please do not install this upgrade until this release becomes final (likely next week).

It's ALL automated and you can do it from your DAP admin dashboard. 

Here's how it works:

Upgrade button in the DAP Dashboard

When you login to DAP admin dashboard, you'll find an upgrade message and an upgrade button towards the top. This feature is designed to detect if you're on an older version of DAP and it'll automatically show an upgrade button so you can upgrade to latest.


This message will only show up if you are not on the latest version of DAP.

Click on the upgrade button. It'll bring you to the upgrade page.

When you click on the upgrade button, it'll bring you to the auto-upgrade page where you can select the location of your WP install, choose live or beta version, and it'll upgrade you to that version!


You can also get to this page by clicking on "Updates" under the "Reports" menu.

You need to first upgrade to this latest version of DAP (v7.9.8 / LL v4.9.8) for the auto-upgrade feature to be installed on your site. After you upgrade to this version, going forward, you can use the auto-upgrade feature to upgrade dap and livelinks.

DAP v7.9.8 Release Details

BETA Release:

Please note that this is a BETA release of DAP v7.9.8 and LiveLinks v4.9.8. If your site is live/busy, do not upgrade yet.  

How to become a DAP Elite Member:
If you’re not a DAP Monthly Elite member, you could upgrade, and avail our “no worries, we’ll do it for you” service. Plus you get all our plugins such as SmartPayCart.com, GameOfPoints.com for free. Click HERE to find out more.

Access Expired?
If you don’t find DAP v7.9.8 and DAP LiveLinks v4.9.8 zip files in your member’s area, it’s probably because your access to DAP Support & Upgrades has expired. Click here to find out how you can renew your support/upgrade access for another year.

Automated Login Email Reminder!

by Leave a Comment

How to Send Automated Login Reminder Emails!

Watch Video: How to Send Automated Login Reminder Emails!

The other day I got an email reminder from one of the sites that I had not logged-in to from the past 60 days and the email subject caught my attention!

Reminder: Not logged-in from 60 days!


It was an automated login email reminder sent by DAP as I had not logged-in to one of my DAP sites from the past 60 days, and I had configured DAP on that site to send out an automated email reminder to members if they haven't logged-in for a set period of time (60 days).


The email had my login credentials as well so I was able to quickly click on the login link, login to site and check out the new content in the members area!  


What a great way to bring users back to your site and engage with your content again!


Right?


The good news is... you can setup and automate login email reminders, quickly and easily, using DAP's new "Automated Login Email Reminder" feature! This feature is part of DAP v7.9.4.

How to Troubleshoot PayPal IPN Issues!

by 4 Comments

Instant Payment Notification (IPN)

PayPal uses Instant Payment Notification (IPN) to notify 3rd party systems of events such as successful recurring payments, refunds, cancellations, failed payments, etc. DAP relies on IPN from PayPal to "extend" user's membership access upon a successful payment and to cut-off access upon a failed payment. 

Watch this video to see how you can troubleshoot PayPal IPN issues!

Recently one of our users contacted us because even though his recurring payment in PayPal was successful, he had lost access to product in DAP! I tried to find this user's latest payment in PayPal using his first name, but nothing showed up. I also searched by last name (and email) but couldn't find it.

Then I got the user's 'recurring profile id' from DAP and used that to find the latest payments in PayPal and I found it! 

The best way to find all 'recurring payments' connected to a user's subscription is by using the user's 'recurring profile id". This user was charged by PayPal but access didn't get extended in DAP, and as a result lost access to the product. So why did Paypal IPN didn't connect with DAP for this user? 

How do you troubleshoot IPN issues like this? 

Watch the video to find out:

  • How to find recurring Profile Id in DAP!
  • How to easily find all recurring payments connected to a subscription in Paypal.
  • How to troubleshoot IPN Issues.
  • How to find IPN History of transactions that didn't connect with your membership site.
  • how to find the IPN URL to which Paypal sent the IPN And also the status of IPN.
  • The best way to find and resolve missing recurring payment issues in your membership site.

DAP's Podcast : Episode #26!

There’s a direct relationship between the length of a time a customer invests in your business, and their value to your business. In the latest episode of "Membership Site Lab", I've shared everything you need to know about "Customer Lifetime Value" and how to calculate it for different types of products! Look for "Membership Site Lab" in your fav podcast app and subscribe! Here’s a quick recap of what I talk about in this episode:

1. What is CLV and why it's one of the most critical metrics for your online business.

2. Why it makes sense to look at the CLV for each membership level / product individually rather than the overall numbers.

3. The formula that you use to calculate CLV for your membership products! And even within membership products, the formula for monthly, annual and trial memberships needs to be calculated separately. Listen to this episode to find out why and how to calculate it.

4. The calculations for one-off and subscription products are not the same. Find out why.

5. How these numbers can help you make the right investment decisions for your business.

6. Our plans for DAP and how we plan on calculating these numbers in DAP.

7. We offer different types of licenses on our membership sites. Find out what products/licenses have the highest CLV for us and thus our focus going forward!

How to use DAP to Create, Manage & Deliver your Online Courses!

by 2 Comments

Easy & Effortless: Build your Online Courses using DAP!

The New Online Course Builder is HERE!

When I started designing the new interfaces for DAP (v7.9) about 3 months ago, I had a clear vision in terms of how I wanted the finished product to look. And today, I'm looking at the finished product and I feel proud of how far we have come in just 3 months!

My team has worked very hard to complete development and testing of this DAP release (v7.9) - way ahead of schedule! We've had plenty challenges along the way and I'm sure there's more to come, but as Marie Forleo would say, "Everything is figureoutable" :-).

Many of you volunteered to help us with beta testing. I'm truly appreciative of your help and support! 

We're now ready to release DAP v7.9! It'll be available for download in a couple of days but in the meantime, I would highly recommend that you watch the video below to get the most out of this massive DAP release!

This release has several AMAZING features! I recorded this video to showcase one of my favorite features from this release because it'll save you a ton of money, time and effort when it comes to online course creation and delivery! 

How?

  • How to add a progress bar in the sidebar of your lesson pages. 
  • How to track course progression of each student and see where they are getting stuck and engagement starts to drop off.
  • You can setup your course in such a way that the users cannot move on to the next lesson until they complete the previous lesson. You can get users to mark each lesson as complete before they can access the next lesson. 

Please Note: DAP v7.9 will be available for download on Jan 16th, 2019. 

DAP is primarily a membership plugin, however, you can use DAP for all types of products - free, paid, subscriptions, trainings, downloads, online courses, etc. The benefit of using DAP for your courses is that not only it will save you time, money and effort but you'll have a LOT more options when it comes to your lesson page design, templates and customizations that you won't have with other LMS!

Commissions on Products Affiliates Own

by Leave a Comment

How to Configure DAP To Award Commissions to Affiliates ONLY on the Products they OWN!

Over the years, we've received requests from our users wanting to know if there is a way to restrict affiliate commissions (on paid products) only to users that own those products. It was not possible before but it's possible NOW!

Today I'm thrilled to announce the release of yet another amazing feature in DAP! Now you can configure DAP to allow affiliates to earn commissions only on the products they OWN! You can configure this at product level. 

If you want to allow affiliates to earn commissions even if they don't own the product, that's fine too and that's how it works by default! You can turn this feature on/off in DAP Affiliate Commissions page. 

Watch This Video to see how to configure & Test it!

Automated Upgrades

Automated Subscription Upgrades

DAP Can Now Automatically Cancel Subscription In Your Payment Processor When Your Users Upgrade To A Higher Level Membership!

If you sell subscription products, the good news is... now DAP can automatically cancel your member's lower level subscription from your payment processor when they upgrade to a higher-level subscription.

DAP can do this with Paypal, Stripe and Authorize.net. 

Please NOTE:  This feature will ONLY work if you use SmartPayCart.com (SPC) as your shopping cart platform!

Here are a few scenarios where this feature will make things really easy for you:

  • Sales Funnel Upsell Flow: if you offer subscription upgrade as an upsell, you can configure DAP to automatically cancel user's current subscription when they upgrade.
  • Member Upgrade: If you offer upgrades in your members area, now your users can easily upgrade without you having to manually cancel their current subscription in the payment processor. DAP will automatically cancel their subscription in the payment processor and remove their access to the lower-level subscription.

Here's how it works:

STEP 1: Set up a product chaining Rule in DAP Admin >> Products >> Product Chaining page.

The product chaining rules allow DAP to remove user's access to lower-level subscription (say silver) when they upgrade to a higher-level subscription (say gold).

STEP 2: When you setup a chaining rule (as shown in image above), it will open up a new section titled "Upgrade Options".

Set it to YES if you want to automate your subscription upgrades.

Please NOTE: This feature will ONLY work for SPC-initiated subscription purchases. Only set this to YES if you use SPC to sell your subscriptions.

STEP 3:  Test to make sure everything is working as expected!

After you setup a chaining rule for automated upgrades, it's time to test.

1. Purchase a lower level subscription- say silver level.

2. Now using the same email id, purchase a higher level subscription, say gold level.

3. Login to payment processor and see if user's silver level was automatically cancelled.

That's it!
