Create a “free” category for all registered users when using the PayPal Subscriptions extension

Chad Butler · Jun 6, 2017 ·

When using the PayPal extension, any blocked content will require the user to have a valid and current subscription with an expiration date in the future.  Otherwise, when viewing content, it would ordinarily be replaced by a message indicating they either have not completed payment or that their subscription has expired and they need to renew.

The following script will allow you to create a category or categories that are still restricted to registered users only, but they do not need to have a paid subscription – essentially a “free” category that still requires registration but not completed payment.  Continue Reading →

Updating to 3.1.7 – What you need to know

Chad Butler · Apr 1, 2017 ·

This article is provided free. Find out how you can get full access to premium content, including how-to articles and support forums, as well as priority email support and member exclusive plugin extensions..

 

WP-Members 3.1.7 will be released Monday evening, April 3.  There are some great improvements in the plugin that I am excited about, but if you are an existing user, there are some significant changes you should be aware of before blindly updating.

Note that there are no database changes updating to 3.1.7 from any flavor of 3.1.  So you can roll back to the previous version if necessary.  Continue Reading →
