wpmem_post_memberships

Description

Filters the memberships required to access content (by post ID).

Replaces the wpmem_post_products filter.

Parameters

$post_memberships
(array)(required) The memberships assigned to the post.

$post_id
(integer)(optional) The post ID being filtered.

Usage

The following example shows how to use this filter hook to apply all posts in a category to a specific memberhship:

/**
 * You can have all posts in a category set to require a membership
 * by using the wpmem_post_memberships filter hook and WP's has_category().
 *
 * @see https://rocketgeek.com/plugins/wp-members/docs/filter-hooks/wpmem_post_memberships/
 * @see https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/has_category/
 *
 * NOTE: This filter requires that you also have the category blocked (or at least
 * all posts in the category marked as blocked). The simplest way to do that is to
 * use a filter to make sure any post in the category is viewed as blocked.
