    Hello,
    I haven't found a specific place for this type of message, so I thought it would be ok to put it here...

    After switching from wishlist member to eMember and using it for a month, I am pretty amazed at the quality of the software.

    Now I have a few suggestions that would make eMember even stronger and more convenient :

    1) When writing a new page/post, it would be great if I could select which membership levels can access this page/post. That would save a lot of time rather that having to go the "Manage Content Protection" each time. I guess Ivy already transmitted this idea to you.

    2) Likewise, it would be great to be able to choose if the general public can see that content right from the page/post instead of having to go to the "manage content protection"

    3) Although I am connected as the admin of my site, it is a pitty I cannot see the content of a protected page/post. Each time I edit a content and want to see the result I have to connect a "test member" which makes it a bit time consuming.
    If there is already a way to access the content as the admin, I haven't found it yet. Please let me know.

    4) Since the login side bar widget knows which membership level a member can access, it would be a great plus to have another side bar widget which would provide direct links to the different posts available for the connected member. This function is particularly convenient for memberships which use auto-upgrade.

    Actually, it would be a mega plus if the widget could provide at the same time the posts presently available for the member, as well as the next few posts to come for that membership level. I am sure a member is more likely to remain a member if he can see what's coming in the next coming weeks or months.
    This function would make eMember stand out even more.

    If I only knew programing, I would really be happy to help you with these ideas, but I don't. Therefore i rely on your skills and understanding.
    Now, if there is any thing in my power which I can do for you, feel free to tell me.

    Have a great day.

    I would like to contribute as well. Things I would like to see for the next version, additionally to the ones Aswad posted above:

    - Ability to list members by level. The dashboard shows the level names as links, but they dont do anything.
    - Ability to manage the content protection directly from the post/page.
    - Ability to redirect member after signed in to a specific page, according to their level. Right now, all the members go to the same page.
    - Ability to manually setup a specific date to the Subscription Duration, right now it gives me pre-determined dates, I would like to for example, say, level 1 will end on December 31 no matter when they signed up.
    - Ability to export the emails in tables, as for Excel or CSV, for more control of members cancellations and deletions.
    - Ability to encript the registration link somehow, as in my case we are not letting members pay thru Paypal, I've overpassed that and created a "hidden" page for them to register after they paid me. Right now, this link can be used by anyone. I would say, the ability to manually send the confirmation email with the encrypted link.
    - Ability to list names by email, name, last name or any other field.

    I know its a lot, but I really enjoyed the plugin, although there is always margin for improvement. Keep up with the good work, guys!

    I forgot. Found couple bugs:

    - After Registering, there is a link that says " You are registered, please login" this works fine for the first level, but when someone from the second level try to login thru this, it automatically converts them into the first level!

    - If they register, and after registration they dont use the "please login" link but the widget on the sidebar, it will make them login BUT the Registration form will show up again.

    - I had the plugin in one site, and then moved it to a second site. The "delete profile" link IN the profile page was working before, now its giving me an error in wp_eMember1.php.

    @Aswad,

    Thank you for the good suggestions. I will put it in my Wishlist spreadsheet.

    "Although I am connected as the admin of my site, it is a pitty I cannot see the content of a protected page/post." - You can use the WordPress user integration so your admin user is also part of eMember members.

    @noche, You can display an email list of members by membership level from the "Members List" menu.

    "Ability to redirect member after signed in to a specific page, according to their level" - This feature is already there. When you create a membership level you can specify the "After Login" page for that membership level.

    "Ability to export the emails in tables, as for Excel or CSV, for more control of members cancellations and deletions." - We have added an option to export all your members details into a CSV file.

    "in my case we are not letting members pay thru Paypal, I've overpassed that and created a "hidden" page for them to register after they paid me." - You should try to do the following if possible:

    - Create a manual member account from the admin dashboard with barebone information after you receive the money from the member.
    - Then use the "Admin Functions" menu of eMember to generate a registration completion link for the recently created member (this will allow them to choose the username, password and other details.

    The registration completion URL is unique and cannot be exploited.

    Added the option to set the content protection while you are editing the post or page:
