WordPress eMember – Easy to Use WordPress Membership Plugin

WordPress eMember is a powerful WordPress Membership Plugin that can turn your existing or new WordPress site into a membership site easily.

Install the plugin, follow our video tutorials and within minutes you will have your own membership site ready to go!

WP eMember lets you selectively protect articles by creating various membership levels (example: Free, Basic, Premium, Ultimate etc.) and protect the content (posts, pages, comments etc) of your site. The plugin manages all the membership management side of things.

Plugin Features

Below are just some of the notable features of the WP eMember Plugin:

    Create “Basic”, “Premium”, “Ultimate”, or any other levels you want. Charge more for higher levels of access – all within the same WordPress site.

    Easily protect a section or sections of a post or page to create teaser content. Only members with the correct permission can view the protected section content. How to do it is explained here.

    Secure RSS feeds allow your members to view their membership material in their favorite RSS reader (non-members cannot access the feed).

    I love the eStore and the affiliate plugins, they were relatively easy for me to install. I think I will grab this now.

    @Adega,

    I believe this maybe what you are looking for.

    Section Protection for a Specific Member

    This allows you to protect a page based on member id so only that member can view the page. You can see all the section protection here: http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-membership/how-to-protect-a-section-of-a-post-or-page-88

  • #3 by Adega on April 17, 2012 - 6:38 pm

    Hi,
    I want to know if with this plugin is possible to build a Custom member profile so that i upload invoices (pdf files) to specific users and when they log in they see/download the .pdf from their profiles/download area.

    Thanks!!

  • #4 by admin on March 11, 2012 - 7:28 am

    You can embed your videos on a WordPress post or page then protect that post or page with eMember so only your members can see the content of the page (which is the embedded video). You probably should check vimeo’s terms and conditions first though. I am not sure if they allow you to host videos that you are going to sell. Most users prefer to host their videos on amazon S3 then embed the video on a WordPress page.

  • #5 by Rob on March 10, 2012 - 8:12 pm

    My membership site will allow user to watch educational videos. I was planning to have Vimeo house my videos, with password only access for members. Would this setup work, or would you suggest an alternative.
    Thanks

  • #6 by Ivy on March 8, 2012 - 2:53 am

    @DesignGirl, Yes this can be done. We just added this feature not to long ago so if you already have the plugin all you need to do is get an update and you should have this option. This also works good with the section protection option to protect a page for a specific member id.

  • #7 by DesignGirl on March 8, 2012 - 2:48 am

    With eMember can I have it so when a member (in this case a client) logs in it redirects them to a page specifically for them? This way I can set up a page where the client can view the work I am doing for them (only they can see it).

  • #8 by admin on February 22, 2012 - 11:07 pm

    @Vince, The short answer is yes but to be more specific I need to know if you are going to use a WordPress Multi-site install or just install 3 copies of WordPress in 3 different directories.

  • #9 by Vince on February 22, 2012 - 5:50 pm

    Will this plugin work if blogs are installed in sub directories of the main site? For example, 3 blogs – all in a unique sub directory of the main domain.

    Thanks

  • #10 by Michael on January 7, 2012 - 4:02 pm

    I just like this plugin. It is simple and does what I want it to do.

  • #11 by Charlton Gomes on January 4, 2012 - 1:13 pm

    Awesome product! Just bought the bundled eMember & eStore.
    Still in the process of creating and setting everything with the plugin. I’m having fun! :)

  • #12 by James on January 1, 2012 - 9:24 am

    it is so good and thanks for that

  • #13 by Ivy on December 15, 2011 - 5:10 am

    @Sean, Yes this has been added and tested. Please see the following post:

    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-membership/wp-emember-and-clickbank-integration-470

  • #14 by Sean Mitchell on December 14, 2011 - 7:20 pm

    Have you tested or got this running with Clickbank? Just curious…

  • #15 by admin on December 8, 2011 - 11:58 pm

    It basically means that you only allow logged in user to be able to purchase goods from you. If someone is trying to checkout without being logged into the site then the plugin won’t let them checkout instead it will send them to the URL specified in the “Redirection URL for Anonymous Checkout” field. Most admins simply use the URL of the login page in that field. You can also redirect to another page where you explain why the customer cannot checkout without logging in and what they can do next to continue checkout (for example log into the site or register for a free membership account then log in).

  • #16 by Luc on December 8, 2011 - 4:56 am

    Hi,
    Thank you for your last answer. I wanted to know how to integrate your Affiliate Plugin with Wishlist, and your answer was helpful. But… I’ve just bought several plugins here, and desactivated Wishlist to use eMember :-)
    So I have one question about using eMember with eStore : in a setting box, I can read :

    “(Only use these options if you are using the WP eMember Plugin)

    Only Logged In Members Can Checkout
    When checked the plugin will not allow an anonymous user to continue shopping cart checkout unless the user logs in or registers for an account in eMember.

    Redirection URL for Anonymous Checkout
    When an anonymous user clicks the “Checkout” button in the shopping cart, the user will be reditected to this URL requesting him/her to log in or register for an account.”

    So what about his Checkout ? Do I have to put a button on the redirection page to let him finish his payment ? Or is it already done ?
    Thank you.

    @Anne, you can use the section protection for this. You can read more about this here:

    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-membership/how-to-protect-a-section-of-a-post-or-page-88

  • #18 by Anne on October 13, 2011 - 4:35 am

    Hello, does emember allow protecting just one multimedia file, for example an mp3 file, while leaving another file free to be accessed.
    One file would be a free or teaser version, while the protected file would be the premium file.

    Thank you

  • #19 by Juan on October 4, 2011 - 8:02 pm

    Tank you for this fantastic easy to use WordPress membership plugin. I was able to setup my membership site with this plugin fairly quickly… very happy with it.

  • #20 by admin on September 23, 2011 - 12:14 am

    Glad to hear that you like the eStore plugin. The item selling for member will work the same way it does now. I just want to be sure as to what you mean by “all static pages”. These are WordPresss pages right? You can use both your posts or pages to deliver the membership content (eMember can protect the content of both your posts and pages). The eMember demo site will help you see this better.

  • #21 by Martin on September 22, 2011 - 1:35 pm

    Hello,

    My website has all static pages and I use your e-commerce plugin (great by the way) for the store. I would like to set up a members area for articles and images and audio downloads, would I use the membership plug in and have all that content in a blog type area (ie using posts rather than pages)?.

    And if so, if there were some items for sale in the membership area, as well as those already in the site now, would the e-commerce shopping cart widget work across both of those areas (for example if a member added an item to the cart from the membership area, and then continued shopping in the existing shop, would that all be one seamless process?)

    Hope I’ve been clear enough!

    Thanks

  • #22 by Ivy on September 7, 2011 - 9:29 pm

    @David, the plugin should not slow down your site.

  • #23 by David on September 7, 2011 - 7:21 am

    Hi there,

    I need to offer users on a site a way to create a profile page and wondered if this plugin would suit my needs. I just need them to be able to login, add a profile and possibly have access to certain pages not accessible by normal users.

    My only concern is that this plugin does a lot more than I need it to & am a little worried it will slow parts of the site down. Is this a valid concern? :-)

    Btw, I use your eStore plugin which is superb.

  • #24 by Ivy on September 6, 2011 - 9:08 pm

    @Alex, I have sent you a few emails regarding the questions you have about our plugins. You may want to check your spam email if you are not receiving these emails.

  • #25 by Alex on September 6, 2011 - 9:56 am

    why do you ignore my questions?… i do not get i…You’re nr.1 in my list of buying this plug in, the aff plugin and e-store and you ignore me… why’s that?

  • #26 by Ivy on September 5, 2011 - 9:37 pm

    @Daniel, just to let you know our Affiliate Platform has s2 member integration:

    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-affiliate/integrating-s2member-plugin-with-the-wp-affiliate-software-368

    Also eStore/eMember is integrated with the Affiliate. The Affiliate integrates through the payment processor in this case the eStore.

  • #27 by Daniel on September 5, 2011 - 2:33 pm

    I want to setup a WP MU membership site where members will be able to setup their own landing and sales pages that will have an affiliate program for members to promote the site. I am looking at S2member for the member management. S2member does not have an affiliate capability. Is emember and estore compatible with this concept?

  • #28 by admin on September 4, 2011 - 9:22 am

    @John, drip content in eMember is delivered using a feature called Auto Upgrade. Please review the documentation here to see if it will work for you:

    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-membership/how-to-use-auto-upgrade-feature-to-drip-content-194

  • #29 by John on September 4, 2011 - 8:31 am

    Does this allow for dripping content to members? I have a course that I want to deliver content weekly instead of all at once.

  • #30 by admin on August 24, 2011 - 9:43 am

    @Alex, We obviously cannot give you a definitive answer on that since we cannot predict the future but we have been doing this for quite some time and have no reason to stop in the near future. we actively work on all of our plugins and keep them upto date. Take a look around our site and follow the comment trail.
