    What are the php calls to find out what membership level a member is a part of? I want to be able to display certain sidebar content based on what membership level a member is using if else statements, but I need the call for the if part.

    Thanks!!

    Also, can members be a member of multiple membership levels? Want to make each membership level a different product… so, I need them to be able to be a member of different membership levels, so they can purchases and access different products.

    @john Thanks for visiting. We don’t provide API call for our plugin yet. So you’ll not able to get very tidy syntax for finding membership level. You can find membership level id though using the following code:

    global $auth;
    $levelId = $auth->getUserInfo(‘membership_level’);

    Thanks anyway.

    How many membership levels are allowed ? Can I manage a member’s “memberships” together. I am thinking of allowing subscribing members access to updates and upgrades for products they have already bought – I sell bundles of related MP3 tracks which can be added to periodically – but if one of my subscribers stops subscribing, then I’d like to turn off all of the memberships.

    I want to offer a discounts to my members according to their membership level – Free members pay full price, subscribers get 50% off. I am looking for a membership plugin / shopping cart combination that lets me do this – Can eMember / eStore do this ?

  • admin (author) said:

    You can have as many membership levels as you want. Nope, you won’t be able to have the discount scheme you explained with eMember and eStore.

    Hi

    Great plugin – however we are having a problem with membership upgrades.

    We have three different sales pages.
    1. workshop program
    2. Presentation program
    3. Workshop & presentation programes together.

    We have hit a problem when a buyer purchases one of the single programs ie workshop and later decides to buy sa the presentation program.
    This software shows an upgrade but does not allow access then to the page with both programs.

    We are looking to go live tomorrow and your help would be greatly appreciated so we can get this right.

    Regards
    Grahame

    Is it possible for a free membership site, to have an Administrator approve each members registration? I want to restrict registration to certain people, however I’m not sure how to protect the registration page from others.

    Is there an option to grant access (or not) to custom post types as well?

    Thanks,

    J-P

  • admin (author) said:

    @J-P, Yes, eMember can protect custom posts that you create. The custom posts will show up under the “Posts” menu for protection settings.

    If we have a membership level set up for a service and want to allow members the option of purchasing a second service how do we go about doing this? They would need to be able be members of different membership levels.

  • Ivy said:

    Hi Kelly, Members can be members of different memberships at the same time. They just need to be logged as a member at the time of the purchase.
