Create WP user from eMember Simple Press

[asdf]

I have eMember subscribers and I’d like to start a SimplePress forum.

I gather I need to create WordPress Users to have SimplePress log them in automatically.

If that’s the case, how do I create WP users from my eMember users?

Thanks!

Hi Mike, The following post should help:

Hi, I’ve done that, so new users should be integrated, but I have around 80 members that are in eMember but are not wordpress users.

Do I need to make them wordpress users, and how do i do that?

Thanks!

Go to WP eMember -> Admin Functions interface then use the following option:

Create WP account for eMember users

Thanks, that’s all sorted.

I have a couple of questions:

1. When a user cancels, [and they have a wp user account] can they login via wp-login.php? Or does eMember unsubscribe them from wp also?

2. After the installation of simple:press and the linking of wp user and emember, all the emember passwords have been reset. And the reset password function doesn’t seem to be working for anyone. Do I have to reset all their passwords, or have they all been reset to a default password?

Thanks,

Mike

1) When users cancel, they won’t be able to log in via standard WP login screen either.

2) eMember doesn’t automatically reset password. So not sure what happened on your install but does it work now after a user reset their password? Did you import these user records from WP?

1. thanks

2. The users can’t reset their password, so I have to reset it, then they can login and change it, etc. I didn’t import from wp, I had emember first, then installed simple:press so I had to create wp users to get that working. I’m on emember 8.8.9

What happens when a user clicks the password reset link in the emember login widget or form?

Some people are able to reset via that, some people don’t receive the email. [not in spam]

I had issues with people not receiving the setup emails before so I installed this plugin [http://coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/configure-smtp/], that was ages ago though.

okay, looks like it may be an email delivery related issue. Please check the following post:
