    Pages that are not vissible for not members, show as a short message:

    Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    I want to know how i can edit the style of this page (PHP file)?

    Hi, If you want to customize the CSS then look in the CSS file of the plugin (wp-eMember/css/eMember_style.css).

    I mean, at the registration page, I can create my own page. I use the plugin for a fanzone. Visitors come, if they are not registered, to a page where they get an overview of the benefits (including pictures and text). Is the above text a php file? or can I link to a page like wordpress register / login.

    Every protected page that you protect with eMember will have the following message:

    Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    – The “Login” link will link to the login page (specified in the pages/forms setting menu)

    – The “Join Us” link will link to the join us page (specified in the pages/forms setting menu)

    You can place overview of the benefits (including pictures and text) on the “Join Us” page because that is where your non-members will go. Your members will simply log in and don’t need to see anything else.

    The following post will explain more on this topic:

    Thanks for your quick response!

    Can I set visitors instead of “Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!) ‘Text directly to the join us page referenced?

    No, because some of those visitors will be existing members and they need to be given a chance to login (sending them directly to the “Join Us” page is not the right course of action). There is no guarantee that every visitor that lands on your protected page are not going to be new visitors. This is why you let them choose.

    Hi, on some pages, I get the message : Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    I would like that on all pages for which you need some special access. However, on some other pages I get the message:

    You do not have permission to view this content.

    I would not like to display this 2nd message but rather the 1st. I think I set everything up in the same way, I can-t find any differnce but some pages show different messages. How can I get the message: Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    in all pages for which the user needs to have a membership.

    Thanks,

    Julio

    For the second message:

    “You do not have permission to view this content”

    Can you please check if you are already logged in or not when this happens?

    I have two different membership levels. Standard and Premium.

    When I am not logged in, and try to access the Standard materials, it tells me:

    Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    This is exactly what I want. And once you are logged in, the Standard uses sees another menu in a widget. The menu requires a Premium Membership. When they click on that the message they get is:

    You do not have permission to view this content.

    I would really like to either show a different message that could enable me to put a link to an upgrade sales page or at the very least to get:

    Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    By the way, I tried adding these shortcodes with no luck either:

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

    I have set up the protection levels already. I don-t know if for the shortcodes to work the page should be protected or not. I tried both ways and I could not see any difference whatsoever.

    Thanks,

    Julio

    By the way, something like THIS would be perfect for me, but I just cannot make it work.

    Ideally if I could get something along the lines of….

    ………………………………………………………………

    You need to upgrade to see this information (this only viewable to the Standard Membership AND preventing them to see what is below this dotted line, but at the same time this part invisible to the Premium users)

    …………………………………………………………….

    Premium Information here only viewable to the Premium users

    This is the sample on the site of yours:

    http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/eMember-demo/a-post-where-everything-after-the-more-tag-is-protected-60

    This is what I need but cannot make it work.

    I was checking… When I am NOT logged in at all, in all pages I see the message:

    Please Login to view this Content. (Not a member? Join Today!)

    However, If I am logged in with a Standard Membership and try to access a Premium Membership content, I get the message:

    You do not have permission to view this content.

    What I am trying to figure out is how to change it in such a way that it would give users the possibility of upgrading to see that content.

    Hi, after trying several keywords I found this post that helped me solve part of the puzzle:

    https://support.tipsandtricks-hq.com/forums/topic/membership-upgrades#post-28433

    It enables me to show one part and protect the rest of the document. Do you know if once logged in with the appropriate membership, I could hide the part prompting you to upgrade?

    Thanks,

    Julio
