Integrating wpcourseware with e-member – how up to date is the addon

[GiseleGrenier]

how up-to-date is the wpcourseware integration addon you’re selling? WPCourseware has a ton of updates to their plugin.

I currently have a membership site using WPC and would love to be able to migrate it over and connect it with e-member.

Thanks very much.

The purpose of the addon is to:

• Associate particular courses & their permissions with specific membership levels.

   

• Automagically enroll members in the courses associated with the membership levels they register/pay for.

   

• Retroactively enroll existing members in courses associated with their current membership levels.

Within the scope of the addon’s intended purpose; yes it is current. Any incompatibilities, between eMember and WP Courseware, will be investigated and corrected.

Super, thanks. Will go and buy it right now.

Ok something isn’t working right – I’m going to explain what’s working and what’s not, considering it’s a clone.

Current site: Running WP Courseware and another membership plugin

process in new site:

created course in wpcourseware – copied everything exactly

created a page in WP – again copied everything exactly

Added the membership level access to the page and to the course

Created an member via e-member

Logged in to new site

It confirmed what membership level I had

went to the course page – it shows the entire course outline, except I can’t access anything.

so I wiped everything out.

I exported the course from the current site and imported into the new site

set the access, reset the access for the “test user” for this course, opened another incognito window, the course outline appears, but can’t access.

…opened another incognito window…”

What happens if you just use a regular browser window, preferably on a second computer, or another browser, or under another browser profile?

I did some more testing: I created another version of the course just using the tab feature in Divi – nothing with wpcourseware

Member is in e-member, not a wordpress user

when logging in, member cannot access a course created in wpcourseware

they can see the outline, but not access the lessons

but, that member can access the page with the course created just as content (no wpcourseware integration)

WPcourseware uses wordpress users for enrolling – even when the “member” is logged in, WPcourseware displays a message that you must login.

e-member creates members, not wordpress users and wordpress users is what WPcourseware users to enroll and validate.

I took screen captures of everything and I’d be more than happy to give you access to my setup or even do a zoom call with screen share to show you how I replicated the problem.

Please take a look at this

This will cause eMembers to automagically log into their WP user accounts.

yup, already implemented it last night as I had students wanting to buy some courses.

I love your products and things are working quite nicely together, but I do think a better way of organizing your documentation might have helped save time. Most of the time I have to Google my problem to find the right page on your site.
