Multiple level membership for different tabs on the same page

[interlinkusa1]

Here’s the membership Page URL – [https://emoveon.com/wpmembers-home/] that I have created. This membership is offered to customers who buy my product – Website Creation Tutorial. This is how I have setup the membership scenario.

1. Members home page is not protected at all.

2. “Tutorial questions” and the “Resources” pages will be protected and I want to

give 30 days free access to customers who purchase my “Website Creation Tutorial”.

After 30 days they will be charged a fee.

3. Rest of the Tabs will only be accessible to customers who choose to pay to join

the membership.

These are my questions:

1. What would be the best way to do the above membership setup.

2. If a customer buys more than one product then can they have the SAME login information

for all the products.

Thank you for your help

1. One of the best ways to achieve the following is to use a subscription payment:

Give 30 days free access. After 30 days they will be charged a fee

Create a eStore subscription product with 30 day trial. Then hook this product to eMember membership. Now, when a user purchase this product they won’t be charged for 30 days. They will also be able to signup to your premium level and get access to the content.

2. Yes, your users will always have one eMember account. Doesn’t matter if they have one level or multiple levels. A member always logs into the site using their one login username and password.

Thank you for your reply.

Sorry to bother you again. There are two products I am selling.

1. WordPress Tutorials

2. Membership Support Site for the WordPress Tutorials.

Total Membership Pages/Tabs are six. [https://emoveon.com/wpmembers-home/forum/]

Membership Support Site is only seen by people who buy WordPress Tutorials. This is how I am trying to do the setup.

1. When one buys the WordPress Tutorial. I want to offer them free 30 days membership with access to the first two tabs only.

2. After 30 days they can choose to join membership as a monthly member or as lifetime member. When they Join as a Paid member then all the 6 tabs will be visible as a monthly member or as a lifetime member.

I have created two buttons in eStore and two levels of corresponding memberships.

1. Monthly Membership – Protected all the 6 pages

2. Lifetime Membership – Protected all the 6 pages

This is what I am facing–

How do I setup the Membership page with all the 6 tabs so when one buys the WordPress Tutorials product they can have access to the first two tabs free for 30 days only???

Do I create another membership level in eMember Only & nothing in eStore which I can call “Free for 30 Days” and choose “Expire After an Interval – 30 days”. How do I connect this membership to their purchase of “WordPress Tutorials” product?

Thank you for your help.

Make another membership level with a 30 day duration. Make this a free membership level and let users signup to this level for free. This allows the user to test out any content you want to allow them to test for 30 days without having to pay for it.

At the end of the 30 days they can buy one of your other premium memberships if they want to continue.

Does that work for you?

Thanks for your reply. I am still quite confused with this membership as it has 6 tabs accessible at different levels. I did not activate the free membership in eMember General settings as I am ONLY offering free 30 days membership support with the purchase of another product called “WP tutorials”.

My questions are:

Q 1. (a) Do I have to create a free membership in eMember General settings as I had not

created it?

(b) If not then please let me know the steps so one can access the first two tabs for

30 days on my membership site. How do they get the login details?

c) Another possible scenario I am thinking – I have also set a “WP Free Membership”

Free for 30 days in eMember only. Could I Protect this page along with the “WP

Tutorial” page. WP Tutorial page has no expiration so after 30 days one can still log

into this page but will automatically be logged out of the “WP Free Membership”?

Would this scenario work?

Q 2. For paid membership – there are 6 tabs/pages that can be accessed after one pays for it. My question is – in eStore – Digital Content Details –

(a) Digital Product URL can be the URL of the main page which is

[https://emoveon.com/wpmembers-home/]. This Members Home page is not protected

but the link is only shown on the Product Page of “WP Tutorials” which is a

separate product by itself.

or (b) give url of another page which requires login e.g. [https://emoveon.com/wpmembers-

home/tips-tricks/] for people to login.

Thank you so much for helping me.

1) Yes, you will need to create a free membership level in eMember. Then give this membership level access to the two tabs. When your visitors come to your site, they can signup for this membership for free and get access to that two tabs.

2) Use eMember’s “After Login Redirection” feature to redirect the members of your premium level to a specific page. For example: [https://emoveon.com/wpmembers-home/]

More info on how to use after login redirection is explained in the documentation:

Here is a link to another post where another user is using a trial membership option. Maybe that discussion can also help you:

— PLEASE DISREGARD THE ABOVE REPLY. I tried to edit the above reply but it was too late —

Sorry, I think I an not able to explain my issue clearly.

I have created the following 3 different types of memberships and the product page.

1. “Free membership” expires after 30 days – Created only in eMember

2. “Monthly membership” – created both in eStore & eMember

3. “Lifetime membership” – created both in eStore & eMember

4. “WP Tutorials” which is the product page for the purchase of WP Tutorials. On this page I have the link for the Membership site, so only people purchasing this product can see the membership page.

So far this is how I have protected the pages for paid members:

Each of the six pages is protected both by selecting Monthly membership and the lifetime membership.

Q # 1: AM I CORRECT TO ASSUME THAT YOUR PLUGIN WILL AUTOMATICALLY DETECT THE KIND OF PURCHASE ONE HAS MADE – i.e. whether to give the login access on monthly basis or lifetime basis.

This is how my eMember “Settings” is done.

In eMember – Settings – I have not setup a free membership. If anybody clicks on “Join Now” they are directed to my “Store Page” which is the page I setup in “PAGES/FORMS SETTINGS”: Login Page, Registration Page, Membership Payment/Join Page, After Logout Page – all point to [https://emoveon.com/premium-content/] which is the store page.

So if one clicks on “Join Now” – they will not be going to the “WP Free Members” page, instead they will be directed to eMoveOn.com store page.

Q # 2: As per the above setup for “Join Now” redirect – how can one join the free membership as by clicking “Join Now” they are directed to the Store page as you can see by clicking on Join Now on this page: [https://emoveon.com/wpmembers-home/tutorial]

Is there another way to create a Join Now button – only for this free membership?

I need your help to do this setup.

Thank You.

Do the following steps exactly as I have outlined:

Step 1: Go to eMember settings and check the “Allow Free Membership” field.

Step 2: Enter the Membership level ID of your “Trial/Free” membership level in the “Free Membership Level ID” field.

Step 3: Hit the “Update” button to save the eMember settings

Step 4: Edit your “join now/Store” page in WordPress and add the following message there (be creative with this message):

Click Here to Get a Free 30 Day Trial Membership

Make the “Click Here” text a link to your eMember registration page.

Now, when a user goes to your “Join Now/Store” page they can see that there is a free trial option and then click on the link to go to the registration page and signup for this free trial membership if they are interested.
