[Support request] How can I create a protected members area?

[lammann]

Hello Tom and forum community

I would like to make some parts of the website accessible only to logged-in users on my website (GP Premium).

Actually, exactly as it can be found here on generatepress.com I would like to implement it.

Only registered and registered members can access the GP-Primium Downloads and Access Keys here.

If you are not logged in, another menu is visible (Log In in the menu bar) than for logged in members (Account and Log Out in the menu bar).

How and with which plugins or settings, can I do exactly that on my website?

Many Thanks

[David]

There are several plugins that can do this for you.
Restrict Content Pro is probably the most extensive at a price:

Some free alternatives are:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/

Hello David

Thank you for your quick response. Just a great support that you have here.

One question I still have: With which plugin have you solved this feature here on generatepress.com?

Best regards
Lukas

[David]

To the best of my knowledge the User Accounts is Easy Digital Downloads, as it is for purchasing. The support forum is built on BBPress.

That’s correct for both 🙂

Thank you, you are a great team.

I love GeneratePress! 😉

Best regards

Your welcome Lukas.

Which one did you end up using Lukas? I too am looking for a plugin, and all the options and variety are stressing me out. I don’t know which to use, to offer a members only area, with a subscription fee, for content.

Hi Jason,

This topic is quite old now, not sure if the OP is still available.

You might want to consider asking the question in our Facebook groups as there are more users there who may have experience in this.
