werkt zoals het hoort
Mooie plugin voor een basis login en membership.
Exelent plugin
Simple Membership plugin solved many of the problems I faced before I knew about it and implemented on my site.
Well built….
I am a newbie, and it was easy enough to use.
Lives up to its name. Fantastic plugin and free.
One night near the end of 2024, a friend asked me if I could set up a website for an digital version of a print newspaper whose first issue would be in shops the next morning. Easy right? I had almost no experience with Wordpress or e-commerce / web payments, but by chance stumbled upon this plugin and managed to set up a new site, hook it up to new Paypal and Stripe accounts, upload all content for the first issue, and set up the paywall on most of the articles (leaving some free for public interest + increasing visibility of the site). The site was up and running by about 9am the next morning, and people started signing up. The “membership levels” feature of the SWPM plugin enabled us to handle print subscriptions as well, with conditional blocks to provide appropriate messages depending on whether readers were logged in and what type of membership they have. It’s been almost two years and the site is still going. We had to make a couple of tweaks in that time, but nothing insurmountable: Make sure “Enable Password Reset Using Link” is checked in the general settings. Otherwise, if someone knows a member’s email address, they can instantly reset their password at any time, which would be quite annoying. Make *absolutely sure* you’ve either turned caching off, or that all member-related pages are excluded from the cache. Do not assume – test it. Go to “Email settings” and change all the templates. I think the account signup placeholder template included the member’s plaintext password. Even though it gets hashed before it goes in the database, that looks bad – take that out of your template ASAP. With Paypal in particular, sometimes a new member would try to register and complete the payment, but somehow not be brought through the rest of the signup process. I had to manually create accounts and copy in their Paypal subscription ID in those cases. I never got to the bottom of that one and eventually disabled the Paypal plugin, and we just use Stripe now. Apart from that, it’s been great, and I got answers to almost any query I had on the forums. Very happy with it.
