Our status as the number one WordPress Membership Plugin has enabled us to create multiple customized versions of our WordPress Membership Plugin. Two of these WordPress Membership Plugin versions have been trialed and are due to be released within the next two months.

Our ability to expand and develop new versions of our WordPress Membership Plugin is only made possible by our customers support for our range of products. Everytime we release a new version of our WordPress Membership Plugin, we will first offer it as a free upgrade to our existing customers.

Our new WordPress Membership Plugin feedback system has allowed us to gather users first hand experiences of using our WordPress Membership Plugin. This will be continued and expanded to ensure we are developing the right features for our customers, both current and future.

In short, if you want the best WordPress Membership Plugin, you have come to the right place.

Late in 2008 we were interviewed by Aldian Prakoso who was writing a book about monetizing a membership site easily using wordpress.

We talked about the uses of membership systems, how wp-member works, why we use membership systems as a business model, how we manage content on large numbers of blogs and how we target and drive traffic to our sites.

Here’s a quick teaser for you:

Why do you choose membership site as your business model?

The need arose from having content that needed to be distributed to separate levels of members as well as the need for a management system that would integrate user subscriptions and content management. To create a membership site, you really need good unique content so that users will signup. We designed wp-Member so that it would be almost a bare bones system giving the user the flexibility to streamline and suit almost every user management as well as content distribution needs.
Almost every large site develops a need to manage their users and have multiple membership levels, both paid and free. Another advantage to our membership system is that you can distribute seperate posts and pages to each membership level. This allows sites to have their advert banners within free members posts and pages, while paying members get to see the advert free posts and pages.

The book “MantraUANG Dari WordPress Blog” is written in indonesian and is sceduled to be released on Feb 25th 2009 in Indonesia. The author, Aldian Prakoso is currently holding seminars during the leadup to the release of his book. You can find full details here.

WordPress have released version 2.7.0.

For the past month we have been testing wp-Member with the beta releases of wordpress 2.7. Our tests showed that wp-Member is fully compatible with wordpress 2.7. We will continue to test wp-Member with future beta releases to ensure future compatibility.

WordPress 2.7 changes the layout of your wordpress admin theme, so you may want to spend a bit of time getting used to it. The menu is similar to older versions, but is on the left hand side of the screen and has a new graphic styling.

If you encounter any problems or have any questions, you can usually find an answer in our support section. If you can not find the answer you want, you can contact our support team for assistance.

WordPress users will know that the one main thing wordpress lacks when compared to forums is an in-built way to charge for subscriptions and offer a multi layered membership. wp-Member is a charge for subscriptions plugin for wordpress that will not only manage your users subscription, but will let you select what each membership level will be able to see.

Unlike other plugins, wp-member does not lock down your whole site preventing users from viewing any content on your site, although the option is available should you want this. Most new sites will need to have some public content to be able to get users to signup by offering them teasers.

wp-Member is designed to be very versatile allowing you to dictate exactly how your site works.

You could create:

1. a stepped membership system where each higher membership level gives the user access to more and more content with the top level having access to all content.
2. a sectioned membership system where members of one membership level would not have access to content available to other membership levels.

WordPress is not only a great CMS (Content Management System), but it is also a great blog that has features for almost every site. The only downfall that wordpress has is it’s user system. Large, or active site owners will have found themselves limited when it came to user management and creating user groups / access levels

We have created wp-Member to fill this gap and provide you with an advanced wordpress user system that not only manages your users, but allows you to protect posts, pages and categories. You can create as many access levels / user groups as you want and charge a one off payment or recurring subscription for access.

We have designed wp-Member to be as flexible as possible and meet the needs of almost every membership site owner. From small sites looking for a way to provide selected members with access to certain pages to full membership sites with multi level access needs and large user bases.

wp-member will let you create unlimited access levels/user groups, each level can then have unlimited recurring subscriptions ranging from 1 day to unlimited years.
