    Hello,

    I am currently using WooCommerce to allow clients to purchase memberships on a website. When a purchase is made, a WordPress user account is created and managed by the ActiveMember360 plugin.

    Can I make it so that people can’t register through the default WordPress page used by GeoDirectory after installing this plugin?

    My goal is for the purchases made in WooCommerce which creates the WordPress account to be the only way for a user account to be created, and to also be able to create a listing.

    I presume that once a user is created by the Membership plugin they will be able to create a directory listing since they will be a “Subscriber Role”. Obviously the membership plugin can also be used to lock / hide the page with the form to create a listing.

    Thank you

    Would I simply have to untick the box “Anyone can register” shown here: https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/basic-installation/#anyone

    Because the registration process would be handled by the WooCommerce and membership plugin, unticking this would simply prevent people from registering directly form a WP page, correct?

    People could still leave reviews (without being registered) and this would be handled based on my settings and permissions for posts inside my WordPress installation. Is that right?

    Thanks!!!

    Hi Pol,

    Sorry for the late response. If I’m not mistaken, disabling this “Anyone can register” option would prevent registration entirely for GD and the entire WP. But I’m not sure if it affects WooCommerce and the membership plugin that you’re using. Have you given it a try?

    Thanks!
