    Hi Gents,
    I have a capabilities question. It’s kind of a pre-sales question, however since I have bought the Theme membership in the past (and will renew again either in the future when needed for the current site, or sooner if WPGEO fits this new sites current need) I thought I would list it here rather than send an email. I hope that is the right choice.

    Question:
    We’re looking at creating a paid membership site for licensed instructors (think similar in concept to Beachbody or other coach style program) and I would love to tie that with the functions of a directory. My challenge is the directory is only a single portion of our needs….no biggie I use a good plugin which supports all the others…That plugin is Restrict Content Pro which is essentially a robust and versatile membership plugin. My challenge (or question if you will) is there a way to tie the membership together. I would like the customer to only have to pay and register one time therefore having access to listing ability (WPGEO) and the other paid areas and functions (member dashboard, downloads, etc..)(Restrict Content Pro).
    I hope my question makes sense….
    Basically is there a way to tie the two together so that when the client registers through one they have access to both plugin restrictions.
    As I understand that you expect paid memberships to fund your business and ongoing development I do not expect you to explain or give the solution to me for free and would be happy to renew if it is possible. At the moment I’m just trying to find a yes or no on the possibility to guide my purchases.
    Thanks for your help
    Shane!

    Users can only register as a WordPress user, and can only register once.
    Lots of plugins intercept that registration process, to simplify it, or to force payment, etc.
    You should always try to pick one registration method/plugin only: in your case that would be Restrict Content Pro. Remove any other way of registration.

    That should be all you have to do. Make sure that any redirects to registration or login go through your Restrict Content Pro process and that’s it.

    Restrict Content Pro should be able to assist with that, either as a setting [I am not familiar with that plugin at all] or their support.

    Thanks

    Thanks Guust. That answers my question about using WooCommerce Memberships.
