I am using WordPress 2.6.2. I installed the WordPress plugin. All I want to do is to protect one page on the main menu. This is a page, not a post. When someone clicks that menu item, I want it to take them to a login/signup page. Once they are logged in, I want it to redirect them back to that members only page. My trial is almost over, so I'd really like to get this working ASAP so I'll know if I should purchase it or not. How can I do this? Thanks! Deauxmain
Theres two ways to go about this. 1) using php_include protection the the wordpress file and specify to use it when that specific page is viewed. This will bring them to the amember login page if they are not logged in. 2) use the hidepost plugin to protect the content, this will display a "you must be logged in to view" and give them a login and signup link. This is the method i teach on my site, its much simpler to implement. David
David, Thanks for the reply. I'm trying to use method # 2 that you described. I see it used on your Demo site, and it appears to work exactly like I need it to. If I subscribe to your membership academy, can I quickly learn how to do this? I really need to get this up and running today for my client. Thanks, Deauxmain
Yes, I have a video tutorial on how to set this up. (please do not skip any of the steps- they are all important!) David PS- you should update the wordpress to 2.6.5 it fixes some security holes.
David, How would one go about setting the criteria for this? I understand that it has to be defined in the part of the code that defines the array but am not sure what the required components in that definition would be. Any help would be much appreciated. James
