Simple Membership for WordPress

Free role plugin, for better membership experience in WordPress.

Simple Membership is a free WordPress plugin for assigning roles to members so that they can’t access restricted content. It works well with education sites where students and teachers have various roles or access to virtual classes. With these restrictions in place, you can select what documents and media they can view and download. 

There are an unlimited amount of levels you can create, while you’re able to place rewards and access for each of them. You’ll have the option to set free and paid memberships, which opens the way for monthly or annual subscriptions. Support is available for different payment options, such as Stripe and PayPal. For similar plugins, you can try MemberPress, LearnDash, and Restrict Content Pro, depending on your industry and requirements.

Restrict access to content

Some websites allow members to register for an account and access content based on their ranking. Simple Membership is an easy plugin to install and use if you want to set various levels for your audience, which works with any WordPress theme. If you want to add extra security, you can force members to use a strong password. There’s also an option for agreeing to your terms and conditions before they can get an account.

Different membership levels

If you have different ranks for your site, which applies to industries like education and iGaming for instance, you can permit various access levels for them. It means that the member will need a specific role before they can view the documents or media at that level. It’s similar to how Discord works when you create a server and only permit specific roles to view relevant channels.

Widget access

For advanced registration and logging in, Simple Membership lets you add a widget to a sidebar. It makes it more convenient for the members to sign in instead of redirecting to a login page. However, the widget is only as responsive as your current theme and doesn’t always work as well on mobile devices if you don’t set it up correctly.

Let your audience sign up

Simple Membership is perfect if you want to give your audience access to restricted content on various levels. It takes away the pain of doing it manually each time someone registers, which can eat up most of your day.
