Question regarding membership site set up
-
Hi,
We need some urgent advice.
We are setting up a site which includes a multivendor marketplace and a section for WP Job Manager.
We will offer different membership plans to users so users are authorized to do a number of things depending on what they subscribe to.
For example:
– Membership A allows users to create a store in the marketplace
– Membership B allows a user to post new jobs on WP Job Manager twice a week
– Membership C allows a user to post new jobs on the WP Job Manager 3 times a week and feature 1 of them
…There is no plugin on the market that can handle membership management for both sections out of the box.
We have to do some customization based on what’s available. And we would like to minimize our customization.
1) Membership control as related to a multivendor marketplace is complex.
– For example, we need to control if a member can stock his own inventory, how much he is allowed to do that. Can he edit his customer? etc.Luckily the maker of the multivendor solution already provides a mature plugin that takes care of all these details.
2) For WP Job Manager, the control will be much simpler.
– We only need to control how often a user is allowed to post new jobs, and how much he could feature his posted jobs.
It looks like a logical way will be to use the membership plugin mentioned above to handle the multivendor solution, as it is designed to do, and extend it to manage the membership for users of the WP Job Manager section.
We already added an extension to the membership plugin to accept membership subscription for users who will only use WP Job Manager.
On top of that, can we connect this customized extension to User Role Editor (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/user-role-editor/) to control what a member can use WP Job Manager?
Or is there a better way to achieve this function?
