Members is free role and capability management plugin with some really rudimentary protection features.

MemberPress is a paid plugin with a lot more membership related features, like payment management, lms, coaching, and a lot of other stuff.

There’s more explanation here: https://members-plugin.com/members-vs-memberpress/

MemberPress has a full Developer Tools add-on which builds on top of WP’s REST API. Your developers should be able to use it to lookup just about anything they need from a particular member. It also can be configured to send out webhooks when certain events occur.

You can show your app developers the following documentation from MemberPress:

• https://docs.memberpress.com/article/110-overview-of-using-the-developer-tools
• https://docs.memberpress.com/article/261-developer-tools-actions
• https://docs.memberpress.com/article/260-developer-tools-event-triggers

I believe you can enable the protection feature in Members and then when editing the page the form is embedded on, you’d set something like this https://prnt.sc/o5MpcUxMmHza

Looking through the code, I think this would work in your theme’s functions.php file. Though I have not tested this yet…

function tf_override_enabled_user_providers($providers, $user_id) {
	$user_ids_to_bypass = array(123); // User ID's to bypass
	
	if(in_array($user_id, $user_ids_to_bypass)) {
		return array();
	}
	
	return $providers;
}
add_filter('two_factor_enabled_providers_for_user', 'tf_override_enabled_user_providers', 11, 2);

Verified this works in the wordpress integration for logins:

            // Check skip
            if(defined( 'XMLRPC_REQUEST' ) && XMLRPC_REQUEST) { return $user; } // Skip XMLRPC
            if(defined( 'REST_REQUEST' ) && REST_REQUEST) { return $user; } // Skip REST API

A MemberPress member is a WP User, so all users on your site will be listed in the MemberPress members page even if they didn’t create their account via MemberPress.

MemberPress has a BuddyPress add-on that when installed will sync your two dashboards together. It works with BuddyBoss Platform and BuddyPress. I think you need the Plus or Pro plans to get access to that add-on.

Seems to be, it’s working fine for me.

I’ve been monitoring the change logs, most of these aren’t actual security fixes. They appear to be alterations to the code to make the phpcs scanner happy. Only one actual security issue has been fixed which was mentioned by Caseproof above. So get off your high horse and stop assuming you’re smarter than everyone else!

Not a hassle for the rest of us, thanks again guys. Just ignore this troll ??

Are you seriously complaining that they’re addressing security issues? What a tool!

Thanks Caseproof! I know my site is safe with your plugins ??

I use both Members and MemberPress on a few of my client sites. I love both plugins! One’s not really an upgrade to another, but MemberPress does have a lot better registration, subscription management, and content protection features. Members is more of a roles/capabilities manager without much else.

The notice you’re referring to isn’t false if you ask me. When you stop paying for a paid plugin, then you cannot get access to updates. Software updates frequently include new security patches and compatibility fixes. So by using an old version, you are putting yourself at greater risk with time.

I’ve used it with PHP 8. So far no problems.

The plugin only supports one short URL at a time. You can use others, but you’d have to put in the domain portion manually before sharing the link.

You should be able to block categories from your sitemap/SEO plugins.
