Control access to your site - create a private WooCommerce store to protect your content

What customers say

We have a customized online shop to sell school supplies for parents with children in one or many school levels. We had a lot of issues trying to fulfill the requirements such as restricting products and categories only to registered users, restricting products categories depending on the school level, and giving parents access only to those products their children need for their current school level.

We are more than satisfied with the WooCommerce Members Only because it not only helped us solving all the issues we were having but also gave us some more functionality, like restricting menu items and widgets, which made our store even more precise to our customer needs. Plus the support is A+: fast and attentive to all our needs.

I've been using WooCommerce Members Only plugin to setup presale access for people who previously bought our limited edition books.  The difficulty we faced was that we couldn't create private access to a specific user role.

This plugin enabled us to assign multiple roles to users and thus enable presale access to them when we are about to launch a new product.

FAQs

Pre-sales and Licensing

Will this plugin work with my theme?

All my plugins are independent of the theme being used so there shouldn't be any problems. If you do run into any issues, just let us know and we will take a look.

Do you offer refunds?

Yes, there’s a 14 day money back guarantee. The purpose of this guarantee is to give you plenty of time to assess the plugin to see if it will meet your needs.

During the 14 days, if you’ve got any questions about the plugin and what you are hoping to achieve with it, just raise a support ticket and we’ll get back to you.

You can find out how to register your refund request here.

Is there a free trial?

We don’t offer free trials or backend demos but all products are backed by a 14 money back guarantee so if the plugin isn’t what you wanted, we will issue you with a refund.

This allows you to spend time testing the plugin on your own environment, with your own theme and with your own plugins. It’s the best way to help you be sure that the plugin is what you want.

You can also upgrade your licence at any time – so, if you wish,  you can purchase a Yearly licence initially then upgrade to the Lifetime licence within the first year and just pay the difference.

If you have any questions during your 14 day refund period, you can raise a support ticket and we will get straight back to you.

How long is the licence valid for?

Yearly licences are valid for a year. During that time you are entitled to receive free updates and support. After 12 months, yearly licences will automatically renew. You can cancel at any time.

Lifetime licences are a single, one-off payment. Lifetime licences do not expire and you are entitled to receive all future updates for the plugin.

You can purchase a Yearly licence then upgrade to Lifetime if you wish. Upgrade within the first year to just pay the difference.

What’s the difference between the Basic and Pro licences?

The Basic licence entitles you to updates and support for one site; the Pro licence entitles you to updates and support for unlimited sites.

You can try out the Basic licence first then upgrade to Pro at any time. Here’s how to upgrade your licence.

Is the plugin translatable?

Yes, all our plugins are fully translatable and many come with translations in various languages. If you wish to contribute your own translations, we can add those to the core plugin to ensure they don't get overwritten.

The plugins are also compatible with WPML and other popular multilingual plugins like LocoTranslate.

Is this plugin HPOS compatible?

From version 8.2, WooCommerce is introducing a High Performance Order Storage feature to improve store performance. All our plugins are HPOS compatible.

Features

What methods can I use to protect content?

With Members Only, you can choose how to protect your content in a number of ways. You can restrict access by password, user role, or logged-in status. You can even restrict access to individual products and posts according to specific users.

Only the users that you have chosen can access your content.

Password options

  • Set one or more global passwords
  • Create different passwords for each product or post
  • Create different passwords for each product or post category

User role options

  • Specify one or more user roles at a global level
  • Allow different user roles to access different products or posts
  • Allow different user roles to access different product and post categories
  • Restrict or enable payment gateways by user role
  • Restrict or enable shipping methods by user role
  • Set expirations for memberships

Custom registration options

  • Allow users to select their role at registration
  • Manually approve users after registration, if required
  • Prevent pending or rejected users from logging in
  • Set different default roles for new users
  • Add custom fields to registration form

Other options

  • Restrict access to users who are logged in
  • Create user-specific products by restricting access to specified products to specific user IDs

User role editor

If you're protecting your content according to user roles, you need a simple way to create and manage user roles. The built-in user role editor lets you:

  • Create new user roles
  • Duplicate existing roles
  • Edit role capabilities
