Wordpress Question - Help Needed

by Jeremy Kelsall

Ok, I'm setting up a wordpress site that is something like a membership, but I only want the users to pay a one time fee, instead of a regular subscription.

Anyone know of a workaround for this?

    Hi Jeremy,

    I've never actually set one up but you can take a look at this plugin...

    The easiest way is to password protect your Wordpress directory in cpanel.

    Create a separate sales page with your paypal button, and add the user accounts and passwords for the blog manually.

    This will not cost anything extra, until you earn enough to invest in some kind of membership software.

      Thought about that, but because people buy all times of the night, it is not really an option. I don't want to have people upset that they pay and then don't get access immediately

    Yeah, saw that one, but am looking for something with payment integration so that the member does not have to be manually approved.

    Basically, something that integrates paypal and wordpress.

    Just use 9999 days and the users will have about 27 years before being prompted to pay again.
