memberships vs. subscribers

[kvento]

So I setup the site to be a register only site via PMP. You shouldn’t be able to subscribe at all. SO – all “memberships” should be seen through the paid memberships pro plugin, and NOT through wordpress users tab. How are people bypassing the register, they shouldn’t be able to login/create an account without paying to register. I’ve read everything on setting up memberships, etc but clearly I’ve missed something since there is a loophole.

Also, upon registering we are using the paypal express gateway, so it pushes the subscriber to the paypal site. But once they try and create an account through paypal, there is an error to use a valid email – which it is and it is the same email used to setup the account on the site. Any idea there? I’ve attached a screenshot of that one.

Hi,

To can view all new registered members also under pmpro you should give a certain pmpro role once with registration, to can do that use the next code by pasting it in wp-content/themes/kleo-child/functions.php

1 from pmpro_changeMembershipLevel(1, $user_id); Represents PMpro role id and change with your desired one

COPY CODE

/**
	* When registering, add the member to a specific membership level 
	* @param integer $user_id
**/

//Disables the pmpro redirect to levels page when user tries to register
add_filter("pmpro_login_redirect", "__return_false");

function my_pmpro_default_registration_level($user_id) {
	//Give all members who register membership level 1
	pmpro_changeMembershipLevel(1, $user_id);
}
add_action('user_register', 'my_pmpro_default_registration_level');

NOTE : Child theme needs to be installed and activated.

Cheers

Where are the ‘subscribers’ under the ‘users’ tab coming from, though? I see member listing under PMPro (people who have paid) but there are a ton of people just listed under the users tab (on left side) as subscribers. I don’t get how they are signing up?

[Radu]

They are listed in wp-admin -> users -> subscribers

The subscriber it’s the default role for wordpress or buddypress signup

Right, but there shouldn’t be anyone in Subscriber. I have it set up that they need to pay via PMPro to even make a username and password. Not sure how anyone is becoming a subscriber.

[Radu]

I don;t know exactly the reason, but maybe those are there before you have a membership to the site.
Any type of account created by the user it’s default subscriber role, Also if you login with facebook will give you a subscriber role.
