Wishlist Member WordPress Plugin
I loved WordPress long before I started publishing a membership site with it. In fact, even though I was a wordpress expert, I was experimenting with Moodle, Drupal and Joomla trying to figure out what was best for membership site software.
Then I discovered Wishlist Member – a WordPress Plugin.
This solved so many problems for me.
Publishing and membership management became much easier.
Using the option to have content public or protected, I was able to leave some of our articles public and have others only available to the members registered via Wishlist Member. This resulted in great search engine results and potential members are able to see some of the content before they join.
Now Wishlist Member has a new version out that even integrates with membership site reoccurring payments on paypal. While I use 1ShoppingCart because I value the affiliate program, the option to integrate with paypal is very powerful because now you can set up a full membership site for next to nothing.
I do suggest you buy the multi-site license for Wishlist Member. For a little more you can set up as many membership sites as you want. I even use it to set up private, free training areas that I use as bonuses for other things I sell. The fact that launching a whole new membership site costs me no additional costs (maybe the $10 a year domain name) and can be done in a couple of hours is incredible.

Have only just discovered the possibilities of using a membership plugin with wordpress, such as Wishlist member, and your post here makes me think that i really need to get on the ball and get a site up and running very soon, if not straight away.
So i guess i will need to buy it first !
I was contemplating using Amember, but you have convinced me that this plugin is not only easier to use, but will do just about everything i would ask of a membership script
