Paid Memberships Pro Courses 2.1.1

Paid Memberships Pro Courses is a WordPress plugin designed to help you restrict premium course content to paying members. Instead of manually approving users or using ad-hoc workarounds, it connects member registration with access control so learners can sign up and view gated materials right away. The plugin supports recurring subscriptions, making it practical for ongoing course libraries and membership-based learning communities. It also includes member management tools and custom user profile fields, so you can tailor the experience around course requirements.

With Paid Memberships Pro Courses, you can manage who has access, how subscriptions renew, and what information members can store—all within your WordPress site’s familiar posts, pages, and templates.
