Paid Memberships Pro Custom Post Type Membership Access 1.0.2
Paid Memberships Pro Custom Post Type Membership Access enables you to gate any CPT with PMPro by adding a 'Require Membership' option to chosen CPTs and redirecting non-members to a set page, Type: WordPress. The main benefit is seamless access control for content and even WooCommerce products. Plus you get easy setup and reliable member redirection.
Description
Paid Memberships Pro Custom Post Type Membership Access is a WordPress plugin that extends Paid Memberships Pro (PMPro) to control access to selected Custom Post Types (CPTs).
It adds a “Require Membership” meta box to your chosen CPTs, so you can mark specific content as available only to active members.
When a non-member visits a protected CPT single page—logged out or logged in without the right membership—the plugin redirects them to a page you select.
For sites that use WooCommerce, it also supports “members only” products by redirecting users without access from the single product view.
Main Features
- PMPro “Require Membership” meta box — Adds the PMPro access setting directly to selected CPTs.
- Configurable CPT targeting — Lets you choose which custom post types will receive the membership requirement option.
- Member-gated single page access — Applies protection when users view a CPT item on its single page.
- Automatic redirect for non-members — Sends non-members to a specified redirect page instead of showing gated content.
- Works for logged-out visitors — Redirects users who are not logged in and do not have membership access.
- Works for logged-in non-members — Redirects users who are logged in but lack the required membership.
- WooCommerce “members only” support — Enforces access control from the WooCommerce single product view.
Benefits
- Seamless access control — Manage member-only CPT content through PMPro without custom code.
- Cleaner user journeys — Redirect non-members to a relevant page, improving navigation and reducing confusion.
- Better UX for members — Members can view protected content directly without extra steps.
- Consistent gating across content types — Keep access rules aligned for both CPTs and WooCommerce product pages.
- Reduced manual moderation — Apply membership rules reliably at the content level via the added meta box.
