can’t edit membership-join/membership-registration/ with Elementor

Hi,

The default pages that were created are to ugly to publish and need editing.

These pages are created based on your theme. They only contain a shortcode. To customize these pages further you need to use custom CSS code. The following link has more information about the shortcode used in each page created by our plugin by default.

Let me know if the information above helps you.

Kind regards.

Thanks for the reply,

I already had a new registration page designed, so added the shortcode and changed the URL to the new page – named it “membership-join/membership-registration2/” to keep it simple – updated the URL in settings but when I go there it’s still the same default page and says:

Error! Failed to retrieve membership level ID from the membership info object.

I had set the ID to 10 – funny, couldn’t set it to less than 10, it stayed blank when I tried to save it.

Now what?

Hi,

Error! Failed to retrieve membership level ID from the membership info object.

This error message shows up when the wrong free membership level ID is entered?under?General Settings?tab. Please make sure you have entered the correct Free membership level in the settings. The following instructions can help you.

Kind regards.

Thanks – that worked – had named it something else like Member since I didn’t know it had to be named Free.

Why not make it radio buttons with Free as one choice instead of letting wackos like me in there with a blank field to do it elsewise.

So now I can register and login but need something to log into.

My next step is hiding content – I’ll play around with it but sure to have questions.

I have a separate page for each topic containing comment and replies for that topic, that the general public can see, but a hidden submit form at the bottom.

Those that are not logged in can see the comments and replies but the submit form is hidden or inactive until logged in.

Not a question yet but if you have some of your marvelous suggestions or tips on how to do that – I’ll listen carefully.

Thanks again – I’m liking your plugin more and more.

Hi, I am glad to know that you managed to fix the issue ??

I have a separate page for each topic containing comment and replies for that topic, that the general public can see, but a hidden submit form at the bottom.

Those that are not logged in can see the comments and replies but the submit form is hidden or inactive until logged in.

To protect the form from the public and allow the comments to be visible to the public, the following addon might do the trick for you.

Let me know if it helps you.

Kind regards.

Thank you for the reply – that Partial Protection looks like it will work just fine.

I also looked at all the other addons you offer – looks like I’ll have fun playing with some of them too.

So far your plugins are exactly what I’m looking for.

What advantage would I gain by getting the Pro version?

Thanks again for what you do in helping us.

Hi,

What advantage would I gain by getting the Pro version?

We don’t have a premium version of our plugin. We offer free and paid addons. Let me know if you need more information.

Kind regards.

Thanks for the reply – looking through the types of Partial or Section Protection I see they are all based on Logged In or Not.

What about one that is based on Registered or Not?

I know you can Log Out and leave the site while still Registered and return later and only have to Log In again.

But say you have been away from the site for awhile and when you return don’t know whether you have to Register again to Log In?

If there was a Partial or Section Protection for Registered you can hide the Registration Form and have a message display that you are already Registered and only have to Log In.

If you haven’t Logged out and return all the Protected Areas are displayed so you don’t have to worry about it.

Small detail but would clean up that potential area of confusion.

Thoughts?

Hi,

What about one that is based on Registered or Not?

Unfortunately the partial protection addon does not have that option at present. However you could use the following shortcode. If a member sees this message they would know that their membership account has expired.

[swpm_protected visible_to="expired"]

Only the expired members will be able to see this message.

[/swpm_protected]

But say you have been away from the site for awhile and when you return don’t know whether you have to Register again to Log In?

Your best option would be to send an email notifying your members about their current membership status. The following addon can help you with that.

Let me know if the above addon helps you further.

Kind regards.

I purchased the Form Builder but find it lacking in customization, except for adding fields.

It only lets you edit Registration and Profile but not Login.

It also doesn’t allow for editing the text in the forms, size, content, color which I want to do – the default seems bland and needs updated – I would also like to use colored backgrounds in the login and register buttons but seems I can’t.

I was excited to buy the plugin but now feel that the price is too high for only the few customizations available.

Am I missing something?

I’ve deactivated it and don’t plan to use it.

My apologise but I cannot reply to any questions related to premium products in this forum. This is not permitted. Please use the following contact form.
