Members Only Pages

Can be done by createing member template

Create file name member.php

<?php
/*
Template Name: Members
*/
?>
<?php if ( $user_ID ) : // if logged in ?>

YOUR TEMPLATE CODE HERE you can use single.php code if you want with sidebars or a one column no sidebars code your choice.

<?php else : // if not logged in go to login page 

	$url = 'register';
	header("Location:$url"); 

endif; // end if logged in
?>

You need to use register url here $url = ‘register’; I have register because i am using buddypress.
Once you saved the file you will have member template in Page Attribute select that on the page you want loged in memebrs to see.

There’s a tutorial for creating members only content here. It also features a re-direct after login, so users never see the dashboard if yo don’t want them to.
