   Hello, Andy!

   I’ve an issue about Wishlist Widget Control I can’t answer till now. I created 2 wishlist member levels in my website; then, I created 2 new menus (using WP 3.0) – one with all the pages for Module1 (my first level) and the other (Module2) with all the pages associated with that level.

   So, I created 2 custom menus widgets, to display on my website sidebar: one for “Module1″ level, using “Module1″ menu… and the other for “Module2″ level, using “Module2″ menu.

   But when a new user connect to my membership site, the 2 widgets desappear… only when I login (admin user), the widgets appear Ok. I discovered that everybody with a subscriber role cannot see my widgets in action, using WishList Widget Control.

   I want my users see only menus corresponding to membership levels they have access, but this don’t work. Why?

   Am I doing something wrong? Can you help me?

   Versions I have:
   Wordpress: 3.0
   WishList Member v2.30, Build 592
   WL Widget Control: 1.0

   Thanks.

   Miguel

   Hello Miguel,
   You are using WP3 but your WL widget control is outdated ( its v1.0) . You should use WL Widget control version v1.3.26 with WP3
   Thank you

   Hello azeoeko,

   You can find settings for wishlist member at wp_options table. look for “WishListMemberOptions”. You can backup it via phpmyadmin or just using WLM backup feature right inside wishlist member plugin under wishlist->settings->backup.

   Above backups only WLM settings. If you want to backup WLM setting plus all members, then you need to create full backup of your wordpress database. Because WLM use above option and user meta to store the info. Its good idea to have a full backup when your site work fine. ( try export database).

   Thank you
   Andy

   Thanks a lot for all your help ! But my issue is I feel my wordpres database is messed up but it still works. To bad there isnt one option within wishlist to export everthing ( Setting /Members / Database ) to easily import it again within a new wordpress install. That would be an awesome plugin.

   Thanks for your help, hopefully someone comes up with one or wishlist adds it to there plugin.

   Hi for some reason when I log in on my wishlist log in for it redirects me to the wordpress log in page (wp-login.php) and I have to log in all over again. How do I make it that when I log in on my form it redirects to the members page. . .

   here are the codes on my form :

   USERNAME:
   PASSWORD:
   Remember Me

   Lost your Password?

   Hello John Tanedo,
   Just set your After Login page to a page ( let say Dashboard). ( from WLM–>settings –> Default after Login Page OR WLM membership tab–> Selected level–>Advanced–> After Login setting) Also make sure you are not using other incompatible plugin. Try to deactivate them and test your site.
   Thank you

   Hi,
   is there a way to use the tag [private] in the code? I’m trying to block the access to a certain category of users to a particular function of buddypress.
   Thanks

    I have whishlist and it is running amazing for the membership access.

    I have 500 post of different product but i want to add a buy now button automatically to each post with the same price for each product and just give access to that particular post that they bought with a buy now button.

    How can i do this ? please help.

    ————————————————
    @Andy There are so many ways to do this. One way is creating a plugin that insert “buy now button” code at those posts for you. Another quick way is adding ” buy now button” code directly to your theme. there are so many ways to protect your post contents. basically it can be protected by user levels. You said you have lost of posts and I am not sure how many products you have. If there are lots of product I suggest using Wishlist member API to automatically protect those post for you.

    Hi there, where can I find this:

    “Hello Miguel,
    You are using WP3 but your WL widget control is outdated ( its v1.0) . You should use WL Widget control version v1.3.26 with WP3″

    WL Widget control version v1.3.26

    I have : You have the latest version of WishList Member (v2.50)

    With Version 3.0.1

    When i log into wordpress with admin, i see everything.

    When i login as a first level (basic) user, my sidebars disappear plus I get 500 pages when clicking on any category.

    Please help.

    Thank you !

    @Andy Actually latest version is WL Widget control version v1.3.27 Now and it works with no problem. You need contact WishList member support team to give you a copy of this plugin.

    OMG, all I did was upgraded to the latest wishlist member plugin and just noticed a new setting:

    Only show content for each membership level: Yes No

    It was set to Yes but I dont need it because I use per post:

    [private_NOVICE][private_BASIC][private_NORMAL][private_SILVER][private_GOLD][private_PLATINUM][private_LIFETIME][private_TODDLER]

    [/private_NOVICE][/private_BASIC][/private_NORMAL][/private_SILVER][/private_GOLD][/private_PLATINUM][/private_LIFETIME][/private_TODDLER]

    With what i want to hide.

    Now that i changed that, my wordpress also flies in speed.

    Looks like that option uses a lot of memory to check permissions.

    Nice website, keep up the great work.

    Thank you Georgina, It is not good idea to use multi level tags inside each others. It may takes times to process them all. However I got idea to create a featur plugin to mix tags and build new tags.

    Imagine we could set [private_MyCustomTag] = [private_NOVICE][private_BASIC][private_NORMAL][private_SILVER][private_GOLD][private_PLATINUM][private_LIFETIME][private_TODDLER]

    Then you could simply achieve same by using [private_MyCustomTag] your content [/private_MyCustomTag] .Look shorter and clear. by using API this can be done and Performance should be much much better.

    Hey Andy,

    Good on you for being willing to answer questions about Wishlist!

    I’ve been trying to find out if there are any conditional tags or something similar that can be used to determine if a post is protected. For example, I want to add an image next to the post headline (via a hook and my functions file) if the post is protected and a different image if it’s not.

    Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

    Hi Andy,

    Do you know if we can create a php conditional function based on WLM levels?

    Similar to the wordpress conditions like !is_page(); -or- !is_post(); except for a wlm level, ie: is_wlm_level1();

    Hi, I’m new to membership site with WishList. What I want to happen is that, when a member sign in to my site they should not see the default WordPress menus instead they only see the menus that I have created. Please help.

    @newbie
    You can do this using WLM API or by using a plugin with name WL smart nav. that allow you to show different menu for different level.

    You no need use private tag inside code. By Using WLM API you can simply check if current user have access to this connect or not .
