Troubleshooting

Q1 I would like to lock a particular woocommerce product category from view by the public and only registered members can access it. These product categories are displayed on the menu. Is this possible by your plugin?

Answer: Those are custom pages dynamically created by the e-commerce plugin. Our plugin’s standard protection won’t’ work for those custom listing pages. Our plugin protects the final full page (the page that actually has the full content). Check the following link forum post to learn more.

FAQ

Q1 Can I collect recurring payment with the Woocommerce addon?

Answer: Yes, you can use any payment that is processed via the woocommerce plugin. Check the following link forum post to learn more.

  1. If the user is already logged in via simple membership, then do they again have to create an account via the woo-commerce or not?

    • Hi Sanan, how did the user register? For example: did they register via WP Users, WooCommerce or Simple Membership?

      Thank you
