4. ⚙️ Configure MemberPress for Subscriptions

Now, set up MemberPress to handle subscriptions for your dating website. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Create Subscription Plans:
    • Go to MemberPressMembershipsAdd New.
    • Create different membership levels such as:
      • Free Plan: For basic access (e.g., limited profile views, no messaging).
      • Premium Plan: Full access to all dating features.
      • VIP Plan: Enhanced visibility, unlimited messaging, and advanced features.
    • Configure pricing, billing intervals (monthly, yearly), and descriptions for each membership.
  2. Payment Gateway Setup:
    • Navigate to MemberPressSettingsPayments.
    • Connect your payment gateways (PayPal, Stripe, or other payment providers).
  3. Protect Content:
    • Use MemberPress Rules to protect premium content, ensuring that only subscribed users can access messaging, profiles, or other exclusive features.

Examples of Dating Features:

  • Matchmaking algorithms (requires custom development or 3rd party integration).
  • Messaging and chat functionality (plugins such as BuddyPress or PeepSo can help).
  • View and like profiles (can be limited based on membership levels).
