A hiking membership site can be much more engaging by offering real-world or virtual events such as group hikes, webinars on hiking safety, or gear workshops.

Step 6.1 Event Management and Registrations

You can integrate event management plugins to help plan and promote hiking events. Recommended plugins include:

• The Events Calendar: A comprehensive event management plugin that allows you to create events, display them on a calendar, and accept registrations.
• WP Event Manager: Another great option for managing events, with options for ticketing and scheduling.

Step 6.2 Restrict Event Access

Use MemberPress to restrict event access to certain membership levels. For example:

1. VIP members can get early access to registration.
2. Premium members can access special hiking trips and gear workshops.
3. Free members may have limited access to community hiking events.
