WP-Members is a plugin to restrict WP content to be viewable by registered site members. It is designed to work "out-of-the-box" with no modifications to your theme, but also to be scalable for those that want to customize the look and feel, or want to restrict only some content.

By default, WordPress allows all content to be "open" and viewable by anyone and allows the site owner to restrict specific content if desired by setting a password for the post. WP-Members operates with the reverse assumption. It restricts all content by default and allows the site owner to "unblock" content as desired.

The plugin adds fields to the registration process to include name, address, phone, and email.

WP-Members 2.0 is a quantum leap forward from the 1.x. It was rebuilt from the ground up to be easier to install and allow more scalability. Unlike the previous 1.x versions, 2.0 is designed to use the WP users and usermeta tables. This allows it to be compatible with other login based plugins/addons such as a forum. NOTE: upgrading from WP-Members 1.x requires the use of a migration script to get your users into the WordPress format. Download the migration script at http://butlerblog/wp-members/
