 * Use the `wpmem_restricted_msg` filter:

 * I paste the php code that u provided from the url but display the content that
   I want and after that the default text.
 * I would like to convert the default text with the new one that I create.

 * You can do that using the [wpmem_restricted_msg](https://rocketgeek.com/plugins/wp-members/docs/filter-hooks/wpmem_restricted_msg/)
   filter I directed you to:
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'wpmem_restricted_msg', 'my_restricted_msg' );
   
       function my_restricted_msg( $str ) {
   
           $str = '<p>Your custom post restricted text.</p>';
   
           return $str;
       }
       ```
