Woocommerce integration
-
Hey,
Can you tell me please how can I integrate WP Members with Woocommerce and if I can at all?
Thanks.

That’s a pretty broad question. Is it to sell subscriptions via WooCommerce? Or use WP-Members to block WooCommerce products?
Or use WP-Members to manage/create custom registration fields for WooCommerce?
To sell subscriptions via Woocommerce or to sell some blocked content created by WP Members via WooCommerce as a product (e.g. courses etc). Is it possible?
Yes, there are several ways to approach that.
WP-Members does have a premium extension available for subscriptions – WP-Members PayPal Extension. This applies expiration dates to the users. This extension can be integrated with WooCommerce through a connecting script so that you are only using the expiration date part of the extension but relying on WooCommerce to handle purchasing.
The upcoming 3.2.0 release of WP-Members will include a new feature that allows you to create membership “products.” This can be site access or other things (they are extensible), and they can use expiration or not. This will give some flexibility and customizability to integrating with WooCommerce.
Lastly, certainly you can customize a process using the WP-Members documentation and it’s filter and action hooks. The wpmem_securify filter determines if content will be served to a logged in user or not. That could be dependent upon if they have purchased a product or not.

The thing is that Paypal isn’t an option for me because I can’t accept payments via Paypal in my country because PayPal doesn’t work in my country this way…
So I have my payment gateway’s integration with WooCommerce and it seems like the only option for now.
Did I understand you correctly that for now there’s no solution for WP Members and Woocommerce integration?
Maybe there’s some way for WP Members and Woocommerce integration so I could at least create some restricted content (like courses etc) and sell it via Woocommerce like a product with one time fee (not a membership)?

You may have misunderstood what I was saying about the plugin’s PayPal extension. In this particular case you’re only using it for one thing – managing a user’s expiration. Payment to be handled by WooCommerce (whatever gateway you’re employing)

Yes – that’s what I was saying about the new features in the 3.2.0 release of the plugin. Products can expire (subscription-like) or not expire (as in, “one-time-fee”).
Hope that clarifies for you.
Yeah, it clarifies. Thanks for your help.
