I sent MemberPress an email and they said they can’t do everything I’d like it to do. I’ve been playing around with Ultimate Member for about a week now but I’m not sure it does quite what I’m looking for. I’ll keep playing around with it to see if I can get it to work. If not, I may user NinjaForms and program some customization. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Error on Install – HTTP Error 502.2 – Bad Gateway](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-on-install-http-error-502-2-bad-gateway/) * Thread Starter [wordpress19801](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpress19801/) * (@wordpress19801) * [6 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-on-install-http-error-502-2-bad-gateway/#post-11707050) * Thanks, I’m using IIS 7.5 and was able to figure it out. I’ll describe it incase it helps anyone else googling for help: * An old version of PHP (5.3) had been installed on the server and was interfering with settings for the version of PHP (7.3.6). The whole time I could view the php info page so I thought PHP was working properly, but the WordPress install kept doing odd things – 502 errors, 500 errors, redirecting errors. I also noticed that when I went to the PHP Manager in IIS I wasn’t able to load the php-cgi module – IIS was throwing some strange error. So I wiped out both copies of PHP on the server, installed and configured the latest version (7.3.7), and then everything started working as intended and was able to do the 5-minute WP install. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Error on Install – HTTP Error 502.2 – Bad Gateway](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-on-install-http-error-502-2-bad-gateway/) * Thread Starter [wordpress19801](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpress19801/) * (@wordpress19801) * [6 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-on-install-http-error-502-2-bad-gateway/#post-11705256) * Thanks, I’m managing the server myself.

It’s going pretty well as I took a tutorial on Lynda.com and got a feel for the basics. * For the structure, I think I’ll keep it real simple have an admin, public, and includes folder. I’ll have one shortcode for each wordpress page (just a few total) and keep most of my functions in an include/core-functions.php file. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Great, basic plugins to learn from](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-basic-plugins-to-learn-from/) * Thread Starter [wordpress19801](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpress19801/) * (@wordpress19801) * [6 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-basic-plugins-to-learn-from/#post-11687091) * Thanks Joy, good recommendation.

Those form plug ins seem great. What sort of custom coding would be required and can that make it difficult with things like upgrades, especially for the plug-ins? I don’t mind some custom coding, but I wonder if something like Drupal would be a better fit? I don’t have experience with either so will take some time asking around and exploring both. - This reply was modified 6 years, 10 months ago by [wordpress19801](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpress19801/). - This reply was modified 6 years, 10 months ago by [wordpress19801](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordpress19801/).
