The MemberPress plugin and its knowledge base use a number of specific terms. Understanding these terms correctly helps you set up and manage your membership site.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
This document lists the most common MemberPress terms and briefly explains each one. Where a term has its own documentation, the term links to it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Anything you sell with MemberPress is a product. MemberPress has two product types: Afiliaci\u00f3n<\/strong> y Digital<\/strong>. You create and manage all products at Dashboard > MemberPress > Products<\/strong>. A group accepts membership products only.<\/td><\/tr>
A product type that gives members access to protected content for a set period. Each membership has its own precio<\/strong>normas de duraci\u00f3n y renovaci\u00f3n (product terms<\/strong>), permisos<\/strong>y p\u00e1gina de inscripci\u00f3n<\/strong>. Access to protected content is most often based on memberships<\/a><\/strong>.<\/td><\/tr>
A product type sold only through the shopping cart. A digital product is a one-time purchase with its own price and access period. Customers can buy several units of a digital product in one order. The Max Quantity Per Cart<\/strong> option on the product sets the limit. Digital products have no standalone registration page.<\/td><\/tr>
A membership product option that controls who can purchase a membership. Here, you set the conditions users must meet to subscribe to that membership.<\/td><\/tr>
The section of the product edit screen that defines the price, billing type, and renewal rules. It also sets the duration (for example, 1 month or 1 year). MemberPress uses these terms to create subscriptions and charge users. A free price locks the billing type to one-time.<\/td><\/tr>
Pausing a recurring subscription stops all future billing until the subscription is resumed. A paused subscription is not renewed and becomes Inactive in the meantime. Only recurring subscriptions can be paused and resumed.<\/td><\/tr>
A purchase made through the cart checkout. One order can contain several products and holds one transaction per product. Orders appear at Dashboard > MemberPress > Orders<\/strong>, where you can refund, cancel, and review them. Members see their orders on the Account page. Order references use the mp-ord-<\/strong> prefijo.<\/td><\/tr>
A feature that lets non-members view protected content a set number of times. Once a non-member uses up the free views, MemberPress blocks further protected content. The user then sees the unauthorized message or is redirected, depending on your settings. You configure the PayWall on the Ficha General<\/a><\/strong> en la configuraci\u00f3n MemberPress.<\/td><\/tr>
The process of a user filling in and submitting the MemberPress registration form for one membership. Registration creates the user account, the subscription, and the first transaction. Users register through a membership\u2019s registration page or, with the cart enabled, through the cart checkout.<\/td><\/tr>
The registration page MemberPress creates for each membership. It sells that one membership on its own. With the cart disabled, every membership sells through its standalone registration page. With the cart enabled, the P\u00e1gina de inscripci\u00f3n<\/strong> option on each membership controls whether the standalone page stays active.<\/td><\/tr>
An optional MemberPress feature that lets customers buy several products in one purchase. It adds the shop page, the cart page, and the cart checkout page. The cart is disabled by default and is enabled at Dashboard > MemberPress > Settings > Cart<\/strong>. Once the first cart order exists, the cart cannot be disabled. Cambio al carrito MemberPress<\/a><\/strong> explains the enablement process.<\/td><\/tr>
The reserved page that lists your products when the cart is enabled. Each product card shows either an Add To Cart<\/strong> button (cart sales) or a View Details<\/strong> button (standalone registration page).<\/td><\/tr>
The reserved page where customers pay for a cart order. By default, it renders as a single-page checkout form. The Enable multi-step checkout wizard<\/strong> option in the Cart settings switches it to the checkout wizard.<\/td><\/tr>
The multi-step form of the cart checkout. It has three built-in steps, B\u00e1sico<\/strong>, Facturaci\u00f3n<\/strong>y Pago<\/strong>, and skips steps that do not apply. You can add custom steps. With the wizard disabled, the checkout renders as a single-page form.<\/td><\/tr>
Registration forms, the cart checkout, and the Account form contain a number of basic fields (for example, the email address). You can add custom fields to these forms. Basic and custom fields are managed on the Campos<\/strong> tab in MemberPress settings.<\/td><\/tr>
The page holding all user-related information. Every logged-in user can open their Account page. There, users view and manage their profile data, payments, subscriptions, orders, courses, and more.<\/td><\/tr>
Emails triggered before or after a specific subscription or registration event (for example, before a subscription renews). MemberPress sends them automatically at the set time. For example, you can send a reminder 7 days before a subscription renews, and in other casos similares<\/a><\/strong>. You can edit the template of each reminder.<\/td><\/tr>
Default emails that notify members and admins about events on the website. Examples include an upgraded subscription or a cart order receipt. MemberPress sends them the moment the event occurs. You can edit the template of each email notice.<\/td><\/tr>
