  6. Scroll down to the bottom and click the Save changes button
  7. Repeat these same steps for the other products you want to be attached to a membership site.


Does each product have to be able to view all the pages or can I set different pages to be viewable by different products?

You can set the different pages to be viewable by different products. There are a few ways to do this. 

  1. You can set the pages to be auto-published and then release them to whom you desire when you desire. 
  2. You can control the access of a published page. 

Please note that your Membership Site will need at least one page that is published and not hidden, to serve as the home page of your site.  Otherwise, your members will not be able to access the site.  

Here's how...

  1. Select Content from your Simplero Dashboard
  2. In the Membership sites, select the site 
  3. Select the Courses tab
  4. Locate and select the Course you want to control access to

    Courses_settings
  5. Click the Course settings 
    Course_settings_button
  6. Scroll down to the Access control section and set the settings as follows:
    • In Published area - set it to Published 

      Access_control_for_a_Page
    • In Access control area - mark the option for Only available to customers who purchased the following product(s) 

      Access_control_for_a_Page
    • Then in the Products which should have access - select the paid product(s) you want to link to the site

      Access_control_for_a_Page
    • Scroll to the bottom and click the Save changes button
  7. Repeat steps 1-6 for each course that is paid content not being auto-published and set the control as you desire


One Membership Site for multiple classes with no change in content

One Site for Multiple Classes is an option for when you allow commenting that is only viewable by the class.

Do you have the commenting turned on on your pages but only want it viewable by the class that is commenting and not future or past classes?

To do this you will duplicate the content pages that you allow commenting on to the same site and make those new pages viewable only by the new course or auto-publish them to only the new class. 

  1. Select Content from your Simplero Dashboard
  2. In the Membership sites, select the site 
  3. Select the Courses tab
  4. Locate and select the Course you want to control access to

    Courses_settings
  5. In the upper right-hand corner of the course page, click the Move/Copy button.

    Duplicate_to_button_for_courses_in_membership_site
  6.  Select the membership site and click the  copy button
  7. You will now see the page listed with the word Copy in front of the title

    Duplicate_copy_of_the_course
  8. Re-title it accordingly in the settings of the page and select the publishing option of your choice
    • Select this Copy course and click on Settings then add the new title for the course
      Course_settings_for_the_copy_course


One Membership Site Multiple Classes with Slight content variations for each class.

  • First, you are going to set up a parent page for each class within your membership site.
  • Then you will create subpages under that parent page for their content, blog, or forum. 
  • Note: Once you have created these pages for one course you can duplicate the pages again for each additional course quickly by selecting the parenting page and then selecting duplicate in the upper right-hand corner. 
  • When you structure your content, so that each class has parent page of its own, and then their modules as subpages, you only have to copy the parent page, and the subpages will come along. You can then edit the content of the pages to fit the current class
  • If you do a lot of classes, you might want to order the pages, so you have the most recent one on top, you can use the reorder function for that, and just grab and drag the parent page to where you want it to be
  • Your participants will always only see the specific pages they have been given access to, so don't worry if the site looks a bit overcrowded when you look at it
  • If you want to see it from their point of view, you will need to use an incognito or different browser and make a freebie purchase of the product using an email address not associated with your Simplero ID.
