Killer Features of MemberPress

One of the best features of this tool is content dripping. This is where the user releases protected content to members at different set times. The Drip feature makes it easier for users to apply their own rules when releasing content. This applies to any content that is restricted including videos, articles, and audio.

You can set up a drip feature rule using these basic steps:

The first thing you need to head to your WordPress dashboard >MemberPress> Rules.

You can edit an existing rule by clicking on it. You can also create a new one by clicking on the ‘Add New’ button. Next, scroll down until you come across the section ‘Drip / Expiration’. Click the checkbox next to ‘Enable Drip’. Lastly, set the Drip trigger.

The Drip trigger has several options which can be accessed from left to right:

• First Drop Down – In this drop-down, you need to enter any whole number that corresponds with the second drop-down.
• Second Drop Down – In this section, select either day(s), week(s), month(s), or year(s).
• Third Drop Down – The third drop-down allows selecting the event that triggers the drip.

Sequence Dripping

You should note that there is no feature to set one rule. This means you can’t control several pieces of content at a time. The reason being there is a unique rule for every unique drip feature. The plugin also allows you to create a page for dripped links to your dripped content.

Drip Partial Content

As a user, you may want to drip particular sections of your content. You can do this by creating a partial content rule with a drip feature. You are only allowed to set up one unique drip feature per-rule. Therefore, you are required to create a unique and partial content rule, for unique dripping triggers.

Once you’ve set up a drip trigger, you will be provided with simple shortcodes to wrap the content. To hide your content, add a custom message in its place. Just use this shortcode [mepr-active].

Notifying Users of Drip Content

Currently, there is no feature for triggering emails to alert members of dripped content. Users can automate their workflow with many email marketing add-ons. To check whether MemberPress supports your email marketing add-on, contact its support directly.

You can use MailChimp, for instance, to automate your workflow. This is done by setting up an Automated Workflow. This automation allows you to set your first trigger when a member signs up. You can also set it after they subscribe to your services. If you feel that the process is hectic, just contact the MailChimp help center directly.

Its integration with MailChimp allows users to add members to the list after subscribing. This applies to specific members or any of your member websites. This makes it easy for you to send emails to users when there is a drip content. To ensure that this works, just set up the integration properly. After that, create an Automation Workflow in MailChimp, and add drip triggers to your rules.

Expiration Feature

This feature allows you to expire access to content if it’s a limited edition. This feature is only available for paid subscribers. This means that you can apply the expiration rule to a certain date. When it reaches, the content won’t be available anymore. This applies to all the members on your site.
