Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about MemberArea Connector

Yes, on any paid plan: the plugin works through an API key, and the API is part of Starter and every plan above it. A new MemberArea starts on a 14-day trial of Professional and asks for no credit card, so you can build and test the whole setup first. The plugin is a connector: products, courses, members and payments all live in your MemberArea. The plugin itself is free.

On your WordPress server, in the options table. It is sent only from your server to your MemberArea and never reaches a visitor's browser. The settings screen shows at most its last four characters.

No. Members sign in against your MemberArea and get a session cookie on your site. No WordPress user is created, and your WordPress user list stays untouched.

Yes. For anonymous visitors, pages stay cacheable and carry a header telling shared caches to keep member and guest copies apart. As soon as a visitor is signed in, responses are marked not to be cached, including for the common cache plugins that honour DONOTCACHEPAGE.

Yes, for placing blocks: every block has a shortcode twin, namely [memberarea_checkout], [memberarea_product], [memberarea_cart], [memberarea_badge], [memberarea_login], [memberarea_my_courses], [memberarea_progress] and [memberarea_course_catalogue]. Locks are different: an existing lock keeps working whatever the editor, but setting one up needs the block editor, because the panel that holds it lives there.

Yes. Each site in the network connects to a MemberArea on its own, with its own key, and its stored data is removed site by site when the plugin is uninstalled. One caveat: uninstalling revokes the connection in the MemberArea only for the site it runs on. On the other sites, switch member login off before you uninstall.

The plugin registers with the WordPress privacy tools: the personal data exporter lists everything the site holds about a signed-in member, the eraser removes it, and suggested wording for your privacy policy appears under Settings, then Privacy. What the site holds is deliberately small: a session, a name, a picture address and short-lived cached answers. If you connect without sharing email addresses, members cannot be looked up by email here, and the export screen says so.

Uninstalling removes everything the plugin stored: settings, member sessions, cached answers and its connection. The connection is revoked in your MemberArea as well, as long as the API key is still valid and has the Manage permission for WordPress (on a network, see the multisite answer above). Two things remain by design. Access rules on pages are kept, so if you reinstall, protected pages come back protected instead of standing open. And shortcodes remain in your posts as plain bracket text, as with every WordPress plugin; remove them from the post content if you are leaving for good.

The Help Center has a WordPress section with step-by-step guides: https://help.memberarea.io/categories/wordpress. Questions about the plugin are welcome in the support forum here; anything about your own MemberArea, your members or your payments is answered at support@memberarea.io.
