LearnPress Paid Membership Pro Add-on 4.1.0
Wordpress Plugins Learnpress 4.8 (3.0K reviews)
The LearnPress Paid Membership Pro Add-on is a WordPress plugin that connects the LearnPress course builder directly to the Paid Memberships Pro plugin. Any site running both plugins can use this add-on to assign courses, course categories, or even individual lessons to specific membership levels. A student who holds a particular membership tier gains access to the content tied to that tier, while everyone else sees it as restricted. The connection works both ways: when a membership expires, access disappears automatically, and when someone renews or upgrades, their new permissions take effect without manual intervention. Instead of editing user permissions one by one, an administrator defines which membership levels can see which material once, and the system handles everything after that. This makes it possible to run a subscription-based online school where different dues unlock different parts of the curriculum, from basic introductory lessons to advanced masterclasses.

Multiple membership levels can be created and each one can have its own set of permissions. One tier might include all beginner courses, a second tier might add intermediate content, and a higher tier could unlock advanced classes, certification tracks, or a library of specialized materials. Course access can be granted broadly or narrowed down to a single lesson, so a school can keep certain modules hidden until a student reaches the appropriate level. The add-on does not replace Paid Memberships Pro; it relies on that plugin for managing members, processing payments, and handling subscriptions. What this add-on adds is the bridge between those membership records and the content inside LearnPress. Joining a level makes the relevant courses appear in the student dashboard. Cancelling a membership or letting it lapse makes those courses disappear from view. This automated approach removes the chore of manually tracking who paid for what. The result is a clear learning path that grows with the student's commitment.
The add-on requires LearnPress and Paid Memberships Pro to be installed, and PHP version 7.0 or higher is recommended. It works with standard WordPress user roles and meta data to determine who can view what. A dedicated admin screen shows which membership level maps to which course, and the settings appear in the expected places inside the WordPress dashboard. An administrator can also manually grant or revoke course access for a specific user, which is useful for handling special cases that do not fit the normal membership rules. Later versions of the plugin include performance improvements for sites with large numbers of students and courses, so access checks do not slow down the learning experience. Membership renewal and expiration events are handled cleanly, keeping content locked or unlocked as intended. The plugin is distributed under the GPL license, which means the source code is open, it can be modified, and there are no recurring fees tied to the license itself.
For an instructor or school owner, this opens up straightforward ways to structure content. A free course can remain public while advanced material sits behind a paid tier. An academy can bundle several related classes into a premium package, or reserve a certification track for the highest level of membership. Because access is tied to subscription status, the same setup works for ongoing learning libraries where new lessons are added regularly and students stay subscribed to keep seeing them. Admins can mix and match these approaches, keeping some content entirely free and gating the rest. Community features fit naturally into this setup, since restricted forums or groups can be paired with the same membership levels. The day-to-day operation stays simple: define the tiers, assign the content, and let the plugin apply the rules at login. Anyone already using LearnPress and Paid Memberships Pro separately will find this add-on to be the piece that ties them together.
