Hi, Is Commons in a Box suitable for a paid membership site?
if so, I presume I need to add a plugin, to restrict access to different levels of membership – is there any one that is recommended, or known to work ?
It is for a fitness exercise type concept – similar to Zumba, which will have multiple locations, and I need a Coaches area , plus also a discussion forum and community that can be part seen by the public, but opened up once a membership is bought .
The main site will be in a seperate wordpress install and is here http://www.cobrafituk.co.uk
any hints, tips, help advice or pointers welcome.
My other solution would be to install forum software, like phpbb in a folder. But, i do like the social network aspect of Cbox !
regards
Mark
Hi Mark –
You are free to use CBOX in any way you choose. Many CBOX sites serve “closed” communities – i.e. registration is limited to a certain set of people. I am not really aware of any organization using the platform for commerce – it wasn’t designed for that – but I’m sure you can shop around and find plugins to manage that aspect of your site. Good luck – and maybe others on this forum might have suggestions as well.
