### 󠀁[Very good plugin for membership levels and control](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-good-plugin-for-membership-levels-and-control/)󠁿

 [Markku Holopainen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/holopmar/) April 1, 2026 1 reply

I have tested various plugins for creating and controlling members in various levels.
This is the only plugin which I trust totally. It is very easy to create user groups/
levels and users in different levels which have access to the different pages. This
plugin really prevents lower level users to access the higher level pages. Thank
you for an excellent product.

Questo plugin è la soluzione perfetta per chi vuole realizzare l’accesso a vari 
livelli di abbonamento (gratuito ma con registrazione delle credenziali, oppure 
a pagamento) per i propri utenti: chiaro e semplice da configurare, ma davvero potente
e ben funzionante.

Even though the plugin was not that simple to install, it went pretty smoothly in
the end.(I already had a woocommerce + learndash running)Now I have a protected 
membership running FOR FREE on my website. I still bought the woocommerce addon 
as I wanted to support the dev as well, and that addon is definitely a must have!
1000% recommend! : ))Also the forum was pretty useful, not very quick to answer,
but I got answer that helped me unlock the few little issue I had, so again totally
recommend!
