If you’re a content producer using WordPress this tip is for you.

If you also have a site that you’re going to install a membership plugin on your WordPress site let me just throw this one out for you consider creating a new version of your website a whole brand new install for your WordPress membership site.

The reason I suggest that is because a lot of times or I should say at least sometimes there can be a conflict between the plugin that’s running your membership and other ones that you’re running on your site.
So the idea is the membership site has minimal plugins besides the membership plugin to get the features you want.

This way that you you can reduce the chance of conflicts and yes it does mean you’re maintaining another WordPress installation which can be a little bit challenging but if this is something that’s paying you money might very well be worth the effort of having a separate WordPress install for a membership site.
