[SOLVED] Muffin Builder and Paid Memberships Pro compatibility issue?
Hi, @muffingroup and BeTheme users!
I searched for answers for this issue but just found something at the Brandon Theme forum - wich I can not access to see the answer because I am just registered for the BeTheme forum... so I will do basically the same question of the user Fish223 at Brandon forum, ok?
Has anyone used the Paid Memberships Pro plugin with the BeTheme Theme Muffin Builder? When I build webpages using the Muffin Builder, PMPro's Members-Only content functionality does not work (all content is still visible to non-members on the frontend).
I really need to do it works. Please, I will appreciate any help. Thanks!

we did never tested this plugin so we can not answer on your question unfortunately. But maybe someone else did and would be able to help you.
Unfortunately I believe that none of BeTheme users here in the forum found the solution to this problem yet.
By the way, I realized that some users are experiencing content protection issues when using any membership plugin together with Muffin Builder for over a year.
In discussion of May/2015 user @l9ucc already faced this kind of problem with WP Simple Membership (http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/5637/wp-simple-membership-issue/).
In April/2016 user @jgabrio also faced the problem using Woocommerce Membership (http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/15709/target-content-in-muffin-builder/).
In the discussion of December/2015, users @piratagua and @livinlife (using PaidMembershipsPro and other membership plugin like WP Simple Membership) have faced the same problem and are still unresolved (http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/11463/restrict-content).
Note that this same discussion the user @pingram3541 gives a hint of the problem, bringing as a stopgap solution using Visual Composer rather Muffin Builder (which MB is one of the great differential of BeTheme and one the reasons we like to use it).
And more recently user @erkdahl is also facing this problem (http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/16948/conflict-with-simple-membership-plugin/).
So it is clear that the problem is the incompatibility between the Muffin Builder and several membership plugins and not only one.
Let it be clear that I understand that the Muffin Group developers team have many responsibilities, new patches and add-ons all the time and maintain a weekly update - as you do - it's really not an easy job.
But note that this is a request that has been going on and increasing for more than a year but has not received a solution.
Please, we'd like you look at us and try to solve this problem, including warning us where on the "to do list" this request is so that we can at least have an idea of when we might have a solution.
And needless to say this, but the correction of this limitation would bring more users to this theme that I think is the best I've used in years and would only further improve.
I do not want you to think I'm going full responsibility for you, okay?
I am in contact with PaidMembershipsPro team also to see if they can do something to help us solve this problem. If they present a solution, even if palliative, certainly I will share with all here because you and I understand that it is of general interest.
Hoping that no one judge me arrogant person who wants to create confusion and making sure that you will look with more affection for this our need, thank all the attention paid ever had.
I am looking forward to news.
Best regards,

P.s.: excuse me if my english contains some errors and I hope you all can understand my message.
Thanks for understanding and for such detailed description
Thanks for the quick reply (as always!).
Maybe the low number of users is not related to the use of this plugin (which is among the leading and most complete in the membership category) but the use of it applied to BeTheme.
A year ago were about 100 stuffs on the "to do list" before you can consider it; today there are more than 500!
I'm sad to read this because it seems there will always be more important things in front of this our need.
I hope you can see that the number of people with these problems between Muffin Builder and any membership plugin (PaidMemebershipsPro, WP Simple Membership, Woocommerce Membership and today appeared another user with problems, now using the S2 Members) is growing and that can effectively put this issue on the stuffs "to do list".
I am sure that you continue to do the excellent work they already do, hoping that soon more this issue will be solved.
Hey! Ho! Let's go!
Thanks again,

I'm doing a lot of tests and I believe monday or tuesday I come back to report you the results.
Thanks!
I had a health indisposition these days and for this I have not given a feedback about the tests with your code. I will be doing the testing now and as soon as possible I'll let the results here, okay?
Finally I ended the tests and I just have to say one thing: THANK YOU!!!
Thank you a lot for the effort to fix this issue. It's working simply fine and perfectly!!!
Once again: thank you!
Sorry, but we did not test this script/plugin with the theme. Our policy
states that we do not support third party plugins or custom code so
unfortunately, we cannot be of any help to you.
Also, we cannot recommend any plugins other than the ones we support.
You can find the list on this page, in the sidebar:
