🔐 How to Protect WPBakery Content with MemberPress: The Complete Guide
If you’re using WPBakery Page Builder to create stunning content and MemberPress to manage memberships, you might be wondering:
“How do I protect WPBakery content so only members can access it?”
Good news — it’s totally possible and easy to set up with the right plugin or method. Let’s break it down!
✅ Why Protect WPBakery Content with MemberPress?
WPBakery makes it easy to build rich layouts — but if you’re running a membership site, you don’t want just anyone accessing premium content.
With MemberPress, you can:
- Restrict entire pages, sections, or even individual WPBakery elements
- Offer tiered content access based on membership levels
- Control downloads, videos, or premium features
🔌 Plugin Options to Protect WPBakery Content
1. Use Shortcodes Inside WPBakery
MemberPress offers
[mepr-show] and [mepr-hide]
shortcodes. You can wrap any WPBakery content with these.
Example:
[mepr-show if="loggedin" membership="123"]
<div class="your-premium-content">
Your WPBakery block goes here!
</div>
[/mepr-show]
✅ This lets you hide/show specific rows, columns, or elements inside WPBakery.
2. Use a Content Protection Addon Plugin
If you're not comfortable with shortcodes or want visual controls, you can install a MemberPress + WPBakery Content Protection plugin (custom or third-party).
Some features to look for:
- Toggle protection on any WPBakery row or element
- Choose which membership levels can view it
- Easy UI integration with WPBakery
Note: As of now, MemberPress doesn’t officially offer a built-in WPBakery integration, so some custom development or third-party plugins may be needed for full visual editing support.
🛠️ How to Implement This on Your Site
- Install and activate MemberPress
- Build your page with WPBakery
- Wrap sections using
[mepr-show]
shortcodes OR use a protection plugin
- Test with a non-member account to confirm content is hidden
👀 Pro Tips
- Use CSS classes to style your restricted content messages
- Create “teaser” content visible to everyone, and full content to members
- Combine with MemberPress Rules to protect entire pages if needed
🚀 Final Thoughts
Combining MemberPress and WPBakery gives you both beauty and control. With a little setup, you can offer an exclusive, premium experience your members will love.
