Why Build Membership Sites with Toolset

Even though there are many themes and plugins that offer « membership » functionality, when you build a site, you often discover that « nothing out there is doing exactly what I need ». This is where Toolset comes into the picture. With Toolset, you build the exact functionality that your site requires.

You have full control over the content types in the site. You control how content displays for both visitors and members. You control the registration flow and you can create custom « my account » sections for your site’s users.

Since Toolset lets you build everything yourself, there’s a learning curve. However, once you’ve mastered the tool, you save countless hours. Instead of using an endless list of plugins, add-ons and hacks, you’ll get everything from Toolset.
