  1. Are you using a plugin to manage your members or are you using the built in user system that comes with WordPress?

  2. I recently did a site that is similar to what you need. The first thing is to have a membership plugin, specially one that integrates with your page builder or theme, that takes care of the member management.

    The setup is something like this:

    Have your membership (or membership levels), then set the permissions of the site to have your public facing pages (home, contact, membership info) and your private pages (member’s only content and sections).

    Have the membership plugin manage the access to the private pages/sections to only active members with the subscription. If you have hybrid parts, the page builder integration comes handy to have conditional display/access.

    And that’s it. If your user is in the membership plan active, they have access. If not, they will only see the public pages (or anything else you say that the inactive members can see).

  3. Someone is going to have to manage the users. Especially as they leave.

    I built a system for a realtor group that uses the standard WP user system for this. Needed Metabox to add additional fields, but a non-technical person has a form to send invites via email as people join and just goes into the users screen to trash them when they leave. All info for the profiles falls on the users.
