TL;DR

I want to provide access to forums based on membership system, considering that an account might be a member of multiple programs, and accordingly should have access multiple forums

Full Question

I'm pretty new here, and I already like WPForo

I want to create a membership based forum access. For example, let's say that I have a membership site with three types of programs that are not mutually exclusive: "Teacher", "Coach", "Trainer". I want to give each of them access according to their subscription, considering the case that a member might have purchased more than one membership package

What I noticed is that a membership plugin can provide access by assigning a WP role, which maps to a User Group. The problem with that is that roles are mutually exclusive, so I can't assign multiple roles to an account

What is the possible way to solve that?

Hi @mustafamohsen,

You have three membership roles - "Teacher", "Coach", "Trainer". Are these roles connected/synchronized to WordPress Roles?

Hi @chris

Thank you

These are just examples. I don't have any of it set up yet, awaiting guidance

Kindly note that these are NOT mutually exclusive, in contrast to WP Roles
