It could be a part of the original plugin and not require this additional plugin, but doing so would require more work, I suppose. The instructions are very clear when followed correctly. It does take a little work and knowledge of html to set the string properly, but they give you an example of the plugin documentation page. i.e. “Wishing to view this content? Why not Login or Join Us Now.” Although it would be nice to have a small example on the plugin interface page. But you simply replace the text and hyperlink data. This is where html knowledge is good to know. You are able to move faster, but even if you don’t have it, there is CLEAR documentation, which helped me a ton in the past. It’s a very great plugin to go along with their other Membership plugins which have not failed me all these years. My site is small, and I don’t have a need for much, but am thankful for the creators of this plugin. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3fbf2976559427d103a5cde7444af9ac1d7bd2f3315b3994fcdc5f636bc398bc? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-9048/)󠁿 [pedroduen](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pedrocslinhares/) January 24, 2022 1 reply Adorei este plugin.
