Hi team,

I am looking for your advice : is there a membership plugin that you would specifically recommend and that you know works really well with the paid version of your Virtue theme? Because that’s what I’m looking to set up currently.

I’m also currently looking at the Wishlist member plugin. But what I’m not clear about is how to best make mp3 file available to members. I want members to get access to mp3 files online, and be able to download them to their computers and smartphones.

I’m not sure if those mp3’s should be best hosted on a platform like SoundCloud (I’m not sure yet I’m understanding their technical possibilities for this correctly) or if the mp3 files should be uploaded to WP directly (sounds like a bad idea but not sure). I know for video’s, it’s recommended to host on Vimeo because they have a way to then embed the video on a protected page without giving the Vimeo url to users. But I’m not clear if SoundCloud or similar offers a similar set up for mp3 files. (I am also asking their helpdesk)

Do you have any recommendations regarding this potential set up, knowing it will be built on your Virtue theme…?
If this is way beyond your expertise, I would totally understand. I just thought I’d give it a shot.

Happy New Year!
