The Member Menu allows your members to easily navigate the various products (protected pages and/or external links) to which they have access. Members who are logged in to their accounts can locate the Member Menu via the default floating Member Button as well as any Member Link options on your website:

Within the Member Menu, members will be able to access:

Your Account link (where members can manage their plans, profile, and billing information)
Available products (including protected pages and/or external links) to which the member has access

The Member Menu is on by default but is completely optional. If you do not wish to use the Member Menu, you'll need to be sure to set up site navigation for members somewhere else on your website.

How to use the Member Menu

To enable the Member Menu, simply add at least one protected page or external link to the menu. Then, the Member Menu will automatically appear for all logged-in members who have access to that content.

Enabling the Member Menu

Go to Products in your MemberSpace backend. If you are adding a new product, click Add Product on the left:

If you are adding an existing product to the Member Menu, click Edit next to the product you'd like to add:
Next to the locked page URL's click the three dot menu on the right to show more options.
Toggle the Member Menu on/off
Select a Title and Emoji (optional) to display in the menu
Click Update Now (if editing an existing product) or Add Now (if adding a new product) at the bottom to save your changes.

The Title and Emoji will display in the Member Menu. If you do not wish to use an emoji, you can select the No icon option in the page or link settings, and you'll see the emoji disappear beside the page or link title.

Please note, emojis will render differently on different devices.

Pages set to drip out access or become available on a specific day/time will display in the Member Menu at their designated time.

Adding mass-protected pages to the Member Menu

There is no limit to the number of pages or links you can include in the Member Menu. However, each page must be added as an individual protected page in your MemberSpace backend; mass-protected pages will not appear in the Member Menu. If you want to create a link to a collection of pages (i.e. a blog), you can protect the root page (i.e. /blog), add it to your Member Menu, and then link out to any subpages on that root webpage. You could also link to a specific category page by protecting that particular page and adding it to your Member Menu.

Adding Content Links to the Member Menu

Content Links can be added to the Member Menu as external links. You can also incorporate Content Links in your Member Menu by creating a page on your website to house all Content Links. From there, you can protect that webpage in your MemberSpace backend and add it to the Member Menu.

Disabling the Member Menu

To disable the Member Menu, simply remove all protected pages and external links from the menu. When there are no pages or links added to the Member Menu, it will not display. Instead, the default floating Member Button and any Member Link options on your site will open the account area.

Embedding the Member Menu on your website

If you add a Member Link embed somewhere on your website, the Member Menu will appear the same as it does when accessing it via the default floating Member Button or any other Member Link popups. The only difference is the Member Menu will be embedded on the website as opposed to opening in a popup.

Changing the look & feel of the Member Menu

Styling options for the Member Menu are available within the look & feel editor.

Change the position of the Member Menu

You can choose to display the Member Menu in the Bottom Right, Bottom Left, Top Right, and Top Left. Position changes for the Member Menu are available within the look & feel editor.

The Member Button does not need to be enabled in order to edit the position of the Member Menu. When the menu is opened via another Member Link, the selected position will be reflected.
