Recreating the Required Pages and Forms for Simple Membership Plugin

When you install the simple membership plugin, it will create the following required pages for you automatically:

  • Login page (this is where users will go to log into the site)
  • Registration page (this where users fill in a form to register/create account)
  • Join Us Page (this is where a user goes to find out all your membership options)
  • Edit profile page (your members can go to this page to edit their details)
  • Password reset page (used for resetting a member’s password)

If you accidentally delete them then you can use the following steps to recreate the pages:

  • Go to the Settings -> Tools interface of the plugin.
  • Click on the “Re-create the Required Pages” button. This will create the pages for you (if needed).

After that, the required pages should be in place for the plugin to function correctly.

Manually Recreate the Required Pages

Using the above mentioned “tools” option is the better way to handle this. However, if you want to create the pages manually then you can use the following manual steps to create those pages.
