ParticipantEverything works absolutely perfectly for us – thank you!
I’m a newbie at WP, and Connections is a core part of our set up, and we are very conscious about keeping our site ‘clean’ with plugins/resources that are all top level and all work well together.
Right now we just have Avada Theme, WooCommerce, and Connections. What we are looking to do and would greatly appreciate your help/recommendations on is:
1) Can we integrate Connections with WooCommerce so that when a user buys access to a Directory Category from the frontend, it gives them access to that category directory (or multiple category directories if purchased) in their WooCommerce account ?
- If we need an addon or plugin to do this type of seemless purchase to account directory access, can you recommend any that ‘work well’ with Connections/Woocommerce for this type of situation ?
Thanks again for providing such a great resource and any help you can provide for the above would be really appreciated.

Keymaster@ steve
Technically I do not see any reason why WC and Connections could be not be integrated… but, that would have to be custom coded as there is no “out of box” solutions like you are asking for.
Benerally my recommendation is to use a membership plugin like Restrict Content Pro to manage membership payments and renewals. You would use their membership to give them access to the directory and perhaps access to add/edit their own entry. Using a membership plugin affords you greater opportunities to monetize your site thru membership benefits vs limited it to only being a directory entry benefit.
I hope this helps!
