Membership access to all visitors from an IP address

I am working on a journal website and would like to provide IP access to users in the Library i.e. all the visitor from a particular IP will have access to a particular access level without the need for login once the IP is registered. Is there any way I can do this like the Restricted Site Access plugin feature. The Membership plugin is conflicting with the Restricted Site Access plugin. I really love the Membership plugin and would like to use it.

    Hi @Chicago-Kent,

    Welcome to wpmudev. Hope you’re well?

    Membership plugin unfortunately doesn’t have any functions for dealing with IP address access, it pretty much protects content based on the users subscription/membership level.

    When you say conflicting, how exactly do you mean?

    Have you looked at the Protected Content plugin too, this does the same as membership pretty much, but does it differently & is a lot more easier to configure and setup. That might be a better option & possibly might not conflict with the other plugin, though it still doesn’t have IP based restrictions either. https://wpmudev.com/project/protected-content/#usage

    Hope this helps
