I think I figured out a work-around…

In Settings > General (in the WP Dashboard), I checked “Anyone can register” for the Membership option. Then using Robin Wilson’s awesome “Private Groups” plugin, I made the forum accessible ONLY to those who paid for my class.

Now all a user needs to do is sign-in to my website through Woocommerce, and click a link directing them to the private forum.

PHEW. I really didn’t want folks to sign in twice.

Thanks for your time, either way!

Kindly,
Sharon
