Support for membership org wordpress plug-in aMember?


 

Hi, again with apologies if this is somewhere in the message threads or wiki (did searches but no luck), but does groups.io offer integration support for the membership software "aMember Professional". ?URL is below but I'm guessing this integration may already exist since aMember has been around a long time and is in fairly wide usage with non profits and other membership based groups to organize member data, transact membership fee joins and renewals and the like. ?

We use aMember for one of my groups and I'm keen to figure out if I can set up our aMember database to automatically direct add any new member in that database to our listserv here?

Thank you!

It's not one of the integrations available.? I had a quick look at their site and you might be able to get someone to write a custom script for it to at least create a file for adding members easily.? Possibly for removing members as well.

Along that line, you could also have someone create a program using the GIO API to interface between them.

You could also post a #suggestion on the beta group to have an integration added.

Very helpful, Duane. ?I will suggest on beta and, very likely over the next few weeks, get a script or program written. I'll also report back here once/if done so if anyone in the future has the same question, they'll know a member that went through it. ?Always game to pay forward.

Big thanks!

Barry


 

Looking into getting a customer script or using the GIO API and a question has come up. ?Am I correct that, from a terminology perspective, "members" are with premium/paid groups and "users" are used for the free groups? Or are they interchangeable terms? ?

Thanks again.

Barry

Anyone that has an account at GIO is a member, even if they're not in any groups.? User, member, and subscriber are sometimes used interchangeably, regardless of the type of group (paid/free), but on the site most references have now been changed to member for consistency.? There are a few places that haven't been updated yet.
