Hello thanks for the code, it works very well, but one question, how to build level pack with this? I mean level 1 for 5 posts, level 2 for 10 posts etc...

Thanks for great job i love your plugin

Hi

Yes I have the same need - any guidance appreciated.

Great plugin - thank you!

Hi there,

Where in this code is the number of allowed post per user being set?

Will I be able to get this add-on from Membership Pro website?
