How to Create a Joomla Membership Site

Add Free or Paid Memberships to Joomla 1.5, using freely available components & plugins.

For webmasters on a budget Joomla has already proven a very powerful tool. With easy installation through fantastico, an unofficial estimate of Joomla websites is around 5.000.000.

A quick search using Yahoo of the Joomla footer tag ” Powered by Joomla! valid XHTML and CSS” gives 5,150,000 results proving that Joomla is not only a  free but a reliable & well supported C.M.S script.

Practically any requirement you may have from a content management site, Joomla can provide through numerous free extensions / modules / components, most very similar to the plugins used by WordPress.

Joomla membership sites can be created for free using a combination of these extensions.

But which extensions do you use & how do you configure them to work with payment processors etc. to turn Joomla into a fully functional e-commerce membership site?

To start you need to have an installation of Joomla 1.5, if your web host includes cpanel it is a simple matter of clicking the fantastico logo “smiley face” on cpanel under software / services.

Joomla 1.5 will be listed on the left hand side in Content Management, click the link & follow the on screen installation instructions.

Next download the Account Expiration Control, Component / Module & Plugin’s once downloaded & unzipped the file will include everything you need for your Joomla membership site.

Installing  A.E.C.

In Joomla Admin – Enable Legacy this is located in Extensions / Plugin Mgr

Upload & install A.E.C Component ( Extensions Install / Uninstall)

In Sequence upload & install the plugins – AEC Access, AEC Error, AEC Routing & AEC User

Under Settings / Hacks – Select Hacks & Commit Hacks lower right of screen.

Next download & install Docman ( Extensions / Install )

You now have all the required components installed to run your very first Joomla membership site!
