How Do I Use Memberstack With Webflow?

If you’re looking to add authentication and membership functionality to your Webflow website, Memberstack is a powerful tool that can help you achieve that. In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through the process of integrating Memberstack with Webflow, enabling you to create and manage members on your site.

Step 1: Sign up for Memberstack

To get started, head over to the Memberstack website and sign up for an account. Memberstack offers a free plan as well as paid plans with additional features. Once you’ve signed up, log in to your account.

Step 2: Connect Memberstack with Webflow

Next, we need to connect Memberstack with our Webflow project. To do this:

  1. Step 1: In your Memberstack dashboard, click on the “Projects” tab.
  2. Step 2: Click on the “New Project” button and give your project a name.
  3. Step 3: Copy the generated API key for your project.
  4. Step 4: Open your Webflow project in the Designer.
  5. Step 5: Go to the Project Settings by clicking on the gear icon in the left panel.
  6. Step 6: Select the Integrations tab and scroll down until you find “MemberStack”.
  7. Step 7: Paste your API key into the designated field.
  8. Step 8: Click “Enable MemberStack”.

Once you’ve completed these steps, Memberstack should be successfully connected to your Webflow project.

Step 3: Create Membership Plans

Now that Memberstack is integrated with Webflow, we can start creating membership plans. These plans will determine the access and privileges your members will have on your site.

To create a membership plan:

  1. Step 1: In your Memberstack dashboard, go to the “Memberships” tab.
  2. Step 2: Click on the “New Membership” button.
  3. Step 3: Give your membership plan a name, set the price (if applicable), and define any additional features or restrictions for this plan.

Repeat this process for all the membership tiers you want to offer on your website. Once you’ve created all the necessary plans, we can move on to integrating them with your Webflow site.

Step 4: Add Membership Elements to Your Webflow Site

Now it’s time to add the necessary elements to your Webflow site to enable membership functionality. Memberstack provides several elements that you can use:

  • Invisible login form: This element allows users to log in without showing a visible form on your site.
  • Invisible signup form: Similar to the login form, this element enables users to sign up without displaying a visible form.
  • Edit profile button/link: This element allows members to edit their profile information.
  • Logout button/link: Clicking this element will log out the current member.
  • Show/hide elements: These elements allow you to show or hide content based on a member’s subscription status or other criteria.

To add these elements to your Webflow site, follow these steps:

  1. Step 1: In your Webflow Designer, open the page where you want to add the Memberstack element.
  2. Step 2: Drag and drop the desired Memberstack element from the Add Panel onto your canvas.
  3. Step 3: Customize the element’s appearance and functionality using the options provided by Memberstack.

Repeat this process for all the required membership elements on your site. Once added, you can style and position them as needed using Webflow’s design tools.

Step 5: Test Your Membership Functionality

Now that everything is set up, it’s important to thoroughly test your membership functionality to ensure everything is working as expected. Here are a few key areas to test:

  • User registration and login: Test both new user registration and existing user login processes.
  • User access permissions: Verify that members can access restricted content based on their subscription level.
  • Edit profile and logout functionality: Ensure that members can edit their profile information and successfully log out when needed.

By testing these aspects, you can identify any potential issues or improvements needed in your setup.

In Conclusion

Integrating Memberstack with Webflow allows you to create a seamless and secure membership experience on your website. By following the steps outlined in this tutorial, you can effectively set up and manage membership plans, add membership elements to your site, and test your membership functionality. With Memberstack and Webflow working together, you can provide your users with a personalized and engaging experience.
