Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records AJO Membership version 1.0 as active, updated 3mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
AJO Membership is a lightweight, secure, and straightforward plugin designed to turn your WordPress site into a basic membership portal without the bloat of massive membership plugins.
It allows you to restrict access to specific pages, posts, or entire URL paths directly from a simple settings dashboard. Non-registered users attempting to access protected content are automatically redirected to a custom link of your choosing.
The plugin also safely redirects non-administrative users away from the default WordPress dashboard ( wp-admin ), keeping your frontend pristine, and provides native WordPress-powered shortcodes to handle user authentication entirely on the frontend.
Features
Content Protection: Protect any URL or path (e.g., /premium-content/ ). Sub-pages are automatically protected.
Custom Redirects: Send unauthorized visitors to a specific landing page or your login page.
Dashboard Restriction: Automatically blocks non-administrators from accessing the WordPress backend dashboard, redirecting them to the homepage instead.
Frontend Profile Editor: Allow users to update their Name, Email, and Password directly from a frontend page.
Native Authentication: Uses WordPress’s core secure functions to handle logins, registrations, and password resets. No clunky third-party tables—just clean, native integration.
Included Shortcodes
Simply paste these shortcodes onto any page or post to display the respective forms:
[ajo_login] – Displays the standard login form. (Hides automatically if the user is already logged in).
[ajo_register] – Displays a straightforward registration form.
[ajo_password_reset] – Displays the lost password / reset request form.
[ajo_edit_profile] – Displays a secure frontend profile editor for logged-in users to update their name, email, and password.
