In short
Every page and content entry has a Who can view setting: Everyone (Public), Logged-in customers only, or Specific roles only. A visitor without access sees an Access Required page offering Sign In and Create Account, and you manage member roles and invitations under Members.
The problem it solves
Sharing recipes, rates or class notes with members only usually means a separate membership site and a second login for your customers.
How it works
4 steps, start to finish

Your storefront has its own sign in, register and password reset pages for them.
In detail
What members area does for you
-
Three access levels
Public, signed in customers, or specific roles, per page and per entry.
-
Roles
Create roles such as Gold or Staff and set one as the default for new sign ups.
-
Invitations
Invite members by email; they show as Pending Invite until they accept.
-
Approval
Sign ups can wait in Pending Approval until you let them in.
-
A clear way in
Access Required offers Sign In, Create Account and a way back home.
-
An Access Required page asking them to sign in, with Sign In and Create Account buttons, or a message that the content needs specific access.
-
Yes. Content entries have the same Who can view this content setting as pages.
-
No. Members are your storefront customers, signing in on your own store.
