What’s new in Content Dripping 1.0.5

What it does
Giving new subscribers every piece of content on day one can be a lot to take in, and it leaves nothing to look forward to. This addon lets you spread access out over time instead. You build dripping sets that open posts, pages, custom post types or entire categories and taxonomies at intervals you choose, counted from each member's subscription start date. Once a set is configured, releases happen automatically, so you don't have to change access by hand as members progress.
The addon works inside the Paid Member Subscriptions plugin, which it requires, so scheduling sits alongside your existing membership plans and member management. It suits online courses, coaching programs and exclusive article libraries where content follows a sequence or where longer subscriptions should open more material. A shortcode lets you place a table of contents for any dripping set within your content, giving members a clear view of what is available and what is coming next.
Best for
- Online course creators releasing lessons in sequence
- Coaching programs with time-based content stages
- Membership sites offering exclusive articles over time
Features
Unlimited dripping sets
Create as many content-dripping sets as you need, each with its own schedule, so different programs or plans can release content on separate timelines.
Posts, pages and custom types
Schedule access to individual posts, pages and custom post types, choosing exactly which items members can reach at each stage of their subscription.
Category and taxonomy scheduling
Release entire categories or other taxonomies at once, which is handy when a module or topic contains many related posts.
Custom time intervals
Set your own intervals measured from each member's subscription start date, and content opens automatically when that member reaches the right point.
Table of contents shortcode
Embed a table of contents for a dripping set anywhere in your content with the pms-cd-contents-table shortcode, helping members navigate and track their progress.
Built into Paid Member Subscriptions
The addon runs within Paid Member Subscriptions, keeping content schedules and membership management together in one place on your site.
