Restrict Content Pro Site Creation

The Site Creation add-on for Restrict Content Pro allows WordPress administrators to offer complete websites to their clients, leveraging the power of the WordPress multisite installation. Developed by SolidWP (formerly iThemes), this add-on transforms your multisite network into a managed website selling business, where each member can create and manage their own subsite with full independence.

This add-on is aimed at agencies, developers, and digital entrepreneurs who want to monetize their WordPress multisite infrastructure. With Site Creation, you can set up membership levels that include the creation of a website for each subscriber, generating a recurring business model based on subscriptions.

Configuration is simple and intuitive. From the admin dashboard, in the Restrict > Site Creation section, you can customize the registration form fields, such as the subsite URL field title, site name, and description. You can also define the success page to which the member is redirected after completing their registration, whether it's the default page or the newly created subsite.

To activate the functionality, simply enable the Allow Subsite Creation option in at least one membership level. When a client selects a plan with this feature, they will see additional fields in the registration form to choose the URL, name, and description of their new site, with a real-time preview before confirming.

One of the most notable advantages is the automatic management of the site lifecycle. If a client's membership expires, their subsite is marked for deletion in the multisite network dashboard and all its content becomes inaccessible. When the client renews their subscription, the site is automatically reactivated with all its content intact, just as it was before expiration.

Additionally, if you have multiple membership levels enabled, your clients can subscribe to several plans simultaneously and manage multiple sites from a single account. Site creation fields are displayed during the registration of new memberships, keeping the process clean and hassle-free.

Site Creation integrates perfectly with the Restrict Content Pro ecosystem, including its payment gateways and member management system. It is a complete solution for those looking to offer WordPress sites as a service, with full control over the access, expiration, and reactivation of each subsite.
