If you're creating a membership site, you might want to allow your members to find and connect with each other through a member directory. It’s absolutely possible with WordPress — but there are a few important things to understand first!
📌 In this episode, Charly explains:
✅ The difference between a Directory Plugin and a Membership Plugin — and why they serve different (but complementary) purposes.
✅ How to integrate a directory into your membership site so only members can view or edit profiles.
✅ Key considerations — like privacy, profile data security, user permissions, and how searchable you want the directory to be.
✅ Why planning the member experience is critical before choosing any tools or setting up systems.
Adding a member directory can be a fantastic feature for community-building, but it needs thoughtful setup to protect your members and your site’s reputation.

Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
Your "Page Not Found" (404) page might be doing more harm than good — or at the very least, missing a chance to connect. In this episode, Charly explains how to turn that dead-end page into a warm welcome that builds trust and boosts engagement.
📌 You'll discover:
✅ AI tools sometimes generate fake links to your site
✅ How this affects your site's reputation and user experience
✅ What your 404 page should include beyond “Sorry, not found”
✅ Smart ways to turn lost visitors into warm leads
🔗 Whether you add a search bar, newsletter opt-in, or a chatbot, your 404 page can go from frustrating to functional - and help your site work harder for you.
