A third-party tool called FramerAuth now makes it possible to add authentication to your Framer website, which allows you to lock your content to members only.
Exciting news for Framer website creators! A third-party tool, Framer Auth, now enables you to add authentication features to your site. This means you can create exclusive member-only areas, offering sign-up, sign-in, and password recovery functionalities. It's a fantastic way to build a premium, gated content experience for your audience.
Creating a Member-Only Experience
Imagine building a Patreon-like website where users must become supporters to access exclusive content. Using Framer Auth, you can set up a seamless process where users sign up for a free trial, receive a license key, and upon purchase, activate their account. This process not only ensures secure access but also enhances user engagement with your content.
Setting Up FramerAuth
Initial Setup: After receiving an email invitation from Framer Auth, you start by naming your website and linking it to your Framer project.
Integration with Lemon Squeezy: To monetize your content, integrate with Lemon Squeezy, enabling you to set up payment options and manage subscriptions.
API Key Configuration: Ensure you're in the correct mode (test or live) when adding your Lemon Squeezy API key for a successful connection.
Product and Subscription Setup
Creating Products: In Lemon Squeezy, set up products with variants like annual or monthly subscriptions, including free trials and license keys.
Publishing Products: Once your product variants are set up, publish them and sync with Framer Auth for seamless user experience.
Implementing Framer Components
Adding Components: Utilize components like the sign-up form, sign-in form, and password reset form. Customize these components to match your site's design and functional requirements.
Using Overrides: Apply overrides for additional functionality like auto-filling license keys or conditional display based on user status (logged in/out).
Locking and Managing Content
Locking Pages: Easily lock pages in Framer to restrict access to members only. You can customize access based on different subscription plans.
User Account Management: Add features like managing subscriptions, displaying user names, and email addresses for a personalized touch.
