Let's go over how to allow your website visitors to sign up to access locked content without requiring a purchase.

Video Tutorial:

1. Disable "sign up requires license key"

On your settings page in the FramerAuth dashboard, disable the option "Signup requires License Key." This can also be done on the settings tab of the plugin.

2. Disable "License Key" on the sign up component

Go to your sign up component and disable the "License Key" option. This will now allow any visitor of your website to sign up for a free account.

3. Locking content

Now anyone can sign up for a free account on our website.

On pages, toggle to locked for any page that should be accessible to members only.

You can also apply some relevant overrides to your on-page content in Framer to lock it to members only.

Relevant Overrides

withLoggedOut

Apply this override to any element that you want shown to only users are not logged into your website. For example an "Sign Up Free" button would be shown to logged out users but once they've logged in it doesn't need to be shown anymore.

withLoggedIn

Opposite of withLoggedOut, withLoggedIn only shows the element in which it's applied to users who are logged into an account. This override can be used to display locked content.

withVariant

This override makes it possible to show one component variant to logged out users and another variant to logged in users. This is often used to show a "locked" variant to logged out users which encourages them to upgrade.
