    I want to do two specific things.

    1) Protect a page to require people to give me their email in exchange for downloads (there are abut 13 on the page). I also want them to be able to come back to the page without having to re-register - so that means allowing them to login. Right?
    2) Sell a product with a bunch of downloads and access to a particular page. Ditto they should be able to login.

    I'm very frustrated understanding how to set up logins. I bought Woocommerce Memberships and Smart coupons for functionality I need for #2 above. Memberships will let me protect the page for requirement #1. I also own Gravity Forms and User Registration extension so signing people up isn't the problem.

    How /where do I enable them to log back in once a member?

    This must be easier than I'm making it because I can't find an answer. Initially I thought I could simply have a nice little login box in the upper right-hand corner. I see it everywhere and use it but I haven't figured out how that's done.

    Once upon a time a long, long time ago (2008?) I remember a login widget. I don't have such in my widget area.

    Thanks for help! My development site test.sharinghousing.com is protected. You can access with the psswd: tobias621. The live site is http://www.sharinghousing.com

    The WordPress login page is http://www.yourblog.com/wp-login.php. You need to provide a menu link to it or use a login plugin. I don't use Gravity Forms, but maybe they have a shortcode similar to the one Formidable Pro has [frm-login].
