Divi WordPress Membership Site Setup

A new membership website needs to be built on WordPress, styled with Divi, and powered by Gravity Forms. The entire site revolves around one paid membership level that unlocks exclusive articles and blog-style content.

Core requirements
• Structure a single-level membership system, integrating Gravity Forms for sign-up, payment, and account management.
• Design a clean member dashboard in Divi that immediately surfaces the latest articles and any downloadable resources I upload.
• Configure a secure area for those downloads (PDFs, guides, etc.) and make sure only logged-in members can access them.
• Set up post and page restrictions so non-members see teaser excerpts while members see full content.
• Provide clear documentation or a brief video walkthrough so I can add future posts, resources, and users on my own.

Everything should be lightweight, fast-loading, and easy to maintain without additional plugins unless absolutely necessary. Gravity Forms, Divi Theme Builder, and standard WordPress tools should cover most of the work.

The project is considered complete once a test member can join, pay, log in, land on the dashboard, read an exclusive article, and download a file without encountering permission issues.
