    Hello,
    Thank you for the informative article. Please let me know if I’m over thinking. I have Paid Memberships Pro on my website to handle access levels to members-only digital content. However, I also want to have an option to pay per digital download for those who don’t care to subscribe for unlimited access. Would adding an eCommerce plugin conflict with the the account, checkout and other pages within PMP or will their be two separate account types to manage; members and pay per users?
    Any direction much appreciated.
    Thank You
