Yes, Webflow's Membership Beta feature allows for showing or hiding specific sections of an article based on the membership type of the user. This feature is particularly useful for creating gated content or personalized experiences for members with different subscription levels or membership types. Here's how you can achieve this in Webflow:

  1. Set up membership types: Before you can show or hide sections based on membership types, you need to define the different membership types and assign them to your users. In Webflow, you can create membership plans and assign them to users based on their subscription level or membership type.

  2. Create conditional visibility settings: Once you have set up your membership types, you can then use conditional visibility settings to control which sections of an article are displayed to different membership types. To do this, select the section you want to show or hide based on membership, and in the Element Settings panel, click on the "Display" dropdown. Choose "Visibility" and select the membership type(s) that should be able to see the section.

  3. Customize the experience: You can further enhance the experience for different membership types by using conditional visibility settings for other elements like buttons, images, or links. For example, you can show a specific CTA button only to users with a higher membership level, while hiding it for others.

  4. Test and preview: To ensure that your conditional visibility settings are working as expected, it's always a good idea to preview and test your website. Webflow's preview mode allows you to see how the website will appear to different membership types, helping you catch any issues or inconsistencies.

By utilizing Webflow's Membership Beta feature and conditional visibility settings, you can create a personalized and tailored experience for your users based on their membership type. This not only helps you provide valuable content to your members but also adds an element of exclusivity and customization to your website.
