How to Redirect Users to Checkout or Add Listing After Buying a Membership

Ce contenu n’est pas encore disponible dans votre langue.

When you sell memberships in Listdom, users can pass through two important steps:

  • checkout
  • add listing

These are controlled by different parts of the membership flow. The package sends users to checkout, and Membership addon settings can redirect users to add listing after checkout. Membership

When to use this

Section titled “When to use this”

Use this guide when you want to:

  • send users to checkout after they choose a package
  • redirect users to add listing after successful purchase
  • understand how Purchase URL works
  • configure post-checkout membership flow

Before you start

Section titled “Before you start”

Before setting redirects, make sure:

  • Listdom is installed and active
  • Listdom Membership addon is installed and active Membership
  • your payment engine is configured
  • you already have at least one package connected to a valid payment plan or product

You will mainly work in:

  • WP Admin → Listdom → Memberships → Packages
  • WP Admin → Listdom → Settings → Add-ons → Memberships
  • Front end → Dashboard → Memberships
  • Front end → Add Listing flow

Understand the two redirect stages

Section titled “Understand the two redirect stages”

Stage 1: Package to checkout

Section titled “Stage 1: Package to checkout”

This happens when user clicks package Checkout button or opens package Purchase URL. Package is added to cart and user is sent to checkout.

Stage 2: Checkout to add listing

Section titled “Stage 2: Checkout to add listing”

This happens after checkout if Membership add-on Membership settings are configured to redirect automatically.

That means:

  • package settings control how purchase starts
  • Membership add-on Membership settings control what happens after checkout

Part 1: Send users to checkout

Section titled “Part 1: Send users to checkout”

Step 1: Open the package

Section titled “Step 1: Open the package”

Go to WP Admin → Listdom → Memberships → Packages.

  1. Open package.
  2. Go to Package Settings.
  3. Confirm package is connected to valid payment plan or product.

If no payment plan/product is connected, package cannot complete normal purchase flow.

Step 2: Copy Purchase URL

Section titled “Step 2: Copy Purchase URL”

At bottom of package settings, Listdom shows:

  • Package ID
  • Purchase URL

Use Purchase URL in:

  • pricing tables
  • buttons
  • landing pages
  • membership CTA sections

Step 3: What Purchase URL does

Section titled “Step 3: What Purchase URL does”

When user opens Purchase URL:

  1. package is added to cart via connected payment plan/product
  2. user is redirected to checkout

Step 4: Front-end Checkout button behavior

Section titled “Step 4: Front-end Checkout button behavior”

On front-end memberships screen, purchasable packages include Checkout button.

When user clicks Checkout:

  1. package is added to cart
  2. checkout action starts
  3. user is sent to checkout page

From user perspective, Checkout button and Purchase URL serve same purpose: start checkout for selected package.

Part 2: Redirect users to add listing after checkout

Section titled “Part 2: Redirect users to add listing after checkout”

Step 1: Open Membership add-on Membership settings

Section titled “Step 1: Open Membership add-on settings”

Go to WP Admin → Listdom → Settings → Add-ons → Memberships.

Step 2: Review Auto Order Complete

Section titled “Step 2: Review Auto Order Complete”

Find Auto Order Complete.

This option:

  • automatically marks order complete after checkout
  • controls availability of next redirect setting

If Auto Order Complete is disabled, add-listing redirect is not available in the same way.

Step 3: Enable Auto Order Complete (if needed)

Section titled “Step 3: Enable Auto Order Complete (if needed)”
  1. Enable Auto Order Complete.
  2. Save settings.

After this is enabled, add-listing redirect option appears.

Step 4: Enable Redirect to Add Listing Form

Section titled “Step 4: Enable Redirect to Add Listing Form”

After enabling Auto Order Complete, find Redirect to Add Listing Form.

  1. Enable Redirect to Add Listing Form.
  2. Save settings.

This redirects users to add listing automatically after checkout.

Important dependency

Section titled “Important dependency”

Redirect to Add Listing Form depends on Auto Order Complete.

  • If Auto Order Complete is enabled, redirect setting can be used.
  • If Auto Order Complete is disabled, redirect setting is not available in same flow.

What the end user will face

Section titled “What the end user will face”

Section titled “Scenario 1: User clicks Checkout or opens Purchase URL”
  • package is added to cart
  • user is sent to checkout

Scenario 2: User completes checkout and redirect is enabled

Section titled “Scenario 2: User completes checkout and redirect is enabled”

  • user gets direct listing submission access

Scenario 3: User completes checkout and redirect is disabled

Best setup for smooth purchase flow

Section titled “Best setup for smooth purchase flow”

If your goal is “buy membership then post listing immediately”:

  1. connect package to valid payment plan/product
  2. use Purchase URL or front-end Checkout button
  3. enable Auto Order Complete
  4. enable Redirect to Add Listing Form

For broader membership flow context, see How to Manage Memberships and Packages in Listdom.

Notes and limitations

Section titled “Notes and limitations”
  • Package Purchase URL and front-end Checkout button both send user to checkout.
  • Post-checkout add-listing redirect is configured in Membership add-on Membership settings, not package settings.
  • Redirect to Add Listing Form depends on Auto Order Complete.
  • If redirect is disabled, user follows default checkout completion behavior of selected engine.

FAQ

What sends users to checkout after choosing a package?

Package Checkout button and package Purchase URL both send users to checkout.

Where do I enable redirect to add listing form?
