For a long time, the most practical way to do that was a Facebook group or a similar social platform. It made perfect sense \u2013 it was the \u201ceasy button\u201d to get a community off the ground, and it was a great primeira etapa<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I\u2019ve been thinking a lot about what happens as that community grows.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those public platforms have become incredibly loud<\/em>. That safe space you worked so hard to build now feels jumbled, forced to compete with ads, endless scrolling, and distracting, often negative, public arguments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s hard to foster real connection and vulnerability in a place that feels so chaotic. And it\u2019s not your fault; it\u2019s just the nature of those platforms. They were never designed<\/em> for this kind of focused, private support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where I want to suggest a better way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What if you could take all that positive energy and move it into a true<\/em> home? A private, professional, and quiet space on your own WordPress site, where voc\u00ea<\/strong> control the experience from top to bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is what I want to explore with you today. It\u2019s a shift in how we think about building community, and it\u2019s all made possible by a new, fully integrated part of MemberPress called ClubSuite\u2122<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to show you how ClubSuite\u2122<\/a><\/strong><\/strong> can become the new heart of your support group, using its ClubDirectory\u2122<\/strong> to help members find each other and ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong> and ClubConnect\u2122 to give them that truly private, safe space to talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>What Makes a Successful Online<\/em> Support Group?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s quickly talk about what a bem-sucedido<\/em> online support group actually needs to thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From my experience, it\u2019s not about having a million features. It really comes down to three core essentials that are almost impossible to get from that jumbled setup on public social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
A Truly Private Space<\/strong>: This is the absolute foundation. Your members deve<\/em> feel safe. They need to know, without a doubt, that their conversations are 100% private and protected. <\/em><\/strong>

This means no public access, no search engine indexing, and no data-mining algorithms. It\u2019s a secure \u201cmembers-only\u201d environment where vulnerability is protected.
<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Real, Human Connectio<\/strong>n: Support comes from other pessoas<\/em>, not faceless usernames. A successful group moves beyond a simple, anonymous \u201cmember list\u201d and gives people a way to see who else is in the community.

This means having member profiles where people can share who they are, find peers, or look for accountability partners who \u201cget it.\u201d
<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Safe, Focused Discussions<\/strong>: Finally, you need a space for the actual support to happen. A single, chaotic feed where every topic gets mixed together just doesn\u2019t work.

A great support hub provides organised, moderated<\/em> spaces for specific topics. This allows for positive, focused conversations, free from the noise, ads, and negativity of the public internet.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
A private space, real connection, and safe discussions. That\u2019s the blueprint.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
The old model of using a public social media group fails because it breaks all three of these rules. The novo<\/em> model, which I\u2019m about to show you, is how you can finally build this the right way, right on your own site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>How to Start a Membership Site for Support Groups<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Okay, so now we know o que<\/em> makes a successful online support group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, I want to show you the step-by-step process for building a site that delivers on all three. Here is the practical path to bringing that vision to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>Step 1: Set Up Your Foundation (WordPress + MemberPress)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
This is where we build the secure site and set up the \u201cmembers-only\u201d access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Before you can build a community, you need a platform that you own and control<\/strong>. This is the most important step for guaranteeing privacy and safety for your members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your foundation starts with WordPress<\/strong>. It\u2019s the most popular and flexible platform for building a site that can grow with your community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By itself, a new WordPress<\/strong> site is public. The crucial change happens when you install our MemberPress<\/a><\/strong> plugin. This is the tool that transforms your open site into a secure, private, \u201cmembers-only\u201d area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you install MemberPress<\/strong>, you\u2019ll do two simple things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Create a \u201cMembership<\/a>\u201c:<\/strong> This is the product your members will sign up for. You can name it anything, like \u201cCommunity Access\u201d or \u201cSupport Group Member.\u201d You can make it free or charge a fee for it.
<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Set Up \u201cAccess Rules\u201d<\/a>:<\/strong> This is the most important part. You\u2019ll create a simple rule that says, \u201cOnly people who have the \u2018Community Access\u2019 membership can see these specific pages.\u201d You can apply this rule to your site inteiro<\/em> or just to the pages where your community will live.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
With just those two actions, you\u2019ve created a secure, private foundation. The public can no longer see your protected content, and you are in complete control of who gets in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now that your site is secure, we can start adding the community features inside<\/em> that protected area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Create a Private Member Directory with ClubDirectory\u2122<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A support group is all about conex\u00e3o<\/em>. The problem is that in a standard private site, your members are all isolated. They have no way of knowing who else is there with them, which can make them feel just as alone as they did before they joined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We need a way for them to find each other<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is where a really powerful tool called ClubDirectory\u2122<\/strong> comes in. It\u2019s part of a new add-on for MemberPress<\/strong> called ClubSuite<\/a>\u2122<\/strong>, and it\u2019s designed to solve this exact problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
<\/iframe><\/div><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\nIn simple terms, ClubDirectory\u2122<\/strong> lets you add a professional, searchable member directory right inside the private area of your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"390\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ClubDirectory-example.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76545\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ClubDirectory-example.jpg 390w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ClubDirectory-example-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ClubDirectory-example-50x38.jpg 50w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ClubDirectory-example-221x170.jpg 221w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/ClubDirectory-example-156x120.jpg 156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 390px) 100vw, 390px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s like a private, internal \u201cphone book\u201d for your community. For support groups it\u2019s ideal. It helps members feel like they\u2019re part of a real community<\/em> of people, not just subscribers to a website.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHere\u2019s what it allows you to do:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Enable Member Profiles:<\/strong> Instead of just being an email address, members can create their own profiles with a photo, a bio, and other information. This is so important for building trust and letting people show who they are. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Help Members Find Each Other:<\/strong> The directory is fully searchable. This is a practical, valuable feature for your members. They can look for an accountability partner, find other members in their same city, or connect with someone who shares a specific goal. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You Keep Full Control:<\/strong> The best part is that you, as the site owner, control all the privacy settings. You decide what information is shown, who gets to see the directory, and who appears in it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nBy adding a directory, you\u2019ve given your members a safe way to connect. Now that they can find each other, we need to give them a safe place to talk<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Build Safe Discussion Groups with ClubCircles\u2122 <\/h3>\n\n\n\nWith a directory in place, we\u2019ll now create the actual<\/em> safe spaces for conversation using moderated, topic-based forums.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIn Step 2, we gave members a way to encontrar<\/em> each other with ClubDirectory\u2122<\/strong>. Now, we need to give them a safe and organised place to talk<\/em> to each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis brings us to the second part of the ClubSuite\u2122<\/strong> add-on, a great tool called ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt is designed to create private, modern, and easy-to-use discussion forums right inside<\/em> seu MemberPress<\/strong> site.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis is the perfect alternative to a single, chaotic social media feed. Instead of one giant \u201cwall\u201d where every topic gets mixed together, ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong> lets you create multiple, focused<\/em> discussion groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor a support group, this is ideal. For example, you could easily create separate, private groups for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A \u201cWelcome & Introductions\u201d group<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A \u201cWeekly Check-in\u201d group<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A \u201cSeeking Advice\u201d group<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A \u201cShare Your Wins\u201d group<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nThis is where the \u201csafe space\u201d idea really comes to life. Because these discussion groups are built by you<\/em> em your site<\/em>, you are in complete control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ClubCircles%E2%84%A2-Support-Group-Example-Screenshot.png\" alt=\"ClubCircles\u2122 Support Group Example Screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-80356\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\nHere\u2019s what makes this so effective for a support group:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You Set the Tone:<\/strong> The tool gives voc\u00ea<\/em> the moderation controls to guide the conversation, remove negative posts, and keep the environment positive and supportive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s Easy for Members:<\/strong> It\u2019s designed to be simple and intuitive. Your members can post updates, reply in threads, and follow topics without the learning curve of a complex, old-school forum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s Fully Private & Integrated:<\/strong> Porque ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong> runs inside your MemberPress<\/strong> site, all these conversations are 100% protected and only visible to your logged-in members.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nBy combining MemberPress<\/strong> (for privacy), ClubDirectory\u2122<\/strong> (for connection), and ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong> (for conversation), you have now built a complete, self-contained community hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Connect Members One-to-One with ClubConnect\u2122<\/h3>\n\n\n\nThere\u2019s one more layer of connection that makes a support group really work: the ability for two members to talk privately, just between themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSomeone might find a potential accountability partner through the directory, feel inspired by their post in ClubCircles\u2122, and then want to reach out directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWithout a way to do that privately, that connection just\u2026 doesn\u2019t happen. Or worse, it spills into a public channel where it doesn\u2019t belong.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThat\u2019s exactly what ClubConnect\u2122<\/strong> is built for. It\u2019s the third piece of the ClubSuite\u2122 add-on, and it adds private, one-to-one messaging directly inside your MemberPress site.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor a support group, this is a big deal. Here\u2019s why it matters:<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt keeps everything on your site.<\/strong> Without this, members resort to swapping personal phone numbers or moving to a separate app to keep in touch. That breaks the safe, contained environment you\u2019ve worked hard to create. ClubConnect\u2122 keeps those conversations where they belong \u2013 inside your protected community.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt gives members real ownership of their connections.<\/strong> Group forums are great for shared support, but some conversations are just more personal. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIt adds a more spontaneous dimension to group interactions<\/strong>. People interact differently in forums than in group chats. Forum posts are more composed, generally longer, and often edited. Messages are shorter, sent in the moment, and are more conducive to ongoing interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1038\" height=\"687\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/ClubConnect-screenshot-of-a-support-group.svg\" alt=\"ClubConnect screenshot of a support group\" class=\"wp-image-80349\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\nClubConnect\u2122 gives members the space to have those exchanges privately, safely, and without leaving your platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWith ClubConnect\u2122 in place, your community now has a full range of connection options: a directory to find people, group circles to talk together, and private messaging to go deeper. That\u2019s a complete support ecosystem, all in one place, all under your control.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNow it\u2019s time to add your actual content and expertise into the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Add Your Support Content & Tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\nWith the community hub built, this is where you\u2019ll seamlessly add your resource library, <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/addons\/memberpress-courses\/\" title=\"\">Cursos do MemberPress<\/a><\/strong>ou <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/addons\/coachkit\/\" title=\"\">CoachKit<\/a>\u2122<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nUp to this point, we\u2019ve built a fantastic, secure hub for your members to connect with each other. Now, it\u2019s time to add the core \u201cvalue\u201d that only voc\u00ea<\/em> can provide: your content, your guidance, and your expertise.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis is how your site transforms from just a community forum into a complete support system<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe simplest way to start is by creating a \u201cResource Library.\u201d<\/strong> Gra\u00e7as ao MemberPress<\/strong> Access Rules we set up in Step 1, this is easy. You can create any number of private pages with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Support articles or blog posts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Downloadable worksheets or guides<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A library of helpful videos<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nThis is a great foundation. But what if you want to offer more structured, step-by-step guidance?<\/p>\n\n\n\nThis is where I highly recommend an add-on called Cursos do MemberPress<\/strong>. It\u2019s a tool that\u2019s built to work directly with MemberPress<\/strong> and lets you create professional, easy-to-follow online courses, complete with lessons and progress tracking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"responsive-video\"><iframe title=\"Destaque dos cursos MemberPress\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/phKJUcAbk_Q?feature=oembed&enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/span>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">ASSISTA >>> Cursos MemberPRESS Vis\u00e3o geral dos recursos<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nFor a support group, this is a perfect way to offer a \u201c30-Day Welcome Program\u201d or a \u201cFoundations of Healing\u201d course. The best part is that it\u2019s all in one place. Your members can go from a discussion in ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong> to the next lesson in their course without ever leaving your site.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFinally, many support groups are led by a coach, mentor, or therapist. If you plan to offer one-on-one help, you\u2019ll need a way to manage that.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor this, I recommend another tool called CoachKit\u2122<\/strong>. It\u2019s also designed to integrate perfectly with your MemberPress<\/strong> site. It gives you a central place to manage your coaching clients, set up milestones, handle appointments, and provide that personal, high-touch support \u2013 all from your WordPress<\/strong> dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"responsive-video\"><iframe title=\"Como criar e vender um programa de treinamento on-line no WordPress com o CoachKit\u2122 por MemberPress\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/geQ3dlugk6M?feature=oembed&enablejsapi=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/span>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Como configurar um programa de treinamento on-line no WordPress com o CoachKit\u2122<\/strong> (Tutorial completo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThis is how you create a truly unified system. Instead of having a course on one platform, a forum on another, and coaching on a third, everything lives under one roof.<\/p>\n\n\n\nNow, all that\u2019s left is to set up the \u201cfront door\u201d for people to join.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHere is the final step in our process, following all your guidelines.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6: Define Your Membership & Signup Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\nOkay, this is the most exciting part. We\u2019ve built the private site (Step 1), added the community features (Steps 2 & 3), and loaded in your valuable content (Step 4).<\/p>\n\n\n\nNow, decide how you want people to join.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThis is all handled right inside MemberPress<\/strong>. You\u2019ll start by creating your \u201cMembership.\u201d This is the \u201cpackage\u201d or \u201clevel\u201d that people will sign up for. For a support group, you have a lot of flexibility. For example, you could offer:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A Free \u201cCommunity Access\u201d Level:<\/strong> This is a great option if your main goal is to build a large, supportive community funded by other means (like donations or one-on-one coaching).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A Paid \u201cAll-Access\u201d Level:<\/strong> This could be a monthly or annual subscription that gives members access to everything: the ClubCircles\u2122<\/strong> discussions, the ClubDirectory\u2122<\/strong>, e<\/em> seu Cursos do MemberPress<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/blog\/why-you-should-offer-multiple-pricing-tiers-for-your-membership-site\/\" title=\"\">A \u201cTiered\u201d Model<\/a>:<\/strong> You could have a free level for just the discussion groups and a \u201cPremium\u201d level that adds your courses and CoachKit<\/strong> acesso.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nThe best part is that once you create a membership, MemberPress<\/strong> automatically does the heavy lifting for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt will generate a secure, private p\u00e1gina de registro<\/strong> for that membership. This one page handles everything:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It lets the new member create their username and <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/go\/lastpass\/\" title=\"Link de afiliado do Last Pass\" class=\"pretty-link-keyword\"rel=\"nofollow \" target=\"_blank\">senha<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it\u2019s a paid membership, it securely collects their payment information (it works with Stripe, PayPal, etc.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It automatically creates their new user account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nAll you have to in is put a \u201cJoin Now\u201d button on your homepage that links directly to this new registration page. That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\nYour new, private, and secure support system is officially open.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What If You\u2019re Feeling Overwhelmed?<\/h2>\n\n\n\nI\u2019ve just walked you through a lot of steps. And if you\u2019re looking at this list and thinking, \u201cThis is exactly what I want, but I am n\u00e3o<\/em> a technical person,\u201d I want you to know that\u2019s completely normal.<\/p>\n\n\n\nYour passion is (and should be!) running your support group and helping your members, not worrying about plugins, settings, and web design.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIf that\u2019s how you feel, please don\u2019t let the technical side stop you from building your vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\nO MemberPress<\/strong> team offers a service called <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/dfy-services\/\" title=\"\">DFY (Done For You)<\/a><\/strong>.

We\u2019ve been piecing our communities together with disconnected tools, hosting our most vulnerable conversations on loud, public, and hostile social media feeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\nIt\u2019s time to stop doing that and start using tools that work (MemberPress + ClubSuite\u2122).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nWith these tools, you can finally build it in a place you own, in a way that truly protects and serves your members.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAgora I\u2019m curious: What kind of support group are you dreaming of building? Please share your ideas or any questions you have in the comments below \u2013 I\u2019d love to help if I can.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you\u2019re feeling inspired and ready to start building that true, private home for your members, the best place to start is by exploring MemberPress<\/strong> and the new ClubSuite\u2122<\/strong> Complementos.<\/p>\n\n\n\nYou can see all the <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/blog\/clubsuite-communities\/\" title=\"\">recursos<\/a> and get started right <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/plans\/pricing\/\" title=\"\">aqui<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"full-width-cta blue image-left\">\n\t<div class=\"full-width-cta-container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"full-width-ctaimage\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/themes\/memberpress-theme\/images\/Guy1.webp\" alt=\"caractere cta\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"485\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/themes\/memberpress-theme\/images\/transparent.gif 1w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/themes\/memberpress-theme\/images\/Guy1-mobile.webp 543w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/themes\/memberpress-theme\/images\/Guy1.webp 485w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 1px, (max-width: 1023px) 543px, 485px\">\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"full-width-ctatext\">\n\t\t\t<h3>Obtenha o MemberPress hoje mesmo!<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<div>Comece a ser pago pelo conte\u00fado que voc\u00ea cria.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"pricing-cta\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/plans\/pricing\/\" class=\"cta-button\">\n\t\t\t\t\tObtenha o MemberPress agora\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/themes\/memberpress-theme\/images\/long-arrow-right-white.svg\" class=\"arrow-red\" alt=\"seta\" width=\"20\" height=\"14\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/pt\/features\">Ver todos os recursos<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nThanks so much for reading.
