The budget is slim so plugins with an existing theme is what I'm hoping for but still need to customize to make it my "own".
Hi there, I also use WordPress and have a good membership plugin, but you said that you wanted to do it with existing plugins.
One way to do it without new plugins is to use one of the existing user roles like "Contributor" and set your WordPress to default to that role and then check off "Anyone can register" in your WordPress general settings.
I can always help you with this ;)
