For example, you’re selling subscriptions for online courses on Site A using WooCommerce and enrolling customers into a membership program on Site B. At the same time, you want to keep track of your customers using a tool on Site C.
Now, why would you want multiple websites?
Well, there are some very good reasons:
Design
When it comes to designing your website, it’s essential to consider its purpose. For instance, an online store and a learning site have different needs.
An online store should focus on a visually appealing and user-friendly interface, professional appeal of the banners and pop-ups, while a learning site may require a different design approach to cater to its educational goals.
Finding the right balance in visual elements, such as color schemes and fonts, plays a crucial role in creating an engaging user experience. Utilizing a versatile tool like a logo maker can further enhance your website’s identity and brand presence.
Speed
The speed of your website is crucial. Overloading your site with numerous plugins can slow it down. It’s important to strike a balance between functionality and performance to ensure a seamless user experience.
User Experience
Speaking of user experience, keeping things organized can greatly enhance navigation.
When content is logically categorized and easy to locate, visitors can quickly find what they’re looking for. By prioritizing ease of use in your design, you can create an engaging and efficient online environment tailored to your specific audience.
So, there are some good reasons for having multiple sites. But here’s the challenge: managing all your websites and syncing information between them manually can be time-consuming.
For example, when someone buys something on your WooCommerce store, you might want to automatically sign them up for a course on your learning site.
Doing all this by hand takes a lot of time and isn’t very efficient.
Doing everything manually might look a little something like this:
- You have to watch your store for each sale.
- When a sale happens, you go to your course site and create a user account with the same details as the customer used for making the purchase.
- You add them to the right course.
- Finally, you send the customer their login information through email or a message.
That’s a lot of work, right?
And that’s just for one sale. Imagine doing this for 20 sales a day – it’s a big job!
But what if we tell you if there’s a simple way? A really simple way where you don’t even have to lift a finger to share logins from one site to another?
How about a process where you don’t have to do anything to handle all these tasks?
It’s as simple as someone making a purchase on a WooCommerce site and being automatically added as a student on your LearnDash site.
Cool, right? Well, it’s possible with a very cool visual automation builder called – SureTriggers!
SureTriggers helps you connect multiple WordPress sites with each other and automate repetitive tasks.
Like sending order confirmation messages on WhatsApp after someone makes a purchase from your WooCommerce store, and then automatically adding the customer to your CRM tool.
In this article, we’ll delve deeper into SureTriggers and demonstrate how you can effortlessly share logins from one site to another using the user-friendly Visual Automation Builder.
Why Create Users Between Multiple WordPress Sites?
If you have several business websites, it’s important to make things easy for your customers.
For example, if you’re a business coach who sells courses, you might have different websites for different purposes.
You could have:
- A portfolio website for showcasing your work.
- An online store for selling your courses or services.
- A learning website where people can access the courses they purchase from your store.
- A community website where your audience can connect with each other. It can be created with plugins like BuddyBoss.
Now, when someone buys a course from your online store, you might want them to automatically have access to the course on the course website platform. And then, you’d like them to be part of your community site and use all its features.
So to make this happen smoothly, you’ll need to create user accounts on all these websites. This way, your customers can access everything you have to offer.
Different Ways To Share Logins Between Multiple WordPress Sites
Let’s talk about simple ways to share user login info between different WordPress sites. This way, you can easily create user accounts on multiple sites.
You can do this manually or use a handy tool like SureTriggers to do it automatically.
Doing It Manually
One way is to create and share logins by hand.
Here’s how:
- Retrieve the user’s login credentials from the source WordPress site.
- Navigate to the target WordPress site.
- Create a new user account on the target site by manually entering essential user information, including the username, email, and password.
- Send the login details to the user via email.
This approach is fine if you do not have to create a lot of users. But if you have to create a lot of users on different sites, you will be spending most of your time creating users and typing emails, instead of building strategies to grow your business.
Using Automation Tools Like SureTriggers
If you don’t want to create logins manually, you can make life easier with SureTriggers. It’s a tool that automates all manner of repetitive tasks.
SureTriggers links up with your WordPress sites and can share data between them and perform actions across them.

- You set up some rules for SureTriggers to follow.
- When someone creates an account on one site, SureTriggers automatically creates accounts on other sites you pick.
It makes sure everything is done right every time.

How Does Automation Work in SureTriggers?
Automation in SureTriggers works on the concept of triggers and actions.
Triggers are the events that start your automation. For example, a contact form being filled, or a new post being published on your site.
Actions are what happens after the trigger event, like a chain reaction. So, in our example, an action could be making a Twitter post mentioning your new article, or sending a message on Slack when you receive a message from your contact form.
One complete set of triggers and actions is called a Workflow. Like creating a Twitter post automatically when you publish a new article on WordPress.
