Tip: MemberPress page protection
--------------------------------
Use MemberPress Rules to protect /autopilot/, /rescue-mode/, and /my-plans/ for members only.
Keep /pricing/ public.

PRICING PAGE TEMPLATE (NEW)
- This theme includes a ready-made Pricing page template.
- WP Admin → Pages → Add New → Title: Pricing → Page Attributes → Template: "Pricing (Panic-to-Plate)"
- Publish, then set your menu link to /pricing/

CHECKOUT BUTTONS (IMPORTANT)
The Pricing template links to these pages by default:
- /join-basic/
- /join-rescue/

Create those two pages and place your MemberPress checkout/purchase content on them.
Then the Pricing page buttons will work automatically.
