Members only chat / community

Site URL: https://www.ghoulsmagazine.com

Hello,

my website https://www.ghoulsmagazine.com

has a members area. As part of the paid membership, i’d like to offer users access to a community / chat service, where people can chat in different groups but also 1 to 1.

Could anybody please recommend a platform that integrates well with Squarespace and which will be able to accommodate this?

Thank you so much for your help!

did you ever get an answer about this? I'm trying to do the same and can't figure it out!

Would also love a response to this! Having a community section in the members are for chatting amongst the group would be a big feature that would help

I am thinking of using the blog feature to have guided chats between members… they couldn’t start their own, but could easily highjack the directed conversation. 
I have only just begun designing my members area so haven’t checked how this work. Has anyone tried the blog function to do this?

I’ve just heard of MemberSpace. Might be an option that apparently integrates with Squarespace sites.

I think you're on to something.

This is exactly what I've been looking for, i think. Do you know anyone actively using MemberSpace? Appears like a simple integration, but I'm curious if its as easy as it appears.

@_SandA I was just doing a few general searches. There are plenty of reviews out there. It seems there is generally positive feedback on memberspace. I don't know anyone personally using it.

Has anyone used discourse?
