Paid Memberships Pro is a WordPress Membership Plugin and provides a Support Community for Membership Sites. The plugin adds a new revenue source to your website. It is also flexible enough to fit the needs of almost all membership-based businesses.
We often get asked our recommendations for web hosts that support Paid Memberships Pro. More often than that we see issues that crop up with running Paid Memberships Pro on certain hosts and setups. We may expand this article in the future to make more specific recommendations, but in the meantime, here are the rules to follow.
We received a notice from Stripe that they are extending the length of their charge identifier from 17 characters to 27 characters.
This update will not affect your membership site running Paid Memberships Pro. We have confirmed that the database column that stores charge identifiers is already set to allow up to 32 characters.
Version 2.3.3 of Paid Memberships Pro is out with a handful of bug fixes, including a security patch. All users are advised to update as soon as possible.
The security issue involves a SQL injection vulnerability on the add/edit orders page in the WP dashboard. A user must be logged in as an administrator to launch the attack. We do not suspect that this vulnerability is being actively exploited. Even so, it is important to fix this issue since it could be used in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to do damage to your site.
Version 2.3 of Paid Memberships Pro introduces several new features that will not be configured after updating. This guide aims to highlight the settings you’ll need to update in order to take full advantage of new features and enhancements.
Version 2.3.2 of Paid Memberships Pro is out with a handful of bug fixes. Please update Paid Memberships Pro from the plugins page of your WordPress dashboard. You can also get the latest version of PMPro here or version 2.3.2 specifically here. The full list of updates is below.
Business is great. We crossed $3,000,000 in total sales recently. Last year we did $810,000 in revenue, a 23% growth over the previous year. —Jason Coleman

Your demo site includes sample settings, member data, a history of orders for reporting, and several feature-enhancing Add Ons. You’ll get a true experience for what it will be like to manage a Membership site on WordPress.
