Advanced Developer Code Recipes

Paid Memberships Pro is built in way that developers can extend and customize the core functionality using a variety of available classes, action hooks, filter hooks, and native functions.

Customizing a PMPro Membership Site

Our blog features a popular article on customizing Paid Memberships Pro. In this guide, we detail how to create a unique site plugin that will hold all of the site’s customizations. This preserves your ability to update Paid Memberships Pro to the latest release without losing any changes that you have made.

Most of these articles share code recipes that our team and others share via GitHub Gists. There is a huge library of content available in these GitHub Gists that you can use for your customization or as an example method to use a specific function or hook.

For example, this is a search link that will query all gists that use the pmpro_checkout_level hook. This search link narrows your search to only gists created by our current or previous team members.

You can also perform your search through the main GitHub Gist search. This will locate any shared code using a hook or function name from PMPro or one of our Add Ons.
