Display The Date of Agreement in the Terms of Service Label at Membership Checkout

When a member agrees to your site’s Terms of Service, the date of their agreement is logged and stored for their user account. Adding today’s date directly into the label of the Terms of Service checkbox at checkout can provide an extra layer of clarity for both you and your members.

This code recipe uses the pmpro_tos_field_label filter to append today’s date to the Terms of Service label. The modified label will show like this:

I agree to the [title of your Terms of Service page] on [today’s date].
