Our Capture Name and Address for Free Levels or for Offsite Gateway Add On allows you to collect billing fields for a free level or for paid levels when using with an offsite payment gateway like PayPal Express.
This code recipe demonstrates how hide those additional billing fields for a specific Membership Level ID.
Paid Memberships Pro emails a membership invoice for all recurring or renewing membership subscriptions. This email is not sent after the initial membership checkout because all of the relevant invoice details are included in the Membership Confirmation email. If you’ve customized the Confirmation email and removed invoice details, you may want to send a separate invoice email using the recipe below.
Currency formatting varies from country to country. For example, the placement of a comma (“,”) or period (“.”) in a currency format can mean something completely different depending on what currency is being used. Our core plugin offers formatting for several built-in currencies, which you can specify on the Memberships > Payment Settings page, but what if your currency is not being properly represented?
This code recipe demonstrates how to use the pmpro_currencies filter to adjust the format to match your desired currency.
Do you offer three different payment options for the same membership access? This new code gist allows you to easily add a selection box to the checkout page.
The code example below shows you how to define level “groups”—levels that are related and should appear as payment plans on the membership checkout page.
Our Recurring Payment Email Reminder Add On allows you to notify members that their membership renewal payment is processing soon. This recipe shows you how to use the pmpro_upcoming_recurring_payment_reminder filter to modify when that notification is sent.
By default, the Recurring Payment Email Reminder Add On will send a notification 7 days prior to a member’s recurring payment date. In the example below, we are modifying that default to send the notification 14 days (or two weeks) prior to renewal. Annual plans may want to adjust this to 30 days prior (roughly 1 month) or another value that best fits the needs of your membership program.
Use the following code recipe to display a “Renew” link on the Membership Account page at your desired period before a member’s expiration date.
By default, when a member signs up for a membership level that has an expiration date, they will see a “Renew” link a certain number of days prior to their membership expiration date. When a member “Renews” their membership, the new period is automatically tacked on to the end of their existing membership level. The core plugin has built-in logic to determine when the “Renew” link appears based on the active member’s billing and expiration date settings.
If the member logs in to their membership account before this timeframe is triggered, they will instead see a “Change” link, allowing them to view current membership level offerings and change their membership level. This code recipe allows you to control exactly when the “Renew” link will appear for the member.

Give your customers the option to select a membership duration and offer a discount for a longer term. This is a great way to collect a larger up-front payment from members and offer an incentive to pay for membership in advance.
This code will add a “Membership Duration” dropdown field to your checkout page. Once selected, the member’s expiration date and initial payment amount will be updated accordingly.
In the code recipe, there is a 20% discount when selecting a 2-year membership duration and a 25% discount for selecting a 3-year membership duration. The code recipe serves as an example for what is possible, you can alter the recipe to remove the discount or adjust the discount to suit your business.
You will need to input the Level ID that you want this code recipe to apply to. Only select membership levels that are billed on a yearly basis otherwise this will conflict with other level billing periods. Add your Membership Level ID to 'levels' => array( 8 )
This code recipe requires the Register Helper Add On to be installed and activated. If you need help altering this code to suit your needs, feel free to get in touch with one of our Support Engineers on our Member Support Forum.
This code recipe adds a notification banner to remind members that their account will expire within 7 days—or any custom timeframe you would like. You can use the recipes with any WordPress theme, or specifically with a membership site using Memberlite.
By default, Paid Memberships Pro will send members an expiration email notice 7 days prior to their expiration date (by the way, if you want to add more email expiration warnings, see our Extra Expiration Warning Emails Add On).
This recipe adds an expiration warning directly on your site, reminding the logged in member that they must renew to maintain access. The banner will only be shown to a member that has an active membership level with an expiration date within the next 7 days. You won’t need to rely on email delivery, receipt, or that your member will actually read the message.
If a member decides to renew their membership by clicking the “Click here to renew membership” link, they will be redirected to the membership levels page. From here they can select their desired membership level and proceed to checkout. They will no longer see the message
This is a simple code recipe that will allow you to change the wording “Membership” to “Subscription” for Paid Memberships Pro.
Depending on where your target membership audience lives or the type and location of your business, the word “Subscription” might be more familiar than “Membership”. The code recipe below uses the WordPress gettext filter to translate the word “Membership” to “Subscription” throughout the Paid Memberships Pro Plugin.
If you would like to change the word “Membership” to something else, you can do so by editing the code of this recipe by replacing “Subscription” with your desired label. If you are a Paid Membership Pro Plus Member and need some help with this, please reach out to us on our Member Support Forums.
