LifterLMS Integration

PMPro now seamlessly integrates with one of the best LMS plugins, LifterLMS, making the setup process between the two plugins smooth and straightforward. You can now run Paid Memberships Pro and LifterLMS in a compatibility mode, which lets PMPro handle all checkouts, memberships, restrictions, and user fields.

Page Builder Compatibility Improvements

Whether you are using Elementor or Divi, you can now enable the “no access” messages restricted content, ensuring that users are always well-informed.

Reducing Admin Notifications and Improving the Admin Experience

Admin users will appreciate a thoughtful change on the dashboard. On their first visit to a PMPro dashboard page, non-security notification banners will be delayed by a week, reducing the initial information overload.

Additionally, for better data analysis, the “Active Members Per Level” metric has been refined to exclude deleted users, and new capabilities have been introduced to aid in exporting various report data.

Improved Compatibility with BuddyPress and BuddyBoss

v2.12 now terminates subscriptions when a user deletes their account via BuddyPress or BuddyBoss platforms. This ensures that membership management remains streamlined and accurate.

Continued Focus on Accessibility

We have updated the headings on the Membership Account page to use h2 level tags, improving the overall heading hierarchy for accessibility.

In conclusion, PMPro v2.12 aims to streamline the user experience and reduce friction in membership management. With better integration options, refined user interfaces, and critical bug fixes, this update ensures your membership site runs smoother than ever. Update today and elevate your member’s experience!
