WP-Members PayPal Subscriptions 0.9.9.1

The WP-Members PayPal Subscriptions extension received a minor update today.

This update resolves the following issues:

  • Updates the PayPal IPN URL. The previous URL is deprecated and although it still may work in certain situations, it generally is unstable and should no longer be used. This version corrects that problem permanently.
  • There is an issue in the previous version that causes a problem in “hybrid” installs – these are installations that utilize the core plugin’s membership features with WooCommerce, but also use the WP-Members PayPal extension separately. These are rare, but the update fixes this as a general fix.
  • Admin settings update is improved.

Remove username from registration

There is often the question of using an email for a username. In WordPress, there is never a good reason to do this because the core WP schema does not allow for it. This post covers why you should work within the existing schema, how you can do that, and provides simple code snippets you can use to customize the WP-Members login and registration forms to handle it.

How to properly load (and unload) stylesheets

WP-Members comes packaged with a default stylesheet, which tries to be a generic as possible in order to look good in as many use-cases as possible. However, this may not be suitable in all instances. Ideally, in all cases, you would create a custom stylesheet that fits into your other style elements to match your existing theme.

WP-Members 3.5.2

WP-Members version 3.5.2 has been released with a number of bug fixes and improvements. Some of the bug fixes were reported by users, while a couple of others were bugs that no one noticed (or at least said anything about), but were found when testing the other bug fixes.

The code improvements came while I was working on debugging an exhausted memory issue for some users that I simply could not duplicate (at first). Once I figured out what that was, I was able to fix it, but some other code got improved along the way for a lighter overall plugin where possible.

WP-Members 3.5.1

WP-Members 3.5.0 was released last week as a major update. This version had substantial changes and improves features, options, security, and a host of other things. It further integrates with WooCommerce in ways that the previous builds did not. It allows direct control over what fields display in the registration form versus the profile update form without having to customize.

There were a few bugs in the original update. All reported bugs have been addressed and fixed, along with a couple that I found while addressing reported issues. All of those have been packaged into the 3.5.1 version which is now released.
