Most membership plugins treat payments as the source of truth. Meta Membership is built around the membership cycle — so renewals, grace periods, and fixed annual expiry dates work the way your organisation actually expects. Designed with clubs, nonprofits, professional associations, and community groups in mind. It includes: * Stripe-based payments and renewals (via [Minimal Stripe Wrapper](https://wordpress.org/plugins/minimal-stripe-wrapper/)) * Three renewal modes: fixed expiry date, anniversary, or never expires * Fixed expiry with pro-rata fees for mid-year joiners * Configurable grace periods — members retain access while they renew * Registration policies: open, admin approval, or admin-only * Page, post, and menu access control by membership status * Built-in notifications for expiry reminders and admin alerts * CSV import and export — migrate in from another plugin without losing your data * Native MailPoet integration (via free Meta MailPoet add-on) Whether you need a simple signup flow or granular control over membership logic, Meta Membership is built to adapt — without the bloat.

Documentation at https://plugins.webworkz.nz ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/meta-membership/` 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Create a page and add the `[mime_dashboard]` shortcode — Meta Membership will detect it automatically 4. Go to **Meta Membership Settings** to configure defaults (General, Payments, Notifications, Member Meta Fields) 5. Create one or more Membership Types under **Membership > Membership Types** 6. Add the `[mime_registration type="mt-slug"]` shortcode to any page to enable a public registration form — replace mt-slug with your membership type slug (available via copy-to-clipboard in the Membership Types table) 7. Enable payment gateways in the Payments tab Note: Stripe payments require [Minimal Stripe Wrapper](https://wordpress.org/plugins/minimal-stripe-wrapper/) to be installed and configured separately. ## FAQ ### Is this plugin suitable for commercial use? Yes, absolutely. While it’s designed with clubs and not-for-profits in mind, it’s flexible enough for commercial sites as well. ### How is this different from other membership plugins? Most membership plugins determine membership status from payment records. Meta Membership uses the membership cycle as the source of truth — so grace periods, fixed expiry dates, and renewal behaviour work the way your organisation expects, regardless of payment history. ### Does this plugin handle fixed annual expiry dates? Yes. You can set a fixed expiry date (e.g. 1 April) that applies to all memberships of a given type, with configurable grace periods and optional pro-rata fees for members joining mid-year. ### Does this plugin support recurring payments? Not yet. Stripe-based recurring payments — where a card is charged automatically without member action — are on the roadmap. Meta Membership handles one-off payments for registration and renewal, supported by automated expiry notifications and grace periods that guide members through the renewal process at the right time. ### Can I migrate my existing members from another plugin? Yes. Meta Membership includes a CSV import tool that handles member records, membership types, expiry dates, registration status, renewal intent, and custom member fields. ### Can I extend or customise the member fields? Yes. Member profiles are stored in a dedicated database table, and custom fields can be defined with privacy controls, editability settings, and required flags. The plugin is extensible via actions and filters. ### Will my members need to reset their passwords after migrating to Meta Membership? No. Meta Membership is designed to work with existing WordPress user accounts. During member import, if an email address matches an existing WordPress user, that account is preserved and linked to the new membership record. Members can log in with their existing credentials immediately after migration — no password reset required. ### Does this work with MailPoet? Yes, via the free Meta MailPoet add-on, which syncs membership status and type to MailPoet lists automatically. No paid MailPoet tier required. ### Does this work with Ultimate Member? Meta Membership can coexist with Ultimate Member. A common setup is to use Ultimate Member for its member profile UX and directory features, while Meta Membership handles membership logic — with Ultimate Member’s own membership features disabled to avoid conflict. Role Sync Rules can be used to keep WP roles aligned with membership status for compatibility. ### Is this plugin multisite-compatible? Not yet tested with multisite. It should work on a per-site basis, but has not been formally validated in a network setup. ## Reviews ഈ പ്ലഗിന് റിവ്യൂകൾ ഒന്നുമില്ല. ## Contributors & Developers “Meta Membership” is open source software.
