Theultimate user profile & membership plugin for WordPress. The plugin makes it a breeze for users to sign-up and become members of your website. The plugin allows you to add beautiful user profiles to your site and is designed for creating advanced online communities and membership sites. Lightweight and highly extendible, Ultimate Member will enable you to create almost any type of site where users can join and become members with absolute ease.
Ultimate Member has a range of extensions that allow you to extend the power of the plugin. You can purchase all of these extensions at a significant discount with our All Access Pass or you can purchase extensions individually.
Our official theme is purpose built for websites that have logged in and out users. The theme has deep integration with Ultimate Member plugin and the extensions, different header designs for logged-in/out users and works alongside the Beaver Builder and Elementor page builders.
Yes. Ultimate Member will work with any properly coded theme. However, some themes may cause conflicts with the plugin. If you find a styling issue with your theme please create a post in the community forum.
The plugin works with popular caching plugins by automatically excluding Ultimate Member pages from being cached. This ensures other visitors to a page will not see the private information of another user. However, if you add features of Ultimate Member to other pages you have to exclude those pages from being cached through your cache plugin settings panel.
The plugin does not restrict access to the wp-login.php page when active, so that our plugin does not interfere with the existing functionality of a website or other plugins that may utilise the default login page. If you wish to restrict access to the wp-login.php page you can use a plugin such as WPS Hide Login or another plugin that removes the ability to login via wp-login.php.
No specific extensions are needed. But we highly recommended keep active these PHP modules: mbstring, json, dom, exif, gd, fileinfo, curl, iconv. wp-admin > Tools > Site Health page has a summary about your installation and required modules. All major extensions are listed here.
I know that both allow profile creations, and BuddyPress has more community features. However Ultimate Member does seem to have some pretty great member features, and on top of it the information is presented more clearly than with BuddyPress (I have a better idea of what Ultimate Member can do than with BuddyPress from looking at the website).
Can you explain this to me? I am building a membership site that needs to accept money subscriptions; but I also want the functionality of BuddyPress galleries for our members, and the facebook-like interface that lets people chat with one another.
I guess I am gun-shy, even though maybe integration with Paid Membership Pro could be better; the whole experience of trying to make BP and other plugins work together has been very trying. And we have limited money to spend on solutions.
Hi all. I have a fresh WP install from today trying to test UM + WPForo. The standard UM pages (login / register / account, etc. as shown here: ) work fine when WPForo is deactivated but when I activate wpforo, they give me a 404.
3. Set the UM settings to 'Yes'
4. Deleted all caches using WPForo dashboard page option.
5. Set custom authorization URLs here: -admin/admin.php?page=wpforo-settings&tab=members so that it looked like this:
In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

Over the course of July I've been writing daily about membership sites. Specifically I've been reviewing membership plugins. But before I get into the review today, I want to remind you of two warnings I regularly share with people. Maybe you've heard me say these things, but they still are worth repeating.
In case you didn't know, this review of Ultimate Member is the 13th membership plugin reviewed. Some people showing up to this site for the first time may not even know that there were 13. And the truth is that there are more than 31. But since July has only 31 days, I figured that would shape my list.
I told you above that Ultimate Member looks and feels like it was designed to create and develop communities. So while it does allow you to protect content, I don't feel like that's it's most prominent feature.
If you have ever talked to anyone about building a membership, they often ask for two features. First, they want a page that is unique to each member that the site owner can constantly edit. This is a coaching/consultant kind of feature. The second is the need for a directory of members. This is a community kind of feature.
But Ultimate member is more than just directory stuff. When I run the product thru my list of features, I do so to evaluate what they focus on. I never think a plugin should have ALL THE FEATURES. That's a support nightmare waiting to happen. The trick for me is to see which features a plugin supports so I know where their focus is.
When you look at the list, it's pretty easy to see where the focus is, like I said. They're trying to help you build a community. And they're doing a great job of it. If that's the scope of what you need.
There is no way to protect posts via the categories they're in. It's post by post. On a large site this makes it almost impossible to migrate to Ultimate Member because of how much work that means. This feels a bit like an oversight to be because it's not a huge feature to build. But if your focus is elsewhere, I see how it slips by. Likely it will be addressed soon.
There seems to be a bit of snag in keeping MailChimp and user roles synced. I'll admit, I was working on this demo very late at night so maybe it was user error, but when I change a user from one role to another, and I go to look at my MailChimp email lists, I'm not seeing them updated. Again, likely a small sync bug (or maybe user error), but kind of a big deal for folks a) paying for this extension, and b) planning to use it in live environments where you really need to keep those relationships in sync.
The last is what I've mentioned already. The only way to generate revenue on a UM site is with WooCommerce. That's a lot of plugin to install and configure if you just want PayPal or Stripe gateway support.
The dynamic and role-based menu feature is clean and a great way to do things. I've written already a bit about dynamic menus and sometimes plugins make it a lot of work. But Ultimate Member makes this really easy.
As I say with every score I put down, the score is based on my own criteria which I've defined while reviewing another plugin (and you can read more about). More importantly, the reason I write these reviews is so that you can look at the details of the review (not just the score) and see if it delivers what YOU need.
Will this thread be taken up by someone from the team?
This problem has appeared on the forum several times and there was no solution, and now the matter is made easier, because from my analysis the reason for the incompatibility of Bricks with this type of plugins.
