Paid Memberships Pro Lock Membership Level GPL v1.0.1

The Paid Memberships Pro Lock Membership Level Addon GPL is a specialized tool designed to give administrators more control over membership levels within Paid Memberships Pro (PMPro). This addon allows you to lock a user’s membership level or restrict changes to membership levels for specific terms, offering greater flexibility in managing memberships and payments.

Key Features:

1. Lock Individual User Membership Level:
   • Prevent specific users from changing their membership level or selecting a new level if they currently don’t have one.
   • Useful for managing members who frequently purchase and cancel memberships, ensuring they remain in their current level for a specified period.
2. Lock Membership Level for a Specific Term:
   • Restrict members from canceling their membership until they have made a required number of installment payments.
   • Helps enforce payment terms by preventing early cancellations, ensuring members commit to the full payment schedule.

How It Works:

• User-Level Lock:
  • Admins can lock a specific user’s ability to change their membership level. This is particularly helpful in preventing abuse from users who frequently cancel and rejoin.
  • This lock can be applied to users who do not have a current membership level, preventing them from selecting a new one until the lock is lifted.
• Term-Level Lock:
  • Admins can lock a membership level for a set term, preventing users from canceling until the required number of installment payments have been completed.
  • This ensures that users fulfill their financial obligations before being allowed to cancel or change their membership level.

Benefits:

• Prevent Membership Abuse:
  • Helps control membership behaviors, such as users who repeatedly cancel and rejoin to take advantage of promotions or discounts.
• Enforce Payment Commitments:
  • Ensures that users stay committed to their payment plans, especially in cases where installment payments are involved.
• Flexible and Customizable:
  • Allows administrators to apply locks to individual users or entire membership levels, depending on the needs of the business.
