Paid Memberships Pro Email Confirmation Add On 0.7
Paid Memberships Pro Email Confirmation Add On adds a validation link to the signup confirmation email, ensuring new members verify their email before accessing members-only content. The main benefit is secure onboarding with fewer fake accounts and controlled access until verification. It integrates seamlessly with Paid Memberships Pro for easy setup on Wordpress.
Description
The Paid Memberships Pro Email Confirmation Add On for WordPress adds an email validation step to member signup. When a user joins selected membership levels, the plugin includes a verification link in the signup confirmation email, so new accounts must confirm their email address before accessing members-only content.
Instead of immediately granting full content access, the add on controls access based on email verification status. It works with Paid Memberships Pro’s access logic, using the pmpro_has_membership_access_filter to prevent members-only content from loading until the email address is validated. This creates a more secure onboarding flow and helps reduce fake or unverified signups.
