Introducing two new features to SureMembers with this release.
User Importing
First new features, user importing. With user importing you will be able to easily migrate from other membership solutions with ease. We provide a sample CSV file for you to add your new members to, and then import.
We put a lot of effort into building this the right way with proper validation and feedback on any errors.
Email Sending System
We have a big vision for SureMembers and an essential component to get there is adding an email sending system that we can expand upon when certan events are triggerd.
This initial release will introduce 3 new emails that can be sent.
For each of these email you can customize the text and add any number of tokens inside the email.
For example, the access granted email, you can include the date that the access will expire for memberships that have a fixed legnth.
As we introduce new features to SureMembers, we will also be adding more email templates.

The main focus of this release is to fix a few reported compatibility issues that have been reported.
We were going to include these compatibility fixes with an upcoming release that will bring two new features: Email Notification System and User Importing, which will make it easy to migrate from other membership systems.
But we needed a little more time to polish up these two new features and didn’t want to delay these compatibility fixes.
In the coming days, we will have another release with these two new features as we work towards our roadmap.

Fix:
Two days ago a customer in our Facebook Group asked about what we have planned for SureMembers.
I asked them to give me a day to formalize the plans, so I could share them.
Like anything, these are our plans, and sometimes things can happen to delay or change plans, but this is what we are going to be working on in 2024. If something is a few weeks or even a month behind, it’s just how it goes sometimes.
But first, let me share our plans for a sister product, Presto Player, because these two products will become the perfect pair.
Next year we will be rebranding Presto Player and bringing it into the Sure family of products.
In 2024, we aim to have 4 major feature releases that will get us closer to our long term plans for Presto Player.
Currently, when you create a video in the media hub, you then place it on a page or post.
Following the huge success of Instant Checkout Pages in SureCart, we are bringing the same concept into Presto Player to make it quick and easy to build gorgeous video pages and playlist pages in an instant.
Instant video/playlist pages will lay the foundation for structured online courses and e-learning applications within the Sure family of products.
We have long wanted to offer protected videos as part of a membership program, online course, or just pay per video.
We will be building a deep integration with SureCart and SureMembers that will unlock powerful ways to monetize your video content.
Protect and sell access to these instant video pages and instant playlist pages.
Presto Player already tracks your viewers. We just never built an interface to display what they are watching and for how long.
We will build it in a modular way that will integrate with SureMembers so that you can have comprehensive member profile pages.
We will take this last release cycle to make overall improvements and address user requests.
In 2024, we aim to have 4 major feature releases that will get us closer to our long term plans for SureMembers.
Most of the development of these features is already done. Email notifications will lay the groundwork for the next release.
We will enable SureMembers to protect instant video pages and instant playlist pages, as well as individual videos in a playlist.
This will enable you to create structured online courses.
Roadmaps is a new feature aimed at solving a problem with all membership plugins and websites.
It aims to answer the question in your members mind: What should I be doing on this membership website?
As the site owner, you will create Roadmaps for your members. A Roadmap is a series of steps your members should go through as part of your membership.
Steps can be:
With Roadmaps you will be able to create adaptive learning programs for your members.
It’s perfect for online training programs, coaching programs, really use case.
We think it’s the future of online learning for WordPress websites.
We will take this last release cycle to make overall improvements and address user requests.
So here you have it, our plans for 2024.
Hope you can appreciate the transparency and we hope you are excited for an amazing 2024.
The main focus of this release is to make it easy for 3rd party plugins to integrate with SureMembers.
Special thanks to Jack at WPFusion for adding the first integration. If you are not familiar with WPFusion, it is a very unique plugin that enables your plugins to interconnect based on CRM tags.
