What's New in SureMembers

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.

The main focus of this release is to make it easy for 3rd party plugins to integrate with SureMembers.
