Member meta data shortcode
I'm currently building a user "dashboard" for my site – a hub for all member data: user courses, recent content, recent discussions, profile links, etc.
There's a "my info" area near the top of the page that includes the logged-in user's name and registration date: {firstname} {lastname}, Member since: {registration_date}.
I've cobbled together something that works using a shortcode plugin, although the registration date is displaying as y-m-d-timestamp and it looks ugly.
A single shortcode to do this would be handy, and the memberships plugin seems as good a product as any to include such a thing.
What…
3 votesWith Memeberships 1.4 we just adding the ability to have a Membership area under My Account. That should take care of most of this.
See the idea here: http://ideas.woothemes.com/forums/133476-woocommerce/suggestions/8712973-woocommerce-memberships-my-account-members-area
And download Memberships 1.4 to see it in detail. :)

Woocommerce Memberships offer a free registration form
Many membership sites offer a free membership level, there should be an easy form we can use to register members quickly without having to go to the checkout, or login page.
6 votesMemberships allows for creating memberships from user registration, so any form plugin that allows for registration can be used here, or the WooCommerce registration form that’s built in.

WooCommerce Memberships: Membership Expiration Based on Product Purchased
When a product grants access to a membership level I would love to be able to set a membership expiration date based on a specific product purchased.
Example:
When a customer buys product "A" they receive access to membership level "Gold" for 3 months. After that the membership expires and they must renew the membership or purchase the product again.
Thanks! Can't wait to see this much needed functionality!
4 votesAccess length is controlled by plans, so this would need to be achieved by using different plans, then using different products to grant access.

This should be handled with the standard WooCommerce Downloadable Product settings: http://docs.woothemes.com/document/digitaldownloadable-product-handling/
If they should be for members only, then the store owner can create a free product restricted to members to distribute the files. If a direct link is placed on the site, we assume it should be accessible, and won’t be restricted media files individually.

Add member number
Our members are identified by a unique member number. This also show how long they've been members. We would like to have an additional field for member number added to WooCommerce Memberships. For now we will solve this by a custom field, but it would be better to have the member number in direct relation to the membership management in this extension.
3 votesThe WP User ID provides a unique identifier. An ID that shows how long the person has been a member is a niche usage and would require customization.

WordPress IDs are already assigned for users, and for each membership.

Redirect after checkout for membership product.
Membership is a unique type of product. Typically, most membership sites redirect new members to some sort of "dashboard" that shows their options for consuming content – a listing of available courses, forums, live streams, notifications, etc – all on one page.
Building the page is no problem. But currently, WC simply displays the "thank you" page after purchase – which is little more than a confirmation that the transaction was successful. That's fine for most simple products, but the ability to redirect membership customers to their "dashboard" immediately after purchase would make for a smoother member experience on the site.
1 voteWith Memberships 1.4 we now have a membership section under My Account. However we aren’t planning on redirecting the customer there after checkout.
This can be better handled with purchase notes (http://bryceadams.com/purchase-notes-woocommerce/) to tell the customer how to get to the membership section from the Thank You page.

Lock icons on content that is restricted to members.
Hi
For the new Woocommerce Memberships plugin. It is good but two considerations:
- It would be great if content that is behind the membership paywall show as being locked on headlines and excerpts. I.e. when a non-member is viewing the content headlines and excerpts there should be a padlock icon next to any headline which when clicked will come up with a message saying you need to purchase etc. And optionally an unlocked padlock icon against public content.
Right now public visitors have no way of knowing that the content is locked so they will endlessly have to click through…
1 voteTo add a lock icon, you can use the snippet shown in the documentation here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-memberships-snippet-samples/#posts

List and Link to Custom Member Page
Shortcode or other way to show an independent list (not just on the My Account Page) of memberships a customers has purchased with a button or link that takes them to a custom member home page (one that we build and specify not the pre-built one).
1 voteThis function exists with the members area from the account, we have a snippet for wrapping it in a shortcode. We wouldn’t support linking to custom member pages though (our code wouldn’t know what the custom page is our how to display it), so that would require customization.

Memberships & WPML
The new feature of granting free membership on registration is really great, however with WPML for Woocommerce, it is issuing multiple free memberships (in every language) to a new user.
WPML Support say that at present, Memberships is not officially a compatible plugin, so as this is going to bloat the database with misleading user info / multiple email reminders to users etc, hoping it is possible to either develop the plugin or provide some script to prevent this?
1 voteAs noted below, this should be addressed in WPML.

WooCommerce Membership redirect to url on login
Allow Admin to define a specific page which the user gets directed to when they login based on their membership. e.g.
Bronze Plan member gets directed to website.com/bronze at login
Silver Plan member gets directed to website.com/silver at login
Gold Plan member gets directed to website.com/gold at login1 voteBecause customers can have multiple memberships, each site owner needs to decide which page should “win” if there are conflicts.

WooCommerce Memberships: Non-cummulative Discounts
Right now if a member has more than one membership plan, the discounts for the separate plans are added together by the system. I'd like to have it so the person gets the highest discount based on the membership...not cumulative.
1 voteIn general, if a member has multiple memberships, they should get the benefits of all the memberships.
If you’d like this not to be the case, you can change it using the snippet provided here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-memberships-snippet-samples/#disable-discount-stacking

Micropayments: allow payments for individual articles
Using the 'more tag' option allow us to show excerpts and have customers purchase the rest of the article. Customers would be able to add articles to cart (plus merchandise, books, etc..) and checkout, at which time the person would be granted access to the remainder of the articles. Like MuCash and other micorpayment systems but fully integrated with WooCommerce.
