Moving from “WooCommerce Wishlist Member Integration” Plugin by WooThemes to “Wishlist Member WooCommerce Plus” Plugin by HappyPlugins

Recently, WooThemes announced they have discontinued selling their plugin “WooCommerce Wishlist Member Integration” and that they will also stop supporting anyone who has already bought this plugin and has it on his website.

If you are using the WooThemes plugin for integrating your Wishlist Member membership site with the WooCommerce platform you should know that this announcement will affect you at some point, as every new WordPress / Wishlist Member / WooCommerce version that will be released in the future will have the potential to break this integration as no future adaption will be done to the code, and all three platforms update quite frequently.

Because most of the Wishlist Member integration with WooCommerce is done behind the scenes, you will probably not even know a problem exists until one of your customers will report to you about it.

This announcement has raised many questions among users who are using the WooThemes integration plugin and we received many requests regarding our plugin Wishlist Member WooCommerce Plus and whether moving to it will cause any problems with the integration.

The short answer is NO and that it is very easy to confirm that moving from WooThemes plugin to Wishlist Member WooCommerce Plus has been completed successfully thanks to Wishlist Member WooCommerce Plus exclusive feature that displays a complete summary table of all the membership products currently exist on your website.
