What it does
Membership sites often need to add people who will never use the checkout page. Think of complimentary accounts, staff, partners, members of an invite-only group, or people who paid offline. Without a tool for this, an admin has to create a user, then edit their membership separately, or ask the person to sign up themselves. This add-on puts those steps in one place in the WordPress admin, so you can set up a member with the right access in a single pass.
The plugin works inside the Paid Memberships Pro system, so the members you add use the same levels and access rules as everyone else on your site. While creating a member you pick their level and can give them a specific end date, which suits trials or limited-time access. It checks for duplicate email addresses so you do not create a second account for someone who already exists. It fits clubs, organizations, educational sites and any membership business that handles some members manually.
Best for
- Paid Memberships Pro sites that grant complimentary access
- Invite-only clubs and private member communities
- Educational sites and organizations enrolling members manually
Features
Manual member creation
Add new members directly from the WordPress admin without a public signup, which works well for private or invite-only memberships.
Level assignment at creation
Choose the membership level while you create the member, so their access permissions are set from the start.
Custom expiration dates
Give a membership a specific end date to handle trial periods, limited-time offers or access with unique terms.
Free and paid memberships
Add complimentary members or special user groups alongside your paying subscribers, using the levels you already have.
Duplicate email check
The plugin checks whether an email address already belongs to an existing account before creating a new one, which helps avoid duplicate users.
Order notes
Record notes on the order created for a manually added member, which helps keep a record of why or how they joined.
Works within Paid Memberships Pro
Members you add use the same data and access rules as the rest of your Paid Memberships Pro setup, keeping your member records consistent.

Questions about PMPro - Add Member From Admin
Do I need Paid Memberships Pro to use this?
Yes. This is an add-on for Paid Memberships Pro and works with its membership levels and access rules. It adds a way for administrators to create members from the dashboard within that existing system.
Can I give someone a membership that ends on a set date?
Yes. When you add a member you can set a specific expiration date. This is useful for trial periods, limited-time offers, or any membership with custom terms that should end at a known time.
What happens if the person already has an account on my site?
The plugin runs a duplicate email check when you add a member. If the email address matches an existing account, it flags this so you do not end up with two accounts for the same person.

Yes. You can add complimentary members or special user groups manually and assign them any of your membership levels, while your paying subscribers continue to join through the normal checkout.
