We’re excited to announce the release of PDF Invoices for Paid Memberships Pro version 2.0 β a major update that brings significant improvements to security, user experience, and administrative control.
This release represents the most substantial update to the plugin since its launch, with a complete UI/UX overhaul and several highly requested features.
What’s New in 2.0
π¨ Complete UI/UX Overhaul
The settings interface has been completely redesigned. We’ve moved the PDF Invoices options under the “Memberships” admin menu for better discoverability and a more intuitive navigation experience. No more hunting through separate menus β everything is now where you’d expect it to be.
π Security Improvements
Version 2.0 includes several security enhancements, including improved sanitization and verification checks throughout the plugin. These changes ensure your membership site remains secure while handling sensitive invoice data.
π Secure File Handling with PMPro Restricted Files
PDF invoices now use the PMPro Restricted File system for secure file handling. This means:
- Invoices are stored in a protected location
- Access is properly restricted to authorized users only
- Automatic migration from the old uploads folder on update
- Backwards compatibility with older PMPro versions
π Date Range Filtering for Bulk Downloads
Admins can now download PDF invoices filtered by date range. Need all invoices from Q1 2026? Select the date range and download β no more manually sorting through hundreds of files.
ποΈ Delete All PDFs from Server
A new “Delete all PDFs” option gives you control over server storage. Useful when:
- Migrating to a new server
- Cleaning up after testing
- Starting fresh with a new template design
π Regenerate All PDFs
Changed your invoice template? Updated your business details? The new “Regenerate All PDFs” option rebuilds every invoice on your site, even if the PDF already exists. Perfect for when you want a consistent look across all historical invoices.
