How do I upgrade from free to Pro mid-cycle?

[eliminado] hace 3 meses

I am on the free plugin and want to add Pro now. Do I install Pro alongside free, and does my existing data carry over untouched?

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.

For what it is worth, the same approach works with the PMPro adapter — the membership side is identical from here.

Solid breakdown. The only thing I would add is to back up before making the change — better safe than sorry.

Following this thread closely. We are about to face the exact same decision and the replies here are gold.

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.

We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.

This deserves more votes. It is a small change with an outsized impact on day-to-day use.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.
