Don’t start using this plugin – frustrating
Some months ago I installed this plugin + Pro addon and configured this plugin. I ran into quite a few things that were difficult or impossible to solve. The GUI is put together in a very complicated way. If you add a user, you also have to do it in a different place. Apparently, the developer even created…

Worst app ever
It’s very limiting; its templates are basic, you can’t control the images that users upload, and they have very low resolution, which makes it unprofessional. This topic was modified 5 months, 1 week ago by laquituck.

It Doesn’t Work Right
This plugin never works right. It’s just one screw-up after another that I keep running into. And the support is never able to help (for free). I spend more time trying to fix this plugin than I spend working on anything else on my website. I was having a problem where my user profiles were showing the wrong profile…

Migrated huge member site, A+ experience
I never leave reviews for plugins, but having just spent several months with Ultimate Member I feel compelled to. I was responsible for migrating a 1,000+ member organization site from an old BuddyPress setup to UM and the transition was lovely. The Stripe integration is particularly well-implemented. Some of the…

User profile integration is fantastic
I’m using this plugin to enhance user profile photo display and it works like a charm. Love how clean and responsive the widget is. It even respects user permissions properly exactly what I needed for a members-only area on my site. Bonus points for not breaking my layout even with heavy CSS customization.

Getting attacks from bot
i get lots of random users on my site. New users with weird names are created regularly, deactivating the plugin stops this behavior. i got close to 1700 new members in a space of 2 months. They all had names with random characters.

Ok but what for?
I can’t see what improvement compare to what already exists in WordPress core, except a few options. Moreover a bit complex to customize. This topic was modified 1 year, 5 months ago by Pat.

Wouldn’t accept email address
Thought this looked good, but fell at the first hurdle. Did a test user registration, but it told me my email address (.net) was invalid! UPDATE: I have discovered that this is an erroneous error message. What it should actually say is that the email address I was trying to register was already registered. This topic…

Ultimate Is Great for My Blogg
I use Ultimate to manage my blog membership. The plugin has been great in helping me grow my membership. I am trying now to block bots signup. I think it will do the trick, by blocking commonly used usernames of the bots. Let’s see. But so far so good!

Hardcode crap
So, unfortunately its a crap. Yes, it do what u need. But, there is a lot of hardcode, a lot of hard css and js, who ruined speed of every!! page on your site. Slowdown pages about 60%. 2 days to override this and…. ah… delete it.

Difficult to manage and maintain
I’ve used this plugin for more than 2 years on 2 websites and I’ve bought the Pro version. I regret it. The plugin do the job. Yes… BUT the UI/UX is reallybad and you will have to manage awfull CSS stylesheet with dozen of class, IDs and “!important” CSS rules if you would change any layout on forms or user profile…

Excellent plugin
This plugin has made managing users on my website so much easier. The ability to assign custom roles and permissions is a lifesaver for my multi-author blog. However, the interface could use a bit more polishing as it’s not entirely intuitive.

Perfect, but annoying updates
Every time an update for this plugin comes out, I have to redo all the translations of the emails in settings again. Is there nothing you can do about that?

checkbox fields
How can I fix a typo in a checkbox without losing the selection of this field for users who have already selected it? I’m faced with the problem that after changing the text in a checkbox, the values for those who have previously selected it disappear.

Deplorable and dismissive support to Nonprofit
As the Founder of a wildlife conservation non-profit, I wrote to UM requesting details regarding possible services and support offered to non-profits. What I received was a dismissive response, not only informing us that UM do not offer such services or support to non-profits, but doing so in an unnecessarily…
