Hiding Free Membership Level from Billing

As the majority of members are on a free level my billing section of the Membership Pro is full of invoices for Free Memberships . this makes it very difficult to get a good handle on what is actually happening in my paid accounts.

As free memberships don’t have billing or invoices .. is there any way to stop these invoices from getting created and stored in the billing section.

    Hey there timvb,

    Hope you’re well today :slight_smile:

    This is a default behavior of the plugin when Standard membership is being used, so regardless of membership being actually free it goes through the whole billing workflow creating invoices as you mentioned that you can see in Billing section in admin.

    Removing that for free standard memberships would require custom coding so it can’t be done out of a box. However, as an alternative did you consider using Default membership instead? What this will do is simply apply membership rules of this membership to all registered users so for free access they will not be required to sign up but only register account on your site, this will also prevent the creation of invoices since for this type of membership there is not sign up process if that makes sense. To create it simple select “Default Membership” on membership creation, see screenshot:
