Description
PCIO VIS Member Event turns your WordPress site into a complete back office for a voluntary organization or association.
It provides a members register, an event calendar with public sign-ups, e-mail and newsletter tools, a document library and a simple finance journal — all built on native WordPress capabilities so access control works with the roles you already use.
Public pages are served automatically under /vis/; no WordPress pages or shortcodes are required to get started:
- Home (
/vis/) — landing page for members. - Members (
/vis/members) — searchable members directory. - Calendar (
/vis/calendar) — upcoming events with sign-up. - Event (
/vis/events/{id}) — event detail page with banner, description and sign-up box. - Mails (
/vis/mails) — member mailings. - Newsletters (
/vis/newsletters) — public newsletter archive. - Documents (
/vis/documents) — document library grouped by type. - Finance (
/vis/finance) — finance overview for authorized users. - Statistics (
/vis/statistics) — member growth chart, page-view and login counters, and sponsor link click tracking.
Roles and capabilities. The plugin defines a cumulative set of logical roles — Member, Volunteer, Event Manager, Publisher and System Admin — that map to standard WordPress capabilities. Assign them per WordPress role from Vis Roles:
- Register for events
- Create own events
- Edit own events
- Edit all events
- Publish / manage documents
- Manage members
- Manage settings & mails
- Manage finance
Shortcodes. For themes that prefer to embed content in ordinary pages, the plugin also ships shortcodes: [pcio_me_members], [pcio_me_documents], [pcio_me_edit_profile], [pcio_me_event], [pcio_me_events], [pcio_me_event_roller], [pcio_me_newsletters] and [pcio_me_member_count]. The [pcio_me_edit_profile] shortcode lets a logged-in member edit their own contact details from any ordinary WordPress page. The [pcio_me_member_count] shortcode displays an animated total member count and can be used in any page builder (e.g. a Divi Text Module); each render increments the front-page-view counter visible on the Statistics dashboard.
Extensions. PCIO VIS Member Event is the core plugin for a family of optional add-ons (gallery, products, tickets, project management, home-owner association tools and Conventus sync). The bundled Dompdf and php-qrcode libraries are shared with those extensions for PDF and QR generation.

Changelog
1.2.0
- Added: Event Types — color-coded categories for calendar events with configurable access level (Public, Members only, Volunteers only). Managed from the Calendar Event Types tab.
- Added: Resources — bookable resources (rooms, equipment, etc.) that can be assigned to events. Conflict detection warns when a resource is already booked for an overlapping event. Managed from the Calendar Resources tab.
- Added: Default resources per event type — define which resources are pre-selected when a new event of that type is created; defaults are applied automatically on event creation.
- Added: Workgroups — new page at
/vis/workgroups/for organizing volunteers into named working groups. Each workgroup can have one or more members flagged as chairman. - Added: Volunteer role — members can be designated as volunteers (
vis_volunteercapability), enabling volunteer-only event access and workgroup membership. - Fixed: “Publish & share” heading was double-escaped and displayed as raw HTML entity in the event editor.
1.1.0
- Added: Statistics dashboard at
/vis/statistics/— grouped bar chart of members joining and leaving by year, front-page-view counter, login counter, and a sponsor link click table. - Added:
join_dateandleave_datedate fields on member records, editable from the member edit dialog and charted on the Statistics dashboard. - Added:
[pcio_me_member_count]shortcode — animated count-up number showing the current total membership. Each page render increments the front-page-view counter. Paste it into any page builder text or code module (e.g. Divi Text Module). - Added: Sponsor link click tracking — add
class="pcio-sponsor-link"to any anchor tag in your content. Click events are captured in the browser and stored; totals appear on the Statistics dashboard. - Fixed: end date/time entered in the calendar create-event dialog was not saved to the event.
- Fixed: clicking a single all-day cell now correctly pre-fills the end date with the same date as the start date.
- Fixed: end-time field was not hidden when the “All day” checkbox was ticked.
- Fixed: member list was not refreshed in the browser after a member was successfully deleted.
- Fixed: document list shortcode displayed a bullet point before each document link.
- Changed: WP Role column removed from the member list; the WordPress account status is now shown only as a “Create WordPress login” button in the edit dialog when no account exists yet.
- Changed: the edit-member icon in the member list is now shown only to users with the
vis_manage_userscapability; plain members use the new profile shortcode instead. - Added:
[pcio_me_edit_profile]shortcode — lets a logged-in member edit their own name, email, phone, address and custom fields from any WordPress page.
