The Tier 3 Difference

I Fix What Others Can't

When your platform generates $50K+/month in recurring revenue, you cannot afford Tier 1 troubleshooting. You need an engineer who has been in the trenches of production emergencies.

Technical solutions I’ve built and shipped — from open-source plugins to enterprise-scale tools.

MemberPress Gift Reporter

The Problem

MemberPress lacked native reporting for gift membership revenue, leaving subscription businesses blind to a growing revenue stream.

The Solution

Built a WordPress plugin that hooks into MemberPress transactions to automatically track, categorize, and report gift membership revenue with exportable insights.

The Outcome

Publicly available on the WordPress.org repository, actively maintained, giving membership site owners full visibility into gift-driven revenue.

Administrator Rescue Link — Members Plugin

The Problem

When using a role management plugin, it's possible to accidentally remove a critical capability from the Administrator role and lock yourself out of WP Admin entirely. The only recovery path was direct database access — phpMyAdmin or WP-CLI — which most site owners can't do safely.

The Solution

Contributed the Administrator Rescue Link feature to the Members plugin (WordPress.org, 100k+ active installs). The feature generates a secure, time-limited magic link sent to the admin's registered email. Clicking it restores Administrator role capabilities through a dedicated front-end endpoint — no database, no server access required. Includes token-based verification, per-user rate limiting, Superadmin support for multisite, and a full refactor of the rescue flow for maintainability.

The Outcome

Shipped in the latest Members plugin release. Administrators locked out of their own sites can now self-recover in under two minutes without touching the database or filing a support ticket.

Admin Menus Editor — Members Plugin

The Problem

The Members plugin had no way to control which WordPress admin menu items were visible to which roles — forcing site owners to rely on third-party plugins or custom code for something that should be native to a role management tool.

The Solution

Contributed Reset/Import Roles and Reset Members Settings to Members, giving administrators safe, UI-driven ways to reset or import role definitions and restore plugin defaults without manual database work. Admin Menus Editor (the large admin-menu module, +8,000 lines) is still under active development: when complete, it will let administrators show or hide any WordPress admin menu item on a per-role basis, natively inside the Members UI with no external dependencies.

The Outcome

Reset/Import Roles and Reset Members Settings are available in Members for safer admin recovery. Admin Menus Editor remains in active development with an open PR on the official caseproof/members repository — when merged, native per-role admin menu control will reach 100k+ active installations.

Admin Filters for MemberPress

The Problem

MemberPress's built-in Members list has no filtering by address fields or custom profile fields — leaving site owners manually scrolling through hundreds of members to find who they need.

The Solution

Built a plugin that adds a floating Filters panel to the MemberPress Members admin screen. Exposes all six built-in address fields and every custom field defined in MemberPress → Settings → Fields as live filters. Uses EXISTS subquery predicates via MemberPress hooks only — zero core file modifications. Includes PHPUnit test coverage and CI via GitHub Actions.

The Outcome

Site administrators can instantly filter their member list by country, city, custom field values, or any combination — turning a manual scroll into a one-click query. Available from the official WordPress.org plugin directory, actively maintained.
