Allow Members to Change/Update Their Membership Level
Normally, you charge members to upgrade their membership level to a new one. However, you may want to create a special page that you use to give your members the ability to update their level for free.
This shortcode allows you to create a button that the members can use to change/upgrade their membership level by clicking on it. It can be used to allow you members to renew a membership for free or give them access to a level for free.
You specify the Target Membership Level in the shortcode.
Below is an example of how to use this shortcode. 3 is the membership level ID value in this example (the members level will be upgraded to this level when they use this button).
[swpm_update_level_to level="3" button_text="Update Level to Silver"]
You can also redirect the members to a specific page after they use the button. The following example shows how to use the shortcode for that:
[swpm_update_level_to level="3" button_text="Update Level to Silver" redirect_to="http://example.com/some-page"]
You should protect the page that has this shortcode so only members or users or particular level can see and interact with the button.
