Member-facing changelog inside the community

For what it is worth, the same approach works with the PMPro adapter — the membership side is identical from here.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

Strong agree. Good defaults beat a wall of toggles every single time.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Following this thread closely. We are about to face the exact same decision and the replies here are gold.

We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.

Solid breakdown. The only thing I would add is to back up before making the change — better safe than sorry.
