Custom Plan Settings Tabs in WooCommerce Memberships

In this tutorial I would like to share with you how I figured in out the way of creating custom settings tabs on “Edit Memberships Plan” pages.

I needed to add a custom tab there for settings of my Simple Mailchimp Sync plugin.

And right now in this tutorial we are going to create a simple tab like this:

The good news is that WooCommerce Memberships plugin is customizable with hooks, actually there are two of them we need:

In order to add a tab we just have to do the following:

add_filter( 'wc_membership_plan_data_tabs', 'rudr_memberships_tab' );

function rudr_memberships_tab( $tabs ) {
	
	$tabs[ 'rudrmailchimp' ] = array(
		'label'  => 'Mailchimp',
		'target' => 'rudr_mailchimp' // ID of the HTML tab body element
	);
	return $tabs;
		
}

The tab will appear but it is not going to work or do anything actually. Now it is time to add some tab HTML. I am going to display a single input field there.

<?php
add_action( 'wc_membership_plan_data_panels', 'rudr_tab_content' );

function rudr_tab_content(){
	
	$list_id = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'rudr_list_id', true );

	?><div id="rudr_mailchimp" class="panel woocommerce_options_panel">
		<div class="table-wrap">
			<p>Please, enter the Mailchimp list ID to synchronize active users of this plan with it.</p>
			<div class="options_group">
				<?php wp_nonce_field( basename( __FILE__ ), 'rudr_mchimp_nonce' ); ?>
				<p class="form-field post_name_field">
					<label for="rudr_list_id">List ID:</label>
					<input type="text" name="rudr_list_id" id="rudr_list_id" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $list_id ) ?>" />
				</p>				
			</div>
		</div>
	</div><?php
}

And the final step is to save the data into post meta. You can use save_post or save_post_{CPT} for this purpose.

add_action( 'save_post_wc_membership_plan', 'rudr_membership_save', 10, 2 );

function rudr_membership_save( $post_id, $post ){
	
	if ( ! isset( $_POST[ 'rudr_mchimp_nonce' ] ) || ! wp_verify_nonce( $_POST[ 'rudr_mchimp_nonce' ], basename( __FILE__ ) ) ) {
        	return $post_id;
	}

	update_post_meta( $post_id, 'rudr_list_id', sanitize_text_field( $_POST[ 'rudr_list_id' ] ) );
	
	return $post_id;
		
}

Almost forgot about the icons! The plan settings tabs are using the icons from Dashicons set. You can easily set a custom icon for a tab via CSS.

.wc-memberships#wc-memberships-membership-plan-data ul.wc-tabs li.rudrmailchimp_options a:before{
	content: "\f463";
}
