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

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

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

Could you say more about how you measured the result? I want to try this but I am not sure what success would look like.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.

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

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.

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.

Adding a small note: the same idea applies on mobile, just with a bit more attention to tap targets.

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

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

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.

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

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

This deserves more votes. It is a small change with an outsized impact on day-to-day use.

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