A small selection of older features in WishList Member have been placed in a legacy status over the years. This means a handful of features no longer appear in the WishList Member settings and are instead listed in the Legacy section. The few items that have been set to the legacy status have been replaced with an improved method of handling the task.
More details are included below (including a Video Tutorial).
There is an option to enable legacy features if needed. This can be found in the Advanced Options > Legacy section in WishList Member.
