Hi, I've been using your plugin and have had success. However, lately I've been seeing lots of members not move into the correct secondary group. For my use it's gender selection of Husband or Wife in a community. What I have found is when a user registers without selecting a renewable product, they get this registration page:

However, if they register and select a renewable product when first signing up they are sent to another style of registration form that excludes the plugin for secondary group:

Is there a way to get the Secondary Group to also appear on the registration page when selecting a renewable product/subscription?

Existing Subscriptions would not be able to be converted to a Product (only Products can be converted to a Subscription).

The other half of your question with a coupon with renewal-able products is true. If the first invoice is 0 then they would bypass payment. Then when the next renewal comes up they would need to pay the renewal price to keep their product active.

Shucks on the conversions. Thanks for confirming what I thought, @Jim M!

Hi all,

I've been using subscriptions but recently wanted to offer coupons and discounts for these plans. I realize in order to do so they would need to be a renewable product rather than a subscription. Is there an easy way to convert existing subscriptions over to the renewable products? I see product to subscription option but not the opposite.

Edit: I think I found the answer below would be yes, but confirmation would be nice by someone with more experience!

Also, when making a renewable product with a discount code, will PayPal via Billing Agreements, still auto renew on expiration day? For example, $9.99/month renewable product with a $9.99 discount for the first month. The user checkouts without having to enter payment information. First month goes by and that expires, so they go to manually renew with PayPal as the payment option. From there on out, will that auto renew for the user or will they have to manually pay invoices each month?

It works for links from the Music app starting with …

This can include podcasts. 

It won’t work for links copied in the podcasts app which start with …

https://podcasts.apple.com/…

Thanks, that answers my question perfectly.

Any idea if this plugin will also work for Apple Podcasts?

So far I haven't seen this error pop back up, so I think that was the solution. Thanks, gentlemen!

Thanks, all. I appear to have access to the php.ini file, so I did as @SeNioR- instructed and added that code. If that doesn't work I'll go the route of asking my host to assist in disabling those features.

New install on a shared hosting plan via BlueHost. I have access to the php.ini through the cPanel MultiPHP INI Editor for the domain and have checked that, but still getting this error. More than likely something I am doing wrong; however, I'd like to fix the issue. Error is:

MultiPHP INI Editor has the following:

; cPanel-generated php ini directives, do not edit
; Manual editing of this file may result in unexpected behavior.
; To make changes to this file, use the cPanel MultiPHP INI Editor (Home >> Software >> MultiPHP INI Editor)

Hi,

I'm working on a forum that is setup for married couples. Basically the idea is to have a individual subscribe at a certain level and then create another user for the spouse under the same subscription. Right now the spouse's account and subscription is being manually created and entered, but when manually adding the subscription there is no way (that I see) to add a expiration date that matches the original subscription expiration.

Is there a plugin that could accomplish this or a better way of handling subscriptions within IPS?

$100 for a renewal would be correct as you own multiple applications on your license:

• Forums: $40
• Gallery: $15
• Commerce: $45

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

Ok, makes sense! I didn't realize I had all of those applications. Thank you for clarifying it for me!

Post in the following location instead - that's the official support location:

You've posted in community support and may or may not be seen by IPS staff in a prompt manner.

I was going to, but doesn't look like I have new topic privilege in that section due to expired license (I suspect).

Hi all,

First and foremost, I hope this is the right spot to post this question. Currently I am a self-hosted expired license holder of a IPS Community Suite with the forums. Looking at renewing the license and see the renewal spot that shows "1 x Renew: IPS Community Suite" and it comes out to $100 for the 6-month renewal. However, when I go to the main site (outside of Client Area) and look at a new license cost I see that the Suite Core is listed as $100 with Free renewals and adding the forums brings it to $250 with $40 6-month renewals. Why would the cost of my Client Area renewal be $100 while a new license renewal would be $40? Asking because if it's a new renewal rate then I may just spend the $250 for a new license and lock in the $40 renewal which would save me money within 5 renewals anyways ($450 for new license and 5 renewals vs $500 for renewing existing license 5 times).

Thanks, Jacob.
