Can you please clarify for me, we are using Authnet for membership purchases. If we opt to offer a period of time for free before the initial charge (3 weeks free then $49 a year) When does that charge occur? How do we stop users from using multiple rounds of free time? -grace

Hi Grace. The charge would happen after the trial term. What you could do is only offer it to registered Level 0 users. Then, before showing the upgrade option with the free trial, check that they haven’t already had a higher level before. [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Scripting -› PHP/API Constants -> S2MEMBER_CURRENT_USER_PAID_REGISTRATION_DAYS[/hilite] [hilite pre_code] 0) { ?> Offer trial No trial [/hilite] You’ll need a PHP execution plugin like ezPHP. Knowledge Base » ezPHP Plugin for WordPress® This doesn’t stop someone from creating a new account each time, though, but it does make it a bit more complicated to abuse the trial. I don’t know a way to fully prevent someone from using the trials over and over… I hope that helps. :)
