    Does any one know of a way that I can set up products that offer lifetime memberships? That is no expiration date?

    It is impossible to setup lifetime subscription, but it is possible to set a long enough subscription ;)

    Unfortunately, there is restriction that doesn't allow to use dates later than Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07 GMT. So, please use product period less or equal to 30 years. It is quite enough for life, believe me.

    Just to remind: Intel 286 processor (if you remember such) has been released 20 years ago. What will we see after 30 years? Will the Internet still the same? I believe it will not be the same as now.

    Lifetime Subscription

    You mean you can't calculate how long each member is going to live? What is wrong with you? :D


    PS: Just kidding in case the humor didn't translate correctly. :rolleyes:

    You set in product settings:
    "Is Recurring" = YES
    You will only see this field, if at least one from enabled your payment plugins supports recurring billing.

    Hi Alex thanks for the reply.

    Does that mean I have to manually renew free subscriptions?

    What is the reason to renew them at all? Make subscription period long enough and it's all.
