My organization has been using civicrm + Drupal for memberships and website since 2009, and now need to add some additional optional section memberships to our membership signup. We currently have a separate donation page where members can contribute to several funds, and I would like to combine the donation page with membership signup for primary membership (with several levels) plus the two optional section memberships. I haven't seen a way to handle this in civi except with having a separate page each for primary membership sign up , donations, and the two optional section memberships. This will require several separate payments so could be pretty annoying to members. (Section memberships are only $5)

I have implemented a test membership and donation signup page in ubercart and used the uc_civicrm_products module to add the membership records and contribution records with the variable pricing module to allow arbitrary donation levels. That is close to what I need but still has some open issues that hopefully can be resolved

Are there any plans to add this functionality to civicrm in the near future? Is the uc_civicrm_product module the best way forward or are there other options that we should be considering? I have seen similar questions from others in the past but its not clear that this functionality has been added. We do have a limited budget that can help pay to make this happen...

hi mr clyde - seeing you are over here now too ;-)

just wondered if you were aware of this thread http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,14262.msg74615.html#msg74615

not sure how well it would sort your issue but may be worth at least knowing about it

Thanks -- somehow I missed that thread :-) I'll check it out today to see if that will work on my devel site.

I've installed the module membership_pricesets but it does not seems to be working quite right --

* the special membership field is still visible
* if I select options in the form and go to checkout, I get an error "Please select one of the memberships" -- should the membership options be part of the price sets field or the usual membership block? (that membership block does not appear in the form)

I am running civiccrm 3.3.6 with Drupal 6

Will buying additional optional memberships (section memberships through the price sets part) create a membership entry or just a contribution record?

I need a way to way to keep track of these memberships for access control -- will this do what I need?

Thanks!

Install instructions are here. I remember having a similar issue as I'd missed a step.

I figured out what was wrong -- step 6 in the wiki is for the Joomla instructions; the correct Drupal instructions were in the readme file in the main modules directory when I unpacked the file; rather than within the module itself. Once I followed the instructions there everything worked.

It would help to have clear instructions about editing the main.tpl file -- what i did works, but I am not sure if I broke it in other contexts.
