CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi - a new client (civicrm 4.x) runs classes - attendees who are not yet Members pay more and get a membership

So if the participant is not yet a member the fee is $85 (ie $20 for class and $65 for membership)

If they are a participant then the event fee is only $20

People can also join as Members separately for the $65 at any point.

So ideally if someone is registering for an Event we need some combination of

- if logged in and person is Member then only see lower fee

- if not logged then need to see a 'already member?' option perhaps with a coupon for the discount, or a way of verifying if they are a member before accepting the registration (checking via Match and if Member then accept)

- if not already a member then must register for the whole $85 and get a Membership kicked off automatically.

I have found various threads on similar topics but none seem to have come to fruition - and I think I have seen something more recent but couldn't find it in my Search.

- Event Registration and Membership on the same form? http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,16097
- Automatic Membership When Registering For Event? http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,14722.0.html
- Purchasing membership during event signup http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,12961.0.html

hey annie/poorva:

i think it helps everyone if you use the same handle on forums and IRC. kinda allows people to make the forum/irc connection

as pete mentions, there have been requests for this, but so far no code contributions or folks willing to sponsor.

Would be great if you can share your code once completed. If your client can sponsor a more general solution that would be great. I suspect a generic solution would be a 10-30 hour project depending on how generalized it needs to be

Hi, appreciate that you may be on Drupal, but thinking about it in a Joomla way:
1. A logged in user can be shown a different menu - so people who use the menu item logged in will get to the "cheap" contribution page and people who aren't logged in can only see the "expensive" page.
2. If someone is an event participant (and the contact create and money is handled by the Event process) the missing link is a membership create: presumably there is a hook in the event submission and then you could use the API to create a membership. The money won't show against the membership, but unless/until the accounting improvements happen that's inevitable, I suppose.
