Membership length question
July 06, 2011, 03:11:54 pm
Hello

Our memberships last for one year.  All members renew on December 31.  I have this set up and works great.  However, sometimes new members will join after the renewal period, July 2011 for example.  The way we want to handle this is instead of the renewal becoming due in July 2012, we want the renewal to be December 2012.  In other words, if a new member signs up in July, they should get the remainder of the year (6 months) plus an entire year after that

Hope this makes sense

Normal behaviour would simply extend membership to the end of the current period. What you effectively asking for is an 1.x period signup. Since this is not standard I think you'll be looking at some custom code to handle this.

hey everything - have you read over the Fixed Rollover Date for a Fixed Year membership eg

http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/admin/member/membershipType?action=update&id=4&reset=1

I set the rollover date to Jul 1  this means someone signing up on July 2 gets 18 months basically

Quote
Membership signups after this date cover the following calendar year as well. Example: If the rollover day is November 31, membership period for signups during December will cover the following year.

Isn't that what you are after?
