    I am integrated with Paypal and can't figure out the set up for making a $1 payment then a $27 payment at the end of 14 days.

    Anton/Alex? How do i do this on my "Edit Product/Subscription" page?

    Here is settings that you can use:
    Price = 27
    Period = 5y (max value for subscriptions)
    recurring = yes
    Trial 1 price = $1
    Trial 1 period = 14
    Recurring times = 1

    Ive also developed a "lifetime plugin" which will allow you to give lifetime access after the 2nd payment has been made.

    Why can't you set the max subscription to 100 yrs?

    Why can't you set the max subscription period in the code to 100 yrs so it will be "lifetime"?

    This value is sent to paypal, so can't be more then 5y.
    This is possible to change plugin so it will set lifetime period for payments, will require simple customization in plugin code.

    Hi,

    I am trying to set up a $1 trial for the first 30 days, and then the member will be billed a monthly recurring amount (theoretically "forever") or until they cancel.

    I cannot find in product set up where it says

    "recurring =" (so I can fill in "yes")
    Trial 1 price =
    Trial 1 period =

    Where exactly IS this?

    Thanks,
    Lauren

    These fields will be available only when you will enable plugin that supports trials.
    For example paypal_r
