    Is it possible to add some form fields to the Add/Renewal form? I mean the one accessible from the member.php page. It seems that some hacking is necessary, but perhaps I am wrong.

    What fields are you looking to add?

    I would think you could add it to the member.html template, but you would also need to then add code to member.php, and your payment plugin.

    I need to add "Credit card brand" field because although it's strange, Proxypay (or my bank which does use Proxypay for CC processing) needs you to choose the credit card brand (i.e. Visa/MC etc.) *before* you are redirected to their payment page.

    And I also needed to add "EU VAT ID" field but I solved that differently. I have already hacked the member.php and member.html to provide that functionality so it works for me now. But I have modified my aMember code so much already that any upgrade to a newer version will be simply next to impossible.

    Hi Tomfra, what solution did you find to this?
    I'm trying to find a way to force the user to 'update' their info before they can renew.

    I suspect the info found on members.php/html needs to be inserted into the various payment plugins (paypal & offline for me).

    Can anyone provide some step by step instruction how this can be done?
