    Is it possible when someone signs up for Product A to automatically "subscribe" them to product B?

    I know I should know this, but don't seem to find it anywhere!

    Thanks!

    Alex can give the definitive answer.

    But from what I've seen- no, or at least no, not without a hack.

    It would be nice to also be able to remove them from another product, but this isn't possible either.

    I guess this is really just an sql insertion.

    Alex, could you post the code for us?

    I would like to know the answer to this as well.
    When someone subscribes to product a (lifetime), they are automatically subscribed to continuity product b ($97 per month).
    If they unsubscribe to product b (continuity product), I want them to still have access to product a (lifetime subscription).

    Can this be done?
    Is there someone I can pay to have it done?

    Here is a solution that came from the help desk:
    "Enable aMember CP -> Setup -> Advanced -> Allow to select multiple products on signup page - so user will be able to select both products on signup."

    I did this and used product groups to make product A and B show together. However, customer still has the option of choosing one without choosing the other. I want the two to be linked together at purchase.

    Perhaps there is a way to code it so that choosing Product A will automatically put the check box in product B, thus linking the two together at purchase.

    I know that it can be added to the sql code. I just haven't messed around with it enough yet. When I get some time, I might try this!

    Another solution may be to use javascript code on the signup page?
    If one button is pushed it also activates the other.

    I tried selecting 2 products on the signup page and 1 shopping cart could not process the order (one was a lifetime subscription and the other was a recurring subscription).
    I think that Authorize_Aim can do it, but I don't know. Maybe someone with Authorize_Aim could test it.

    I did it by creating separate products for product a and product b. I then created the folders for each product subscription. I then simply took product b folder and added it to the product a folder and then linked it in the actual members area. This way, if they were paying for product a, they could also have access to product b. Then on the templates, you add a link to their second subscription and most members thought it was an added bonus.

    I know that is confusing but that is how I did it and I can help others set it up.

    Something I got from 1SC today was that You could set the product up in 1sc as a one time+recurring item (499.95 one time, and 19.95 recurring to start immediately, in my example)

    Now on the Amember side, She said to set up the TRIAL price to the one time, and the main price to the recurring price. So in my case, the trial price would be the 499.95 and the main price the 19.95 and it would work that way.

    About unsubscribing to one and keeping the other, Not sure
