    Hello.

    How can I prevent users from registering for trial memberships more than once?

    Thanks!

    Authorize.net and 'free' are the payment plugins I have activated.
    Is this what you wanted to know?

    There should be "Trial Group" setting on product configuration screen. Read description carefully. And of course, trial must be handled with using of product settings, not with separate product.

    Thanks for the reply Alex, but if I edit a product, I see nothing about a "Trial Group". Where is this setting located?

    If you are using authorize_aim payment plugin, it should be visible in product settings.

    Oh, I see what the problem is. I only have Authorize.Net SIM enabled; I will try to enable AIM to see if that helps. I assume SIM does not have that ability? If my client only uses SIM, can such trial account abuse be prevented?

    Thanks for your help Alex.
