    Two Questions! Help is much appreciated!:eek:

    We have just had aMember set up a new installation. We already have existing subscribers set up in Paypal.

    Now, we have a NEW Paypal address that will receive payments for the new membership site.

    (1) How do we import these existing members so that the subscription payment goes to the new account? Is there any way to control this bit within aMember?

    (2) Saw this bit in another thread, but am wondering why does the membership have to be set to lifetime? These are annual, quarterly, and monthly subscriptions. Does that matter at all? Thank you!

    Subscription payment agreement has been set with paypal- you cant change this.

    Because amember wont be billing these members, paypal will and there is no user record associated with the payments. So the 2 systems are not really connected in this case.
