    How do I future date a subscription?

    After a paypal_r test today (2009-03-16) with

    Price = $197
    Duration = 1month
    Trial 1 Price = $397
    Trial 1 Duration = 1month
    Custom subscription start date = 2009-04-01

    ...the card was charged for $397, subscription date set to today (2009-03-16) and renewal date/charge set to (2009-04-16).

    I want the trial amount charged immediately and the renewal amount charged 2009-05-01. How do I achieve that?

    Thanks.

    I found a work-around. I count the number of days until May 1, 2009 and make that the Trial1 Duration. Will require changing each day until April 1. No big deal.

    Sounds like a bug- send in a tech support ticket.

    But since you figured a workaround, stick with that in the meantime.
