Promotion based on length of paid membership?

[troux]

I have a site that offers a premium member level for a yearly fee. I just started this feature about a year ago, and a bunch of accounts are going to be up for renewal.

I want to both reward and encourage members who subscribe for a 2nd straight year. Based on my understanding of the built-in promotion system there is no way to do this. I basically want them to be promoted to an additional "2year" group if their paid subscription time has been more than 365 days.

I apologize if this has been addressed before or if this ability already exists-- I searched quite a bit but didn't find any related results.

Thanks!

well you could probably try to program something yourself using the original membership date.

For instance (Human Language here)

if (orig_membership_date + todays_date) >= 365 days (or whatever you want here) then
discount = 25%

something like that is what your talking about right?

Yeah that's what I'm talking about basically. It wouldn't be from their join date it'd be from their initial subsciption date. I understand the logic I'm just not familiar enough the the existing code to hack it myself.

yes, i'll write it to do what you want it to do.

Cost: i'll say $150 because of the custom work involved.
