Paid Memberships Pro - Subscription Delays Add On

This add-on lets you control when recurring subscription payments begin after a member checks out. It is designed for site owners using Paid Memberships Pro who need to offer free trials, synchronize group start dates, or align subscriptions with a calendar period.

Key features:

• Flexible delay options: Configure delays as a number of days (e.g., 7 for a one-week trial), a specific calendar date (e.g., 2025-10-01), or a calculated date using placeholders for year, month, and day (e.g., Y2-01-01 for the first day of the next year).
• Per-level and per-discount code settings: Apply different delay rules to individual membership levels or discount codes, giving you granular control over subscription start times for different customer segments.
• Immediate initial payment support: Process the first payment at checkout while delaying the start of recurring charges. This is useful for calendar-year or monthly memberships where you want to collect payment upfront but begin the subscription cycle on a fixed date.
• Common use cases: Offer a 7-day free trial on a monthly plan, start all members of a course on the same enrollment date, or create a "calendar year" membership that renews every January 1st.

Note: Sites with over 1,000 members forcing renewals on a specific date may experience increased server load. Check with your hosting provider to ensure compatibility.
