Hello,
using the subscription plugin, how do I set up a lifetime subscription? I mean one that you purchase once and it never expires, with no further payments or deadlines.

Antonio,

Wouldn't that simply be a regular sale? If you can provide more context for the use case, I could help you with the best solution for what you are looking for...

Hi Adam, anyone who purchases this subscription joins a user group that is granted access to certain restricted content. The difference with a standard subscription is that you only pay once.

I received notification of a reply where you say to set the subscription to 30 years, I don't see it here but you're right!
How do I set a 30-year expiration date? I only see day/week/month/year as the subscription price.
Thank you.

Antonio,

If you need to provide access to restricted content based on a user group and it's a purchase once - access forever type of deal, then the Add To User Group app would be the tool to use. Using the Subscriptions app for what you are trying to do is like going hunting for rabbits with a rocket launcher - it's way more than you need in this situation.
