Display membership card for printing was created by Brad Kelley
This feature would allow members to display a wallet-sized membership card for printing on paper and cutting-out. This is similar to the way insurance companies allow printing of card information for folks who lose their actual cards.

The mechanism would allow admins to specify a logo or background image, and to select which fields would be printed.

An example is available here:

Hi Brad, I have the same for our walking club, so I created a card in the invoice settings WYSIWYG editor and it gets printed out at the bottom of the pdf. I use the pdf as it is safer when printed as apposed to an email because of size.

Hi Philip, Tables around the membership card are the key.
I can't test your card but create a table to hold the card -> table 1 set at 100% wide, (I set mine at 95% to avoid over run from padding) height nominal.
Inside that create the second one -> table style="width: 260px; height: 167px; float: left;". This is a good size for putting in your wallet.
Now the actual table for the card table 3 set at 100% width and set border and padding to what you want. (padding will give you the distance around the border) .
Any time you move the table height it might change the % to px so check it. If it is still too high then look at your font sizes. If you have set your site editor to relative for images then the images need to be in the folder ../media/com_osmembership folder. If your editor is absolute then you need to put in the full path -> www/site/bla bla.
Hope this helps. Cheers Adi

Hi, I have got the basic layout now working, but I've tried both ways to get the logo to appear and it still doesn't. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
