Split fee into two payments

Alright, so once I fill out the form and proceed to PayPal, this is the message that PayPal displays:

Terms
$300.00 USD for the first 30 daysThen $300.00 USD for each 2 months, for 2 installments

First amount
$300.00 USD

It almost seems to me that this would result in 3 total payments, $300 for the first amount, and then 2 additional payments ("installments") of $300.

Am I understanding that incorrectly?

Alternatively, do you think using the "Renew" settings would produce better results? For instance:

Subscription Length: 45 days
Price: $300
Enable Renewal: Yes
Renew: 45 days for $300

Yes. It will be 3 payments with that setup. Could you set Number Payments to 1? Honestly, I'm not sure if PayPal will allow that

The problem with Renew is that users will have to renew manually (and we cannot force them to renew)

Alright, I changed the Number Payments to 1, and PayPal now says:

$300.00 USD for the first 30 days
Then $300.00 USD for each 2 months

First Amount: $300.00 USD

To me, it seems like this will work. I'll report back if I encounter any issues.

Thanks so much for your help.

No, it won't work. The reason is because PayPal will keep charging users every 2 months. Could you please keep that setting, then get this modified file, unzip it, upload to components/com_osmembership/plugins folder, and try again?
