"Member Since" instead of "Start Date" was created by Vince Bodie
We would like to be able to show on the front end how long a member has been active on our site. It seems that to do this we would need to change some language strings for "Start Date" to "Member Since" instead. However "Start Date" appears many times in the system, and I am not sure which one(s) to change to make this work. How would we do this?

Hi Vince

Just access to Membership Pro -> Translation, find the text and change it to meet your need

Thank you, however I am still unsure which string to change. To be clear, we want the date for the first time they ever subscribed to show as "Member Since", but when they renew we want the start date for their current subscription to be shown as "Start Date" or perhaps even better "Renewal Date".

Here are some of the constants I see, which one(s) do I change to achieve what I wrote above?:

OSM_SUBSCRIPTION_START_DATE_FIELD
OSM_START_DATE
OSM_SUBSCRIPTION_START_DATE

Thanks!

Ah, we actually does not have different language items for that. So there is no way to show the string for first subscription as Member Since and then for renewal record, show it as Renew Date/Start Date...

Hmmm so is this something that could be implemented in the future? It seems like it would be very useful for a lot of sites.
