Well I do believe you can easily configure the display of the tab using CSS as you see fit. I suggest using Firebug for Firefox or Web Developer extensions to examine the tab for classes.
I assume you are referring to the tab in the user's CB profile. I haven't gotten this far in setting up CB Subs, so I can't comment on that yet.
My main concern is that as it stands now, when a user submits their registration they are actually shown two subscriptions on the next confirmation page:
Subscription Plan: ParentTitle: Lifetime Subscription for User Free
Subscription Plan: ChildTitle: 1 year for User $9.99
This alone is more than what I want the user to see. After all, I only wanted the Parent to act as a container for the Child subscription plans. I would like to have them organized this way based on similarity of plans. I think it will be too confusing for the user to see two different plans, one that's free, when they really only thought that they were signing up for one plan - the pay subscription. Does this make sense?
My other main concern is that this is going to populate the Subscriptions list in the backend admin with a bunch of meaningless subscriptions to the Parent "divider."
Perhaps I'm not using the parent/child options as the developers had intended. If this is the case, what is the intention for the parent/child options from the developer's perspective?
Also, I suppose I will need to list all of the subscription plans as a separate parent category with no child. Unfortunately, this will not allow me to organize the plans based on similarity, etc.
Is this my only option? If so, do you forsee the possibility in future releases of CB Subs to use a "divider" parent without it creating a registration record in the database? Thank you.
