That turns it off in the back-end also. Is there any way to be able to reactivate/renew in the back end but not in the front end?
Maybe I should explain a bit more. Following your earlier suggestion, I have a link on the renewal page to where members should renew with volunteer hours instead of payment. This is in a custom component. The process now is to handle the hours there and then manually do the renew in the back-end. Is there a better way to do the renewal?
