Kyle,
Sorry! I have the promotion setup exactly like example 1: club in the timing tab of the promotion. What I did was instead of applying to all purchases, I changed it to Coupon Code. I left all other settings the same. When I go to renew the membership, the coupon field is presented. I put the code in, RENEW2016 but no discount is applied. If I change it to a static discount percentage, say 50% works fine. It seems to not work with calendar based promotions.
So what I'm thinking is to try and use "A fixed amount or percentage depending on the corresponding items price". I'd put a field in CB that holds the month of the expiration date. Then trigger the discount amount from that field. Here is what I have for discounts:
1:0%;2:8%

:17%;4:25%;5:33%;6:42%;7:50%;8:58%;9:67%;10:75%;11:83%;12:0%;
What would be the syntax to trigger the appropriate discount amount? (i.e. if expiremth is ...). I'm searching for a workaround at the moment and thought this might work. The percentages will be the same across plans since it is calendar based.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Joe
