5.11 Editing Subscriptions

Important Note: Please be aware that the edits made to subscriptions as outlined here will NOT make any changes on the gateway level (i.e. in your PayPal Account, Stripe Dashboard, etc.). You should be using data from the respective gateway to update subscription info.

In MemberPress, you can edit any subscription that appears on the MemberPress > Subscriptions page. Reasons why you would want to do this could include: 

1. You incorrectly imported a Subscription and need to fix it.
2. There was an issue with the gateway connection that prevented the subscription being setup with the correct gateway ID or other data. In this case you are seeing a subscription ID that looks like mp-sub-xxxxxxxxxxx.
3. You would like to manually move a current subscription and the access paid, to another user (original user will still be billed unless the new user updates their payment info on that subscription through their account page).
4. Etc.

How you go about editing the subscription depends on the subscription type.
