I went under paid subscriptions, and I don't see a way to pay for another year of Knifemaker/Craftsman/Service Provider.... Do I have to actually wait until it runs out? I seem to recall a few years ago when I was almost a year in, I bought two more years to get my sub forum. How in the world did I do it? 🤷‍♂️ 🤣
 
With the new software I’m pretty sure you have to just wait until it runs out. That’s how I had to do it last time.

Used to get an email about a week before expiration, but that doesn't seem to happen anymore.

The only way I have found to do it in advance is to actually upgrade to a higher level, as your current level isn’t a viewable level, only upgraded levels are visible as an option.

That being said, this year I waited for mine to expire (it’s actually timed down to the minute of your last payment on the given expiration date). I then got a notification (the little bell icon) that I had expired, and I then simply opened up the paid membership tab and ALL the options were once again visible for me to select from.

I did NOT get a email notification that I had expired.

I went ahead and paid, and almost instantly (by the time I got back on to BF from paying by email PayPal) was back to my current paid level.
 
Spark Spark is it possible to incorporate a way to do this automatically, and/or in advance? Thanks.
 
There isn't. Used to be possible with the old software, but since the upgrade to 2.x integrated paid subscriptions into the core functionality, this isn't an option anymore. Only choice is to do the manual upgrade route which requires me to do it and costs $5 extra
 
Let's do it, thanks.
 
I'm at the shop with no email access so if it's an invoice I can do it later tonight. Just looking for another year of Knifemaker please and thank you Spark Spark
 
Has that always been there? I'm quite giddy to learn I can do that on my iPhone 5!
