Title: Multiple Groups Solution Last modified: January 30, 2017 --- # Multiple Groups Solution * Resolved [Leinad4Mind](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leinad4mind/) * (@leinad4mind) * [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-groups-solution/) * Is there any way/trick to have like 2 groups aka levels in 1 subscription? * Example. User1 subscribes to Level ID 1 (with renew value), and that level would put the user1 in 2 groups. VIP (group selected) and Special group. After the expiration of that Level ID 1 the user would be moved to the Special Group. * Is that possible? Instead of removing the group, changing to another group? Or maybe changing to a Level ID 2 named Special, and then changing to that Level instead of removing? * Best Regards - This topic was modified 9 years, 4 months ago by [Leinad4Mind](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leinad4mind/).

So if the user buys the Level 1 and the payment fails when it will automatically renew, he will be removes, right? * But I wanted not to remove the user from the Level 1, I wanted instead to move to Level 2. That way, all users that are on Level 1 and their membership expires/ cancelled, then they’ll be moved to Level 2. - This reply was modified 9 years, 4 months ago by [Leinad4Mind](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leinad4mind/). * Thread Starter [Leinad4Mind](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leinad4mind/) * (@leinad4mind) * [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-groups-solution/#post-8725474) * If writing that is too much trouble for you guys, can you guys at least tell me which file has the removing group function? * Thread Starter [Leinad4Mind](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leinad4mind/) * (@leinad4mind) * [9 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-groups-solution/#post-8727653) * I’ve fixed my problem by editing: /wp-content/plugins/paid-memberships-pro/includes/ functions.php * ``` if(empty($level)) //cancelling membership { $level = 0; } ``` * to this: * ``` if(empty($level)) //cancelling membership { $level = 2; } ``` * Plugin Author [Andrew Lima](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrewza/) * (@andrewza) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-groups-solution/#post-8729861) * Thank you for the feedback. It’s not good practice to edit the PMPro files directly, however here is documentation to do this using a function – [https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/change-pmpro-membership-cancellation-to-set-expiration-date-for-next-payment-instead-of-cancelling-immediately/](https://www.paidmembershipspro.com/change-pmpro-membership-cancellation-to-set-expiration-date-for-next-payment-instead-of-cancelling-immediately/) * I hope this helps, please let me know if you have any further questions 🙂 * Thread Starter [Leinad4Mind](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leinad4mind/) * (@leinad4mind) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-groups-solution/#post-8729959) * Thanks but in the moment I cant afford to be a member, orelse I would gladly be.
