Has anyone run into this before?

This player showed up to my tournament yesterday but he had a lifetime membership card so I let him play. Unfortunately the current system doesn’t seem to have him as either active or inactive and it’s being flagged on validation. Oddly enough what’s really getting caught is the lack of an expiration date.

Membership not activated. (missing expiration date)

I’ve emailed membership@uschess.org but they haven’t responded yet. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this and has a way around it? Otherwise I’ll sit on my hands and wait for USChess to get around to me.

Thanks,

-Shawn

We’re looking into it, this looks like an issue related to how the membership is coded in CIVI-CRM, which should be an easy fix for Korey.

There are around 42 life members with similar coding issues, hopefully Korey will get this one fixed and then work on the other 41.

Thanks Michael, Knowing that my issue is being looked at is all I wanted. I’ll wait for you guys to get back to me.

He’s active now, so you should be able to re-validate the event.
