Configuring the Web Settings for the Membership Benefits Control

This is NOT a standalone control, which means that in order for it to function, it needs to be incorporated into a workflow. However, if you are using the Membership Join Options control as part of the second step in the membership join process, you do NOT need to drop this control on the same page OR configure the web settings, as the membership benefits will automatically display (if defined).

As of 7.6.1, this control can be configured to be responsive to mobile users. For more information about using this control on a responsive page, please see Configuring Responsive CSS for the Login Page.

To configure the web settings for the Membership Benefits control:

1.    Add the "MembershipBenefitsControl" to the desired page. For more information, please see Adding a .NET Web Control to a Page.
The following Control Settings display for this control, as shown below.

Text fields have a 250 character limit.

2.    Configure the parameters as necessary.

3.    Click Save.

Description

Additional CSS Class for Control

Enter the CSS class, if necessary. This option allows you to add additional layout to the skin by developing a new DOTNETNUKE style, which requires an advanced understanding of HTML and CSS.

Default Delivery Method

Select the whether you want the default delivery method to be digital or print. This will be the default delivery method that displays to you user. For example if you select "D", digital will be the default option and the user can switch to print, as highlighted below.

Error Message

If necessary, select or create a new error message. The error message will display on the control for the action that was being performed at the time of the error. If left blank, the default error message, "An error occurred while performing [Insert Action]. If the problem persists, please contact the site administrator", will display. [Insert Action] will be substituted with the action the control was performing at the time of the error. If you wish to change the default error message, customize it with a PWF parameter. See Setting up PWF Parameters for more information.

Image Directory

This is the name of the image to display if the Membership Product does not have a small image defined. The default image is “not_available.gif", as shown below, and this ensures that the image exists in the image directory. If you would like to change this default image, replace the not_available.gif file in the image folder with the default image file of your choice.

ProductID URL Parameter

By default, this is set to "productId", but if the environment's redirection logic uses a different Query String name set it here.

RateCode URL Parameter

By default, this is set to "RateCode", but if the environment's redirection logic uses a different Query String name set it here.
