Junior Members differ from Users in that they don't have their own login account. This means they have significantly reduced requirements for sign up, and "belong" to a User's account. Here are a few things to remember:
Junior Members don't have their own login or password
They cannot book themselves onto events and pay, the parent User does that for them
They don't get issued comp cards
Their renewal is tied to the parent User
They can't log their own firearms
Shooting records are collected, but are filled out by the parent User and go onto their record
Go to Settings for [Your Club] > Memberships and you'll see the junior members module at the top. Simply switch it on and select a price you want to charge per junior.
You can set the value to £0.00 if you want to make Junior Members free
Members add Junior Members themselves, and it's currently not possible for a club admin to do.
Open General Settings
Scroll down until you see "Manage Junior Members"
Tap "Add Child" in the top right
If there is a fee to pay, the user will be directed to checkout to pay it.
Fees for junior members are yearly, and will be added to the user's invoice on renewal of their primary membership. For example, if you charge £100 for Full Membership and £25 per junior, at renewal a Member with 2 active juniors will be invoiced £150 for the membership year
As an admin, you can view all the juniors who have been registered just like you can with users. In the admin menu, open People > Junior Members
As discussed above, since junior members don't get their own logins and can't book themselves onto events, it's up to the parent User to do it on their behalf. However you can control which events juniors are able to book when creating or modifying the event.
Adult means only Users can attend, no juniors
Mixed allows both
Junior means Juniors only (we would advise in this case that adults still attend, but are there to chaperone only. If you want to let adults shoot, it's usually preferable to select "Mixed")
Depending on the configuration above, and whether the User has any Juniors registered, will change how the booking form behaves and allow the user to book on some or all of their Juniors
Using price overrides, you can control who pays what separately. You can learn more about Price Overrides for events here, however there is an edge case with Junior Members to be aware of.
Price overrides are based on the User's role. Since Junior members don't have roles, you can't add a price override for junior members specifically. So, if you need to charge a different amount for Juniors and Users, here's the way to do it:
Set the "Default Price" to the price you want to charge a Junior
Use price overrides to set the price you want to charge Users
This way, juniors will be given the "Default" price and Users will be given an appropriate price based on their role.
