Build the Plan Details Page and Membership Overview
The Plan Details page is the customer-facing explanation of a membership—not just a bridge to checkout. QCMM 2.0.21 combines the Plan’s short summary, rich Membership Overview, optional image, structured benefits, term, price, renewal guidance, and the correct Choose / Manage / Renew action for the current user.
Write the summary and Overview for a customer deciding whether the membership fits. Pricing and structured features are rendered elsewhere on the page, so the Overview is most useful when it explains the audience, experience, expectations, and important conditions instead of repeating only the Plan title and price.
Write the Short Plan Description
- Edit the Plan and use Short plan description for a concise one- or two-sentence summary.
- Keep it under the current 700-character field limit.
- This summary is used on the Plan card and in the Plan Details hero when present.
- If it is blank, QCMM falls back to prose from the older Plan description data when available.
Build the Membership Overview
- In the Plan editor, open Plan Details Page.
- Use the Membership overview rich editor for the main explanatory content.
- Use the toolbar for bold text, bullets, alignment, or Code mode when deliberate administrator-authored HTML is needed.
- Save the Plan and inspect the real frontend Details page; do not judge rich content only inside the Administrator editor.
Supported Plan Tokens
| Token | Frontend result |
|---|---|
| {QC-Plan-Name} | The current Plan title. |
| {QC-Plan-Price} | The current effective Plan price formatted in the site Membership Currency. |
Trusted-Administrator HTML
The Plan Overview is intentionally administrator-controlled site content. QCMM preserves trusted administrator HTML/code essentially as entered (apart from null-byte cleanup) and renders it on the frontend. Only trusted administrators should edit this field, and untrusted scripts or third-party embed code should not be pasted without reviewing the security/privacy impact.
Optional Plan Image
- Set a Plan image path or URL and meaningful alt text when an image improves the offer.
- Choose image sizing: Automatic, Fit, Fill / Crop, Stretch, or Original proportions.
- Choose the focal position used for fitted/cropped images and an optional background color.
- Choose Image left / text right, Text left / image right, or Image above text. Without an image, QCMM uses a single-column detail body.
What the Details Page Adds Automatically
| Area | Source |
|---|---|
| Hero title / summary | Plan title plus Short plan description/fallback summary. |
| Price and term | Current effective Plan pricing, site currency, and membership term. |
| Primary action | Choose Plan, Choose a Meeting Time, Manage Plan, Renew Plan, or an unavailable/sample state according to current workflow rules. |
| What's Included | Structured Plan Features; current 2.0.21 renderer shows the first 12 in order. |
| Renewal note | For normal membership Plans, QCMM shows default manual-renewal guidance or No-Expiration guidance when no legacy custom renewal note is extracted. |
Write Useful Overview Content
- Who the membership is designed for.
- What experience or access the member should expect beyond the short feature labels.
- Any important fulfillment, onboarding, timing, or participation expectations.
- What is deliberately not included when that prevents customer confusion.
- Links or Plan Resources for detailed policies rather than pasting an entire policy into the sales copy.
Verify as a Customer
- Open the Plans page and read the card summary first.
- Open Details and confirm the Overview adds useful information instead of duplicating the card.
- Check image cropping and layout at desktop and mobile widths.
- Confirm the structured benefits, price, term, renewal note, badge, and primary action all agree with the actual Plan configuration.
- Test the action as the relevant normal user state: new customer, current member, renewal-eligible member, or Membership Family member.
