1. Revising bundle membership functionality

   About a year ago we have created functionality which was originally called 'Group membership' and later has been renamed into 'Bundle membership' (See http://help.wildapricot.com/display/DOC/Membership+bundles ). Our goal behind this functionality was to make it easy to deal with multi-person memberships (typically sold as a package, a 'bundle'):
   * corporate membership
   * sports team
   * family/household

   In a nutshell, for a given membership level you specify that it is a 'Bundle' (limited to NN members per bundle or unlimited). Person applying for membership becomes administrator and can later add members to his bundle at no additional charge.

   It sounds like this feature is not quite addressing the needs of our clients and we actively seeking feedback:
   * What is missing?
   * What is inconvenient/should be changed in current implementation?

   here are some specific issues already identified by our clients:
   * need to have different fields for the parent record (e.g. company-specific fields) and child records (individual persons).

   • Ability to only show the parent record in a particular member directory and then on its profile page provide links to profiles of linked individuals
   • Unlink the concept of 'parent' record and 'bundle admin' - right now they are the same. One possible solution we are considering is to add the ability for these related individual records to be in a different membership level from the parent record. In this way they can be shown/hidden in the member directory as needed - and can use different fields.
