Member renewal terms with arbitrary number of months - e.g. pay by term or sport season
It would be great if the membership levels included the ability to allow arbitrary membership periods such as 1 month, 2 months, 7 months, etc. Currently it's rather restricted. This capability would make it easier to manage temporary memberships open to the public I believe.
Furthermore, the ability to set renewals to any number of fixed times would be very flexible and once again make temporary memberships easier to manage. For example, 2 month memberships renewable 2 times.

We're working on analyzing custom membership renewal periods right now, and while it's pretty obvious functionality for levels with renewals on the join date, it's not as easy for levels with renewals on specific dates.
How this will work for levels with renewals on join date: You will select "Custom" renewal period and set it to e.g. 3 weeks. See the screenshot attached for UI solution for this (it's new designs that are to be rolled out pretty soon)
For levels with renewals on specific date, the problem is not that obvious - and the main reason I'm not very sure about the actual association renewal setup.
If you need custom renewal period AND you have any specific membership start date - could you please describe your setup so I would have better understanding of your needs?

I would appreciate - from everyone - examples of situations where this might be needed / how common this is.

I believe we need to consider this together with http://forums.wildapricot.com/forums/308920-archive/suggestions/8834698-5-year-renewal-period-10559 and just allow to setup any custom renewal period (week, year, etc.)

I need a 1 WEEK (or X days) renewal period.
ie. Am a subscription service that offers information that is relevant to the upcoming weekend, and hence need people to be able to subscribe and pay for just the next & days.
Please please
