No free trial to membership upgrades?

Hi,

I have a pool of free and one-time subscribers on membership levels 0 and 1.

I want to get them to subscribe to level 2 with free 2 weeks trial period

S2Member version is 3.3.2
The tag code I used is
s2Member-PayPal-Button level="2" desc="Gold" cc="USD" ns="1" custom="example.com" ta="0" tp="2" tt="W" ra="50.00" rp="1" rt="M" rr="1" modify="1" image="default" output="button"

However when subscribers login and click on the subscibe button, paypal never show the trial period and the amount is deducted immediately without the trial period.

If this button is clicked by guest users, the trial period shows up. Is this a bug or feature?

How can I upgrade users with free trial period?

Thanks for a great product!

I changed the button to a regular button for Level 0 & 1 members to upgrade to level2.

Now they can upgrade to Level2 with free trial period. I guess "modify=1" causes paypal to ignore trial period parameters.

Does Jason have better suggestions?
