The files need to be uploaded to [ROOT]/media/com_osmembership/userfiles/[USERNAME] or [ROOT]/media/com_osmembership/userfiles/[USERID] folder, then it will be displayed on user profile page so that the subscriber can download. You can upload different files for different subscribers in this case (files for each subscriber is stored in it's own folder)

In earlier version, the maximum number of group members can be added by group admin to a group membership is a fixed number determined by administrator when setting up the plan. In this version, the maximum number of group members can be a dynamic number, determined by group admin when he subscribes for the plan.

2. Improve Custom Fields
Various improvements are made to custom fields in this release to make it even more powerful:

- Allow showing fee value associated with each custom fee field (in invoice, email messages) using syntax [FIELD_NAME_FEE_VALUE] . For example, if you have a custom fee field with name membership_option, you can use the tag [MEMBERSHIP_OPTION_FEE_VALUE] to show the fee value from that custom field.
- Add Synchronize Data setting to each custom field. If set to Yes, when data for that field is updated for a subscription record of certain users, it will be updated to all subscriptions records of that user.
