Title: Update Membership Statuses
ThreadText: # Update Membership Statuses
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2017-09-19)
  
  I am using civi on wordpress 4.8.1
  
  I just need to check something.
  
  If I have a membership that expires tomorrow and *Update Membership Statuses* is not enabled to run Daily, will that person's profile still have an "**Active**" status when it expires tomorrow?
  
  On the other hand, if I do enable *Update Membership Statuses*, will that person's membership profile status change to "**Expired**" tomorrow?
  
  I am asking because the description for this job says "***WARNING***: Membership renewal reminders have been migrated to the Schedule Reminders functionality, which supports multiple renewal reminders.", so I not sure I should enable it at all.
  
  Thank you
