  After you've made the membership type as optional, you should set an additional setting on the contribution page, i.e,
  
  * visit Contributions -> Manage Contribution Pages
  * Go to the `Membership` tab of the required contribution page.
  * You will see an additional column of `Auto-Renew` on the `Membership type` field.

  * Select `Give Option` on the membership type that you want to enable this option for.
  * Save and Navigate to the live contribution link `civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=`. This should display an option to renew the membership.
