Answers.Body: <p>It sounds like you may be wanting to renew the membership of another person as an administrator. To do that you should use a backend form rather than the front end one which has "not Mister XXX XXX". One way to do this is to find the contact to renew, click on their Membership tab on the Contact Summary page, then beside the membership to renew click More > Renew.</p>
