18. Select the template you want.
19. Now you can see that there is a product tab in the template. Click it to see which product will trigger this subscription.
20. In our case we created a virtual product that will trigger this subscription because we didn't want everyone that bought the first product to start the subscription. So, we will need to remove the price from the first product so that the customer only pays for the subscription start. (If your subscription products are unique and not available for sale at the Point of Sale or online you could just set the first product as the trigger product.)
