 * When I start the membership plugin up it automatically assumes that my subscribers
   are members – which they aren’t!
 * How can I make the plugin understand that there is a difference between present
   subscriptions and new memberships?

 * Hi [@rigpa1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rigpa1/),
 * Greetings and thanks for posting! 🙂
 * Membership wouldn’t normally add subscriptions or access levels to users automatically.
   It’s possible you’ve got a default subscription configured at Membership > Options.
   There’s a “Use subscription” option there which you can use to set a default 
   subscription for users.
 * Do you have that option set?
 * Thanks,
    David
