Hello,

Sorry for bugging you but I need some help with the paid subscriptions on my forum.

There may have been a post about this before but I can't seem to find it on here and on Google. Which is weird. But anyway on to my question.

Q. When someone pays for a subscription, should SMF move the person who donated into the new group once payment has been sent?

Member > Selects subscription > Member gets sent to PayPal > Member Pays > Member gets returned to forum > Members account changes.

The reason I ask is because I have tried a sandbox payment via PayPal and when I tried it my account member group did not change.

The subscription is on 'Test', and my account is the Site Admin.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Josh

I hope that makes sense.

SMF doesn't change groups until notified by PayPal that you've received a payment. I'm not sure how this works with the sandbox though.

Works the same.  If payment is successful, PayPal posts IPN to forum, member is moved to subscriber group.  Sometimes there's a slight delay, but not more than a minute or two.

Did you set up a sandbox member account?  Is payment successful?  Anything in your error log? 

Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend,
 we were all equal in the end.
