Charter Membership - how long of a wait?

[3pears]

I am hoping to support SMF by becoming a charter member and so paid through PayPal last Thursday. My profile still says I have no paid subscriptions. Does anyone know how long it takes for SMF to process and set this up? I recently found and loaded SMF in the past couple of weeks. It was immensely easy and smooth and my whole phpbb forum is already converted over. Because of this, I easily felt justified in paying for a membership - SMF Rocks!

SMF - if you haven't checked PayPal lately, please do so and get me on board, thanks!

For me it took about 15 minutes , I got the badge instantly but it took 15 min for me to be able to view the extra features you get when your a CM.

I'll take a look at this when I get home in a little while.

As a general rule it can take anything upto about 24 hours to receive your upgrade within the forum. I am sure Oldies we have you updated when he get's home.

Just as a heads up, he did already point out that he paid last Thursday.

I just checked on this. Your eCheck hasn't cleared the bank yet, but Paypal expects the funds to come through tomorrow. Once this happens, I'll update your status.

No worries. Leave it to PayPal to take their sweet time, eh??

As of today I have been updated as expected. Thank you very much! woot!

Good to hear. I guess the paid subscriptions mod handles that automatically (either that or someone beat me to it )

Congrats on becoming a charter member

Well ideally when the payment clears, PayPal should trigger the IPN which would then do all the forum magic needed.

Would be nice, but paypal doesn't.
