XF 1.5 User upgraded with eCheck before clearing

[GKBlaze]

So I had a user subscribe to my forum using eCheck on PayPal and it activated their membership before the payment even cleared. I remember this wasn't the case with vBulletin.

Is this a bug or designed like this on purpose?

The upgrade should only happen once PP send notification of cleared payment - echeques typically show as pending.

What does the transaction log show?

Worth noting that we very recently had a case where someone asked why an upgrade wasn't processed and the log showed it was a pending eCheck payment, so this certainly isn't definitive and it would be a bug.

The output for the transaction log that shows the user being upgraded would be very helpful.

here's the transaction log.

What does the title of that transaction in the log show?
Is it 'Action: Payment: Payment received, upgraded/extended' or something else?

Are there any other log entries for that member?

 

[GKBlaze]

title shows the following "Action: Payment: Upgraded user xxxxx (upgrade record #309)

this is the only log for the user.

Do you have any add-ons installed which are involved with user upgrades, etc?

Was the payment made from the standard user upgrade page?

 

[GKBlaze]

Yes I do, I'm using https://xenforo.com/community/resources/bd-paygates.1606/.

That would indicate that the Paygates add-on processed this, so it'd be a bug in Paygates. You'll need to contact the author for help.
