PayPal IPN + CCGV = Infinite Vouchers?

[ryankan1]

Hi,

I've been searching up and down the net for information but can't find any. My oscmax store is running live and great now, except for the little problem with vouchers.

'Single use/ customer' voucher codes can be used indefinitely when using PayPal IPN as payment method.

ANyone facing the same problem yet? Or anyone who can point me on the right direction?

Regards

Haven't checked the issue you are talking about, but I do believe it is pretty much possible.

Paypal_ipn has on its own code for several functions that OSC would usually do somewhere else. Like, Paypal_ipn sends the order email when it detects the payment has been done, instead of having it being sent from checkout_process.php which is the way it is done with any other payment method (I have used/seen).

I guess it is pretty much possible that whatever code takes care of voiding a voucher when it has already been used happens on checkout_process, or somewhere else that gets skipped when the payment is done with Paypal_ipn.

Hmm ... so theoretically, it is also this snippet of code that I can plug into PayPal_ipn.php to decrease voucher balance and it should work?

I haven't looked at it, but I would say that yeah, that is probably the case.
