Fixes errors some users were experiencing after upgrading to 1.7.
We recommend all users upgrade to this version.
Major Release (New Features / Bug Fixes)
We're happy to bring you version 1.7. We have completely re-done the way guest payments are handled, no longer rely on deferring IPNs. User upgrades are now applied instantly for guest purchases + more!
New features:
- A new and improved process for handling guest purchases: no more IPN related issues, guest user upgrades apply instantly, and overall more reliable process
- Coupons system (PRO ONLY)
- Flat amount or percentage
- Limited or unlimited uses
- Start date / End date
- User group permissions
- Allow all or specific account types
- Special thanks to @fionix for sponsoring this feature
- Automatically cancel recurring Stripe subscriptions using the Stripe API when deleting a user account (PRO ONLY)
- The following 2 features are ready, but because this is a major upgrade, we want to wait 1-2 weeks before releasing them (in 1.7.1). That way, we can take care of any issues with this release first (if any)
- Allow extending user upgrades before they expire
- Expiry email/alert reminders
Changes
- Improved stability with XF 2.1.9
- Fixes an issue that would prevent user upgrade purchase receipts from sending in some cases
- Fixes an issue with guests not being redirected back from PayPal to complete their registration correctly
