The WP-Members PayPal Subscriptions version 0.9.7 has been released.  This is primarily a bug fix update, but also includes some general improvements. 

Fixes:

  • “Fixed” hard-coded currency symbol in the template (although it was customizable).  There was a new function added to the plugin to apply different currency symbols automatically based on the currency code used.
  • Fixed a bug from 0.9.6 that caused the extend user datepicker to not display in the user profile.
  • Updated IPN listener to avoid repeat IPN messages
  • Updated IPN listener to return 200 OK header for ALL responses (fixes issues with repeat IPNs being sent).
  • Update to use “mc_gross” instead of “payment_gross” for all transaction displays. “payment_gross” has been deprecated by PayPal and is only populated for USD transactions.  This resulted in non-USD transactions not displaying the transaction amount.
  • Added wpmem_a_extenduser() as an alias of wpmem_a_extens_user() to correct a backward compatibility problem between this plugin and certain versions of WP-Members core.  (There was a typo in WP-Members core leading to this issue)

Other improvments:

  • Added wpmem_ipn_remote_post_params and wpmem_ipn_curl_response_params as filters.
  • Merged the separate “remote_post” and cURL listener classes into one (they were 85% similar) and provided separate transaction processing for what is different.  This should smooth out the process of keeping them up-to-date.
  • Removes renewal reminder scheduled event if the plugin is deactivated.  If the setting is enabled and the plugin is reactivated, it will automatically reschedule the event.
  • Dashboard > Transactions is now sortable.
