I thought the post was created as a draft immediately and updated to published when the payment status was updated. I misunderstood how it worked until now.</p> <p>If you are using the PayPal Standard add-on, you can edit the entry and update the payment status there. Screenshot: <a href="http://minus.com/lNsRfBh3AYMZS" rel="nofollow">http://minus.com/lNsRfBh3AYMZS</a> That will trigger any functionality which relies on the IPN to indicate successful payment receipt.

It will not create the draft until payment is completed. I can see the form entry, but no draft post. See the first of the settings shown above. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/paypal-echeck-payment-status-pending#post-184042 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 09:28:41 +0000 Chris Hajer 184042@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can update the post status on the Post Edit screen. You don't have to wait for the payment status to be updated for the post to be released. Have you already tried that? You don't need to do anything to the entry, just the post. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/paypal-echeck-payment-status-pending#post-184026 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 09:02:21 +0000 draney 184026@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>How can I override the payment status to release a draft post?</p> <p>We have these settings:<br /> - Create post only when payment is received.<br /> - Send admin notification only when payment is received.<br /> - Send user notification only when payment is received.</p> <p>We received notification from Paypal that eCheck payment in progress, but this takes a while to process. Meanwhile the entry is stuck with Payment Status: Pending</p> <p>Is there any way for me to go ahead and post their entry??? </p>
