Prevent entries being record before payment is received?

  1. When using the PayPal add-on I've noticed that a user's form entry is recorded whether or not payment is received. This is a big problem for me as I'm using GF for conference registration. Is there any way to make sure entries are only added if payment is successfully sent?

    Unfortunately not as the data flow doesn't work. Gravity Forms records the entry, the user pays, and then the entry is updated with the payment status. Gravity Forms can't receive an entry as a response from Paypal and doesn't have anywhere to temporarily store the data as we wait for payment. Also for most people, this set-up wouldn't work anyways, as they want to see who hasn't paid for what they've requested.
