SjorsK Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Hi there, In the past we submitted a ticket about an issue that clients can not re-subscribe if they have an expired subscription. According to the ticket the issue should have been resolved with the 4.6 update but it's still there up to this day. When will this issue get resolved? People get the following error if the subscription has expired: You already have a subscription, and cannot purchase another.  We clear all subscriptions manually ever since but it's quite bothersome. Edited May 16, 2022 by SjorsK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Jim M Posted May 16, 2022 Solution Share Posted May 16, 2022 I'm afraid, there is still not a release of this feature quite yet. As mentioned here by Matt, we are still in the review process of the solution:Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SjorsK Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) That's really strange as it was confirmed to us that this bug was fixed in 4.6. But it isn't. See the conversation of the ticket below. I'm quite shocked that this billing bug is not addressed yet. I'm lucky tech savvy enough to run a SQL query from time to time to clear things up but this is quite an issue since this bug was implemented in 4.5 Anyhow, I wish to thank you for the quick response 🙂   ---------------------------  Here is the conversation of the e-mail in question: Hi, unfortunately I can't share any date, but as you see in our news section ( https://invisioncommunity.com/news/ ) , we've already started posting about 4.6 futures which means that it's not that far away:) -- Daniel Fatkicsupport@invisionpower.com {#HS:1407357784-43049#} On Mon, Feb 1, 2021 at 1:42 PM EST, Sjors Krebbeks  wrote: A quick clarification for my mail above: I try to determine if it's worth to wait or that I have to implement a fix/work around myself (That is of course unsupported by IPS).

Well, glad to hear that it will be a minor update. Any estimation when the fix will be rolled out? Kind regards, Sjors Krebbeks Lowepost  On Mon, Feb 1, 2021 at 3:07 AM EST, Daniel Fatkic <support@invisionpower.com> wrote: Hi, yes, this should be possible in 4.6 -- Daniel Fatkicsupport@invisionpower.com On Thu, Jan 28, 2021 at 1:00 PM EST, Sjors Krebbeks wrote: Hi Daniel, Thanks for your response! Glad to see that it will be improved in the future. Will there be a way for current subscribers to re-subscribe in a minor version update in the nearby future? If not, do you know a work around so I can get people to re-subscribe (Without admin intervention for every transaction)?

I put a subscription on it we don't offer anymore and set the expiry date in the past to make it expire. This issue is there since we upgraded to 4.5 (Last weekend).  On Tue, Jan 26, 2021 at 4:09 PM EST, Jim Morrissey <support@invisionpower.com> wrote: Hello, Do you have an example user's display name which we can investigate? While this is true in some cases, such as a cancelled purchase without the option to renew, I want to be sure it is not one of those. -- Jim Morrisseysupport@invisionpower.com On Tue, Jan 26, 2021 at 3:58 PM EST, Sjors Krebbeks wrote: We upgraded to IPS4.5 and since the upgrade it's not possible for clients to purchase a subscription if they have an expired subscription in the past.

As mentioned in Matt's post, we are testing the fix, releasing it in a beta, etc... Unfortunately, there is not a release this month so more than likely it will be in next month's release, pending our development cycle.
