Hello
I've got a strange problem with the newest version of Virtuemart. It keeps the order on Pending instead of Confirmed by shopper what I have defined in the standard payment configuration. Is this a known bug?
Is this the Paypal plugin? Could be several reasons (and if you search the forum you will find several suggestions on how to troubleshoot).
If it's Paypal, based on my experience this usually happens when there's problems with the ipn communication between Paypal and your site.
The VM Docs have some good info : https://docs.virtuemart.net/manual/shop-menu/payment-methods/paypal-standard.html
Did it work before the update?
