Description

I've been trying this out on my test site because I need something like this for a promotion I have coming up this Friday, June 11th.

I'm finding that when it is setup to accept only the exact code (haven't tested the simple format), with the availability set from today at 12AM to July 12th at 9PM, Activation: Immediately, and Expiration set to July 12th at 9PM... no promotion occurs.

I've tried a number of configurations, and I still get nothing.

The recent patch from 1.3 to 1.4 fixed a similar issue. We were providing links to a promotions like: /user/regster/XXX. However, the codes in the links were ignored.

I developed this module for use in my company and we only use the exact code. I have not noticed this problem. I want to help, but I'm not sure what to look at.

I thought maybe I had done something wrong... installed another conflicting module.. or something along that line. So, I installed it on a fresh Drupal install on my staging server, and I still can't seem to get it to go.

It seems fairly straight-forward to setup... but, I'm getting nothing.

I did have a couple of typical modules going on the 'base-install' that I tested with (CCK, VIEWs, etc), so I'm going to try this on a core-only install to see how it goes.

I really need this, so any support/suggestions is appreciated. If I can't get this to go in the next day or so, I'll have to use something lame like the sign-up module (lame for what I need anyway).

Thanks!

This is caused by the fix to 1.4. This is directly related to the problem in:

http://drupal.org/node/151033

The problem is that the fix to

http://drupal.org/node/150412

resulted in the code given in the Promotional Code box of the registration form to be ignored completely.

I have patched the code in CVS and am current tagging and prepping the 1.5 release to address this issue.

Ah, awesome.

I was wondering if they were somewhat connected.

I JUST did a fresh Drupal-core-only install and activated Promotion, and it still wasn't working... so I came back here, and low and behold--a fresh release!

Thank you!
