It would be nice if codes were verified, so that if incorrect codes are entered, then a message appears. Similar to how CAPTCHA works if you supply an incorrect verification answer.

At the moment (on my install, at least) if I enter in a random bit of text, it will go through.

Since no promotion is happening to begin with, I can only assume that the registration would still go through, but no promotion would occur.

I can confirm that this is the case and this is a bug. It must have been introduced in one of the recent updates. The validation code in the promotion_user() handler is supposed to blow up when this happens. (At least, if I'm remembering correctly.)

This is caused by the fix to 1.4.

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.
