When it gets stuck at pending that means paypal hasn't posted back to the paypal_ipn script for some reason.
I have checked the MySQL database and see PayPal has sent back through the "paypal_ipn" as the information is in the database and nothing is missing. Like I stated earlier is that is remained "Pending" untill I manually edited the database and then it went into an active subscription. After the subscription period ran out it remained "Active" for those users and still remains that way today. Those subscriptions ran out in December.
Like I said unless you have a way to do it in the message board software and not through PayPal it is cumbersome and really more of a hassle then it is worth. If you wish to setup a test board or use the area I had set aside for you several months ago and test and play with it feel free to do so but other then that unless you can control it through the Administration Control Panel I'm pretty much done with that idea, like I stated repeatedly it is to much of a hassle.
