I see others posted with the same question but haven't seen an answer as of yet.....
I set up the GC account. I purchased one as a gift and emailed it to myself. I received the email showing the purchase but saying it hasn't been released yet. I then go into admin and release it. I then receive the email saying someone sent me a gift. It provides me with the link to click to redeem the coupon, in addition to the GC code itself. Here's the problem:
If I copy and paste the code back in my store upon checking out, it works fine. However, if I click on the supplied link it takes me directly to my store and congratulates me on successfully redeeming my GC even though I haven't put anything in my cart yet. So I continue to shop, add to my cart and then check out. I paste my code into the GC redemption box. To the right it shows the correct available balance of my GC. BUT, when I click continue it stops me saying it's "an invalid redemption code". I continued on to the next page and it then says "the coupon code has already been redeemed or is invalid."
It seems to be redeemed automatically once I click on the supplied link within the email. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm running 1.3.5 with no contribs added.
