estore-Maximum coupon redemption limit reached!, troubleshooting coupon codes

[AuthorYourDreams]

I Continue to get this MAXIMUM COUPON REDEMPTION LIMIT REACHED error, when applying a test coupon code. I have read all the existing posts and have tried what is suggested to no avail. I have check marked the coupon option in COUPON SETTINGS, I have the infinity sign showing for redemption limit. I have no idea why I keep getting this message, and after clearing my cache and doing the test.

After all is said, and done, I am wondering if this coupon is going to work, because my concept is to give it for free, and I don’t know what’s going to happen in the paypal shopping cart.

But for now, I would at least love to get this error fixed, in case I might actually want to offer a coupon for other products as well.

I am running the most recent version of WORD PRESS, the code is abcd and it is for $7 off and it is the SELF PUBLISHING TOOL BOX at this URL:

I am at a loss, anyone you help?

I have the infinity sign showing for redemption limit.

“∞” is not a valid value. Instead, try something like 32767 for the value.

Great! I will try that! What is interesting though, is why not just a regular value such as 5 or 10? This part is confusing to me.

However, my other question is, if I am giving a 100% off coupon, how does that work with the paypal shopping cart? Anyone know?

I suggested a large value because I thought you wanted that coupon to not run out. You can use any number value you want really.

if I am giving a 100% off coupon, how does that work with the paypal shopping cart?

You need to enable the manual checkout option for $0 transactions.
