I have an instance of where an event with a event date with a limit of 16 places, containing 2 tickets each with a qty of 16 has sold out with only 9 registrations.
the 9 registrations are all on 1 ticket, but for some reason the sold stands at 16, thus making the course sold out.
There have been several registrations trashed on this event, and the trashed registrations have also been deleted, but still the sold count seems to be being effected.
The cause of this is likely the payment method, not simply because it’s custom, but because it’s offsite.
Did you base that payment method on one of ours?
I’ve seen this happen with PayPal Standard (which we’ve since deprecated) because the user and the IPN would hit the site at the same time causing the sold values to be incremented at the same time and double up.
I can confirm I’ve been able to replicate the issue. When the IPN returns the sold count is increased, and when the user returns back to the site the sold count is increased again.
