CiviDiscount Isn't Tracking Usage

Question

(Now CiviCRM 4.7.0, Drupal Commons 7.50 and CiviDiscount 3.3)

If a user uses a coupon code, the coupon code is no longer tracking the number of times it is used or who used it. It appeared to be working until I realized that it only tracks two situations: if there was money exchanged (not a 100% discount) and/or if the coupon was used during a transaction put in on the backend and not by the user.

Furthermore, you should be able to assign an organization to the code so that the "codes assigned" and "codes used" is tracked. As it sits, those tabs do not report anything.

Also, when I first look up "Test Organization for Code", the organization that I applied the the test discount to, the tab clearly shows that there is a code assigned, however, when the tab is clicked on, nothing shows and the value is changed to zero. This could be an important clue.

Lastly, here you can see a MySQL table showing all recorded uses of the same code (item_id=2) but the data is being recorded differently. The last 4 were entered through CiviCRM and the first 2 were entered through a Contribution page, when it was still tracking; there should be about 25 rows, but the rest of the uses were never recorded:

Here you can see where the discount code that was used is still reporting 0 uses:

Here you can see where the test user that used the code is still showing that no code was used:

Things I've Tried:

• Changing CiviCRM to a standard install.
• Upgrading Drupal Core, CiviCRM and CiviDiscount to latest major versions.
• Was unable to reproduce the error on my own simplified sandbox using the same versions

Answer 1

I'll ad this as an answer so it's not lost in a comment. Steps to figure this out would be:

1. CiviDiscount is installed on demo/dmaster: try and reproduce your scenario/bug on demo/dmaster - starting by adding discount config here: http://dmaster.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/cividiscount

2. If you can reproduce the issue you're seeing on: http://dmaster.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm - then file an issue here: https://github.com/dlobo/org.civicrm.module.cividiscount/issues

3. If things are working properly on http://dmaster.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm - the issue may have been resolved and you would then look at upgrading your own instance to that CiviCRM version/CiviDiscount version.

All the best!

Answer 2

I was able to isolate the CiviDiscount tracking problem in a separate sandbox site. Using Drupal Commons at the latest version, CiviCRM 4.7.4, and CiviDiscount 3.3, with no customizations or other modules installed, I tested discount codes and they were not tracked, just as described in my question.

When I upgraded to the latest version of CiviCRM (4.7.14) the issue was resolved.

In my first round of testing using a sandbox, I had installed Drupal but not Drupal Commons and CiviCRM 7.4.9 and the discount code worked properly.
