Troubleshoot QCMM Subscriptions, Renewals, Expiration, and Joomla Groups

Troubleshoot subscription status, renewals, expiration, Plan assignment, pending payment, and Joomla group reconciliation without deleting membership history.

Check the Subscription Record First

Verify the subscription status, start/end dates, Plan, user, renewal linkage, and billing state. Do not repair a lifecycle symptom by deleting the subscription: QCMM relies on preserved records to reconcile access and commercial history.

Renewals Are Linked, Not Replacements

Renewal flows preserve predecessor/successor relationships. Check the prior subscription and its status before changing dates manually; an incorrect link or a still-pending payment can make a renewal appear out of order.

Use the Lifecycle Task for Time-Based Changes

Expiration and other lifecycle transitions are task-driven. Confirm the Membership Transitions task is enabled and running before editing status to compensate for a scheduler problem.

Respect Protected Joomla Groups

QCMM has protected lifecycle group IDs and reconciles managed membership groups without treating every Joomla group as disposable. Do not remove administrative/protected groups merely to make a membership test pass.

Repair Pending Payment Carefully

A pending-payment subscription is not equivalent to an active paid membership. Check its billing/payment records and whether the checkout was abandoned, captured, or finalized before cancelling or retrying it.
