okiewardoyo,
8 years should be plenty patient wouldnt you think? these are basic features that are mentioned here from all other sites, and the concept is not new or unreachable. it appears to be preference on both the payment gateways and the automatic update on membership levels upon upgrade.

that needs to be fixed on D7, i have not tested that because there were no payment gateways included and the few that we had with D6 are no longer part of the system. must not have been able to extract see more a means of payment from the payment processors, so they opted to drop the affiliation with the payment gateways.

Regards,
DosDawg
