If I were you guys, I would attempt to get a direct response from CS-Cart as to where they stand on this integration…

Quote from CS-Cart:
[color=“#000000”]“Unfortunately, CS-Cart will not support PayPal Advanced by default in the near future. If you need to implement it for your CS-Cart store, I suggest that you should consider our custom development service. Our custom development specialist can explore whether it is possible to change CS-Cart code to meet your requirements and, if possible, can estimate your request. Please let me know if you are interested in it and I will forward your request to our specialist.”[/color]
I use amazon for quick checkout and don't want to have another quick checkout.
I use Paypal standard on my 3 cs-cart sites without any issues. Setup in 2 minutes and never a problem?! Processing always works great and is instant… I can't imagine this being a cs-cart problem as there would be 100's of people complaining about this.
We got exactly a similar issue.
We are using CS-Cart since 2008.
At the beginning, PayPal payments were automatically processed and order status was changed accordingly. However, we have been experiencing status problem for more than a year as far as now.
Order statuses are not changed to Processed but stay Open despite a successful PayPal payment. CS Cart support is aware of this issue but they didn't find a solution for us.
Our Paypal Account's settings are properly set according CS-CART set up instructions but no way, it does not work.
Curiously, we also offer PayPal Express as a different payment method and we got no issue : order statuses are properly changed.
As I know now we are not the only ones with this issue, I think there might be a problem somewhere.

We have the same problem as well. Have had it on all versions of the cart even back to 1.43 in 2007.
Orders are paid in paypal but show up as open in CS-cart and never change status.
Once I changed some php.ini settings, after all time I was getting open order instead of processed.

I had never had a problem with it before but have started getting Paypal orders coming in as Open instead of Processed since upgrading to 3.02 - I'm not sure if it's because of the upgrade or if it's just a coincidence though.

Are you using PayPal Standard or Express?
I never could get the order status to change when I was using the Sandbox and PayPal Standard.
I'm still testing and have not gone live yet but I have not encountered a problem with order status changes since switching to PayPal Express.
I'm using ( and have been using ) Paypal Standard. It's strange because I had never had any issues with it but read a number threads here where others did, and now I am.

I don't know what the deal is with CS-Cart and PayPal Standard but I've had issues since 2008. If CS-Cart would implement IPN there would be no issues.
If you are interested in switching over to Express, you can search my recent posts. I believe I posted everything I did to get CS-Cart and Express to process just like Standard. Basically, I hid the Express button so users have to use the cart and I added some code to the Express processor file so customers are not forced to open a PayPal account if they just want to use a credit card.
Thanks, I may have to do that if I can't figure out what changed or why it's not working now.
Mine went back to working correctly so it was just a temporary hiccup
