Multiple Duplicate Order Notes After Orders Shipped

Not an issue with this plugin. Sorry.

Hi David,

If you have discovered the cause of this issue, would you mind sharing it? I am experiencing the same thing (plus other issues as well).

Hello David Baumwald

Thank you for contacting Woo support.

I am glad to know that you found a solution to the problem.
It would be great if you could share your solution so other community members can benefit from it.

Have a great day!

The root cause of this was a recent update to the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin. There’s a bugfix included in the next version set to be released soon, but a pre-release package for version 2.8.0 can be found at https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/releases/tag/2.8.0-rc3.

We are seeing this same issue but with orders using other payment methods. Do you know if this bug was triggered regardless of the payment method that was used?

We have some orders that have 30 shipment notifications.

@fuzzyjared Yeah, this seems like it would happen with any payment module, when the woocommerce-paypal-payments plugin is installed and activated.

The root cause is a bug that happens when the woocommerce_shipstation_shipnotify action is fired, but before that plugin code verifies the order’s payment method is PayPal.
