Your second auto action that reduces cb_gifts should have User set to Self. That should fix that.

Thank you Krileon for your reply.

This was already set to Self from the beginning.

Please see screenshot to check if we are talking about the same.

Ah, I see why. The Action type is directly executing the action and bypassing the User parameter. Am reviewing fixing this for a new build release so User can function properly for chained auto actions.

Ok, latest build release of CB Auto Actions has added a Mode parameter to the Action type. So once updated edit Action 3 and set Mode to Run. This will allow the auto actions it's executing to run their user parsing.

It worked like a charm!

The gift subscription was applied to user B and everything is fine with the gift activation subscription!

Now another issue arises...

What happens with the used purchased gift plan before and after usage?

Example 1 (before offering the gift to another user)
User A purchases a gift plan. Normally the gift plan must not have an expiration date. So is there a way to keep the gift plan active till it is used?

Example 2 (after offering the gift to another user)
What is the best way to expire and completely delete the gift plan after it is used and "cb_gifts" integer field becomes "0"?

If it is not deleted somehow after usage, and someone orders 20 gift plans, they will remain in subscription update possibilities for ever?

Thank you.
