Currently deep in the backend getting Stripe and Dokan properly configured. Balancing that out by playing a relentless game of CSS whack-a-mole today. Slowly but surely making progress on the platform! 🥊🎨 🏳️‍⚧️ #TransTech #BuildInPublic #WebDev #IndieHackers #StartupLife

Fire one test refund through that Dokan setup before beta traffic arrives. Splits behave on day one. The first refund-after-payout is the one that teaches you the whole flow again. Good luck with the whack-a-mole.

You were right about testing the refund flow. Turns out Dokan Lite doesn’t give us the Stripe refund integration we needed, so I ended up building the refund request/approval bit and wiring it through WooCommerce -> Stripe. Just got the first test refunds working. Your warning was VERY well timed!

That's the good kind of I-told-you-so, where nothing broke with a customer's money involved. Congrats on the first refunds clearing.

Glad the test caught it before a customer did. Owning the request/approval step is sturdier anyway, the rules stay yours when Dokan changes underneath. Saw the partial-refund post too. Line-item quantities against Stripe is usually where these flows break first. Nice work.
