In the dnn store module, when I complete a transaction in paypal test mode, the order status returns 'awaiting payment' (after going through the paypal site, making a payment and returning to the dnn site). I had thought it would return 'paid'.

Is this by design or will the order status return paid when the site uses paypal in live mode?

Did you enable IPN at PayPal ?
