    When setting up subscriptions using the Paypal pro plugin for v4, there seems to be a discrepancy created between the date that aMember expects a renweal payment and the date for the next charge that aMember passes on to Paypal and gets set in the recurring payments profile.
    The rebill date here (in yellow):

    does not match the profile start date here:

    This creates a 1 day gap where aMember expects a payment that Paypal doesn't make. The user becomes expired on the product. This is also happening when the subscription times are shorter (ie, 1 day, 2 day). I'm thinking it might have something to do with a user buying a subscription later in the day and aMember is not including that day in the subscription since it's almost over. Problem is, that calculation (if I'm right here, maybe not) isn't being done on both sides (aMember and Paypal). What's going on here? Really want to use this plugin!!!

    This is not an issue.
    Paypal recuire rebilling time to be specified in GMT timezone, and there is a time difference (6 hours I believe) between your server timezone and GMT
