2.3.5 - New Orders with approved payment are created as 'Pending' as opposed to 'Processed' status - using third party payment method (Mercado Pago)

Question

Magento ver. 2.3.5-p1

Third party Module used: Mercado Pago https://www.mercadopago.com.br/developers/pt/guides/plugins/official/magento-two

Description: users are able to pay for orders and their payments are approved and authorised correctly.

However new orders are created as 'Pending' and therefore a confirmation email is not sent. If I go to the order (Sales > Order > Order #00000) I can change the status manually to Processing by invoicing the order, however I would like to configure for new orders, with approved payments, to be created as processing.

There is an option on the Module (Stores > Configuration > Sales > Payment Method > Mercado Pago global Configuration), where we can define the status of new orders, which since installation has been selected as 'Processing' but still new approved orders are created as 'Pending'.

Please if anyone could help me on getting new orders to be created as Processing, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Answer 1

Is it possible that you have problems in

app/code/Magento/Sales/Model/Order/Payment/State/RegisterCaptureNotificationCommand.php

public function execute(OrderPaymentInterface $payment, $amount, OrderInterface $order)
    {
      - $state = $order->getState() ?: Order::STATE_PROCESSING;
      + $state = Order::STATE_PROCESSING;
        $status = null;
        $message = 'Registered notification about captured amount of %1.';

This effects Paypal orders, however depending on how the module is written, it may affect your payment module.
