PayPal buttons not connecting

Hi there,

I have a problem with getting the site to connect to PayPal. I have set up the shop area using WooCommerce and everything in the PayPal settings (API Password etc etc) is just fine. But when you hit the ‘Buy Now’ button on a product page the PayPal window opens and then quits, or if add that product to the basket and then go to checkout, you can’t place your order due to an endlessly spinning disk.

Any idea on how to solve this? Please see the errors I’m getting when hitting that ‘Buy Now’ button. If you need the login please let me know and I’ll get it over to you.

Thanks,
Rich

Hi there,

Yep, I’ve tried that and it works fine when not using Newspaper. The button works fine when it’s not Newspaper and the Checkout page looks fine when it’s not Newspaper. So everything is configured correctly.

Hi again Vlad,

I’ve just realised that the problem you have with the Column Text editor not working (in Chrome, Firefox or Safari) is (visually at least) very similar to the problem I’m having with the PayPal button and the Checkout page – with a pop-up window not working and an endless spinning wheel running rather than a connection being made.

Just wondered if this might help you diagnose the problem?

Cheers
Rich
