Hi @riseofweb,
Thanks for providing feedback.
PayPal Standard could be re-enabled with a filter provided in WooCommerce. It still works on a technical level, but it is no longer supported for new users and cannot be recommended.
Compared to PayPal Standard, PayPal Payments provides substantially more functionality, and it may not work precisely the same way as PayPal Standard did. While the new iteration is more complex, it is not a beta and works well in the vast majority of setups. There will eventually be a feature to provide a simplified, more basic checkout experience if you’re not looking for any of the advanced features though.
While there is no support for the old integration anymore, if you have questions or encounter any issues with the new PayPal Payments, you will receive assistance in the support forums: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/woocommerce-paypal-payments/
If you could provide more details about what kind of issues you are experiencing, we’d be happy to help.
Thanks!
Kind regards,
Niklas
