Paypal Paylater settings cannot be changed and button doesn’t appear anymore

Hello @maedusabodyjewelry,

Thanks for reaching out to us, we’re here to help.

We addressed the issue with saving the Pay Later settings in version 2.6.1. Please confirm that you are using the latest release.

So far, we haven’t heard from any users still experiencing this problem in newest release. However, if you continue to face difficulties with saving the Pay Later messaging settings, you might try increasing the timeout value. You can find the relevant line here: Pay Later Configurator Settings (e.g., change it to 2000).

If you need us to apply this change and create a test package for you, please let us know. It’s possible that slow hosting could be contributing to this issue.

Looking forward to your response.

Kind regards,
Krystian

Hi there,

Yes I am using the last version of the Plugin. The error is still there. Also The link you send me isn’t working (it redirecting to an error page). Can you please explain how I can change this setting ? Thanks

Ok found it : https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/issues/2166 But that didnt work. When I press Ok, it doesn’t take the change into consideration. Also the button “pay later” doesn’t appear in the preview nor on the website, even if I ticked the box. Please help !

Hello?@maedusabodyjewelry,

Adjusting the file may not be effective after the plugin is already built. You’ll need to make the changes before compiling it. Also, modifying JavaScript files can be tricky because the code in the repository isn’t exactly what appears in the built plugin.

Please let us know if you can handle this, and if you encounter any issues, reach out for assistance.

Kind regards,
Krystian

I am sorry I do not understand what you mean by “compiling it”. Could you let me know the exact step so that the change is applied pls ? How can I reach to support if not here ?

Hello

Apologies for the delay.

Could you please confirm if you are still experiencing this issue with the latest version of the WooCommerce PayPal Payments plugin?

Just tried, still same problem. I change the settings it says : Your settings have been saved. But nothing is saved.

Hello

To resolve the issue, please try these steps:

1. Install the Release Candidate (RC) version of the plugin available here.
2. To ensure the Pay Later option remains disabled, add the following filter to a Code Snippets plugin. Detailed instructions are on our GitHub Wiki.

This will revert the Pay Later configurator to its legacy version, which should help resolve the issue.

Please let us know if the problem persists. We are here to help and look forward to your response.

Regards,
Femi.
