Security alert

Hi @cullachie

The security alert you’re seeing is referring to the Webhook secret, which is different from the Stripe secret key. The Webhook secret is used to verify that requests sent to your server are from Stripe and not a third party.

To resolve this, you need to configure your Webhook secret in your WooCommerce settings. Here’s how:

1. Log in to your Stripe dashboard.
2. Navigate to the Developers section, then Webhooks.
3. Click on your endpoint, then click the “Click to reveal” button next to the “Signing secret”.
4. Copy this secret.
5. Go back to your WooCommerce settings, navigate to the Stripe Payment Gateway settings.
6. Paste the secret into the “Webhook Secret” field.

Once you’ve done this, the security alert should disappear.

Further information on setting webhooks can be found here: https://woocommerce.com/document/stripe/#webhooks

Let us know how that goes. Looking forward to helping you.

Many thanks, that worked.
