  • Hi Amina,

    I’m having the exact same issue. Have you been able to resolve this problem? If so, could you please share how you fixed it?

    Thanks in advance. ??

    I’m currently having the exact same issue as biminico – I get emailed to say there was a cancelled order, and in the checkout the user gets the error ‘An error occurred while processing your PayPal payment. Please contact the store owner for assistance.’

    The PayPal payment isn’t actually made, and so my issue is slightly different to Georgey B’s (as described in the OP).

    I’m running a brand-new installation of WooCommerce and have the PayPal and PayPal Express options enabled, but no other payment methods. The users get the same error using either PayPal or PayPal Express.

    (My site is thankfully not live at the moment, but I would like to start sales in a few days…)

    I have tried using a few separate WooCommerce PayPal plugins, but none worked…

    I have just installed the ‘WooCommerce PayPal Powered by Braintree Gateway’ plugin and have just gone through the lengthy process of signing up for a Braintree account… hopefully that’ll work once the account is approved…

    I would appreciate any suggestions people may have for getting PayPal to work.

    Got it. A friend helped me with the issue.

    For anyone wondering, here’s the header.php file that removes the static image and replaces it with the Slider…

    <?php
/**
 * Header template for the theme
 *
 * Displays all of the <head> section and everything up till <div id="main">.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Twenty_Eleven
 * @since Twenty Eleven 1.0

    Compare this with the code in the original post to see what I changed. ??

    (Marking this topic as resolved; many thanks again!)

    Yup, simply changing the URLs in WP’s Settings > General solved that issue entirely, from what I can gather. Perfect!

    Thanks very much for your advice. I appreciate your’s and wphostonline’s time. ??

    Thanks, Shortstraw8. The instructions in that link fixed my problems 1 and 2 completely.

    However, I still need to enable HTTPS for the /astro/ subdomain.

    Using the instructions you provided, my root folder .htaccess file now looks like this:

    # Use PHP5.4 Single php.ini as default
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54s .php
# Changed PHP handler from application/x-httpd-php54s to application/x-httpd-phpbetas on Thu Dec 17 15:20:02 MST 2015.

 # Custom subdomain .htaccess SSL + WordPress
        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog.huntergeophysics.com$
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/blog/
        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /blog/$1
        RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^blog.huntergeophysics.com$
        RewriteRule ^(/)?$ blog/index.php [L]
        # End custom subdomain .htaccess

    So I tried to add a new section to that file as follows in order to get /astro/ to use HTTPS as well:

    # Custom subdomain .htaccess SSL + WordPress
        RewriteEngine On
        RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^astro.huntergeophysics.com$
        RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/astro/
        RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /astro/$1
        RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^astro.huntergeophysics.com$
        RewriteRule ^(/)?$ astro/index.php [L]
        # End custom subdomain .htaccess

    While the /astro/ installation still loads fine, it only loads in HTTP, not HTTPS.
    Could you recommend a way of getting this separate subdomain to load in HTTPS please?

    Thank you again for your help getting my main /blog/ installation up and running, which was my highest priority. ??

    David.

    Do you have any other suggestions please?

    Sorry, but it’s almost 3am here, so I’m heading to bed. Thank you for all your help this evening, and hopefully I’ll talk with you further once I awake tomorrow.

    Thank you again. ??

    Ok. I have recreated the subdomain. It didn’t ask for http/https, only the directory. Still not working, sadly.

    Thread Starter David Hunter – LAS

    (@david-hunter-las)

    Should I remove the subdomain and recreate it in case some settings somewhere aren’t working? Or will this irreparably break the website?

    Thread Starter David Hunter – LAS

    (@david-hunter-las)

    Ah ok. Well I checked the Bluehost CP subdomain area and it shows that the blog subdomain is pointed at the correct directory…

    Here’s a screenshot of my subdomain list: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4446393/Screen%20Shot%202016-01-07%20at%202.01.26%20AM.png

    Thank you again for your advice.

    Sorry, but that hasn’t fixed the first issue… it’s still displaying erroneously on all of my devices.

    And the link you sent is to an article that explains how to create a subdomain. I don’t need to do that…

    (@david-hunter-las)

    Thank you; I added those two lines to the end of the file and tested the main blog page and its admin area. Sadly, nothing has changed.

    Thread Starter David Hunter – LAS

    (@david-hunter-las)

    Hello. Yes, Bluehost has two options – one for the domain and one that covers the domain and all subdomains. I chose the option that covers all subdomains.

    Thanks for the thought, though. ??

    Nevermind. This issue has since been resolved thanks to assistance from the general WordPress support forum.
