The fact that you removed the code that you intentionally and surreptitiously included is no comfort. How would anyone ever trust your work after you tricked people into damaging their websites? You should be banned from submitting plugins.

P.S. When I ran the “/scripts/migrate_ea3_to_ea4 –run” script it appeared to hang about midway, but I just left it and several minutes later it took off again. Just so you know, a bit of patience may be required.

Thanks for that Mike. After reading your reply, I set out to upgrade my PHP version from 5.6 .22 to… well whatever version it took for me to get the SSL issue resolved. I didn’t want to updated manually because my server runs on WHM and I didn’t want to break any connections between its WHM’s capabilities and PHP. That being the case, I quickly found myself in WHM / Home / Software / EasyApache 3. Unfortunately, I was only being offered 5.6.22 or lower versions.

At that point I decided to load version 4 of EasyApache (although it is in beta). I accomplish this by taking these two steps:

(1) Open the /etc/cpupdate.conf file and set the RPMUP key’s value to daily.

(2) In WHM’s Update Preferences interface (Home >> Server Configuration >> Update Preferences), set the Operating System Package Updates setting to Automatic

And then ran this script:

/scripts/migrate_ea3_to_ea4 –run

on my server.

After that was done, I saw that I still had PHP version 5.6.22, but that the SSL had been updated when the EasyApache 4 script was run. The result was that WooCommerce was happy and I now have the option (in EasyApache 4) to upgrade my PHP version to any person I like up to 7.0.

Not sure it will work that smoothly for anyone else (EasyApache 4 is beta and there may be conflicts if you have special configurations, but I thought I’d share it in case anyone wanted to try it.

Be well –

Hello Mike,

I see you are certain that “If woo shows 1.0.0, thats what is being used on your site.” However my server says this:

root@x [~]# openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips 11 Feb 2013

While WooCommerce Status still says this:

cURL Version: 7.38.0, OpenSSL/1.0.0

and gives this warning:

wp_remote_post() failed. PayPal IPN won't work with your server. Contact your hosting provider. Error: Unsupported SSL protocol version

Could you maybe take a second look at this?

Thanks –

Thanks for the update – looking forward to the new capability!

Thanks for your work on this plugin. I tried to use it to post messages to all of the dashboards of users in my multisite network and, as I’m sure you are aware, it did not work; it simply placed the plugin in every admin’s dashboard for them to use – which is great, but I wish it would allow me to post to them, just as they are posting to their users.
