YAK 1.7.3, when at first you don’t succeed…
…try, try again.
Release 1.7.1 managed to introduce a couple of bugs — my automated tests didn’t quite provide the safety net I was hoping for, in this case. Hence, versions 1.7.2 and 1.7.3 include the following fixes:
* fix a problem with PayPal IPN
* fix a problem with Accounts Receivable payment
* fix a problem with (manual) Credit Card payment
* reduce memory usage
* add instant update of pricing promotions in the first page of the cart (after hitting update)
Note: I’ve had one report of weird issues when upgrading. It doesn’t seem to break anything, but please let me know if you do have problems, because I’m yet to identify exactly what the cause might be.
I’m new to YAK, just downloaded it today (1.7.3). I’m trying to use it on a single blog that is on wpmu 2.8.4. Most everything seems to be working as expected, but it is not saving my paypal information for paypal live. All other options seem to be saving fine. I added “PayPal” in the “redirects for payment” and chose “Special: PayPal (live)” in the pulldown and it is saving those settings, but near the bottom of that page, it is not remembering any of the info entered there. I found the entry in phpmyadmin but I don’t know what to type there to force the settings to save.
Your host could be running a hardened version of PHP. If so, they generally have a limitation on the number of POST fields — which might explain why things aren’t saving at the bottom of the page.
I thought I’d resolved this by splitting the settings page into multiple forms, but perhaps night.
One way to confirm would be to try entering a value on the bottom of the shipping options tab and a value at the top. If you experience the same issue, it’s probably that.
At which point you’ll probably need to talk to your host I guess to find out what the POST limit is, whether it can be extended, etc…
I just tried the plugin on a regular wordpress (not wpmu) site and got the same result; not saving PayPal settings. Am I doing something wrong?
Shipping options are saving fine. I deselected all and reselected canada and USA and that is working fine. If you’d like, I could give you temp access to see for yourself and/or troubleshoot. The second site I tried it on is an old version of wordpress and gave some other errors, but it is saving all options except for paypal too.
Replied via email. It wasn’t happening for me locally, but is on my test server, interestingly.
I’ve got a fix. Version 1.7.4 on its way…
