About PayPal Pro Payment Module for WooCommerce 2.1.2

This is a WooCommerce payment gateway extension for PayPal Pro, sold through CodeCanyon. It adds PayPal Pro as a payment method in WooCommerce so customers can pay at checkout. The listing gives no feature list, so what it supports (card entry on your own site, refunds, saved cards) is not stated here; check the documentation in the package.

The file on record is version 2.1.2 from February 2019. PayPal has changed its APIs and product names since then, and WooCommerce has moved to block-based checkout. Test the gateway on a staging site in PayPal sandbox mode, with your current WordPress, PHP and WooCommerce, before you accept live payments.

Requirements

WooCommerce
A PayPal account with PayPal Pro API credentials
An SSL certificate on the checkout page

Key features

PayPal Pro gateway: Adds PayPal Pro as a payment method in WooCommerce.
Checkout integration: Runs inside the normal WooCommerce checkout, so orders are recorded as usual.
WooCommerce settings screen: Gateways are configured under WooCommerce payment settings, where you enter your PayPal credentials.
Sandbox testing: PayPal accounts have a sandbox for test payments; whether this module has a test-mode switch is not stated in the listing.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

Store owners whose PayPal account is set up for PayPal Pro and who want that method in WooCommerce.
Developers maintaining an older WooCommerce store that already uses this module.

Look elsewhere if

New stores that only need standard PayPal checkout; WooCommerce has current official PayPal options.
Stores that use WooCommerce block checkout and have not confirmed the gateway supports it.

How to install PayPal Pro Payment Module for WooCommerce 2.1.2

1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
2
Upload it to WordPress
In your dashboard go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin and choose the zip.
3
Install and activate
Click Install Now, then Activate. If an older or free copy is already installed, WordPress offers to replace it with the uploaded version.

Notes for this product

It is a gateway add-on, so WooCommerce must be active before you activate it.

Setup: using PayPal Pro Payment Module for WooCommerce 2.1.2

Install on staging first. Activate WooCommerce, then upload and activate the module on a test copy of the store.
Open the payment settings. Go to WooCommerce, Settings, Payments and find the PayPal Pro entry.
Enter sandbox credentials. Use API credentials from a PayPal sandbox account and enable test mode if the module has it.
Place a test order. Check out as a customer, then confirm the order status and the payment in the PayPal sandbox.
Switch to live. Replace the credentials with live ones only after tests pass, and run a small real payment.

Common problems and fixes

PayPal Pro does not appear at checkout

Why it happens: The gateway is not enabled, or the store currency or country is not supported by your PayPal account.
How to fix it: Enable it under WooCommerce payment settings and confirm your PayPal account supports PayPal Pro in that currency.

Payments fail with an authentication or credentials error

Why it happens: Sandbox credentials were entered while in live mode, or the other way round.
How to fix it: Re-enter the API username, password and signature so they match the mode you have selected.

“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading

Why it happens: The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it: Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.

“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”

Why it happens: The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
How to fix it: Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.

“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”

Why it happens: Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
How to fix it: Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.

Licence or “updates unavailable” notices

Why it happens: The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
How to fix it: Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
