Problème de mise à jour

sergetuillier September 25, 2024

Jamais à jour et depuis plus d’un an avec la dernière version de woocommerce, on dirait que l’équipe ne se soucis aucunement du problème !? Bon, on dirait que cela bouge car il y avait de grandes différences de versions et aujourd’hui c’est mieux : “The plugin PostFinanceCheckout has been tested up to WooCommerce 9.3.1 but you have installed the version 9.3.2. Please notice that this is not recommended.”

New Rating after Version 3.1.2.

Previous issues have been resolved, and I am reviewing version 3.1.2, which I can confidently recommend!

very bad, 1 star is to much

I belive that if you choose Postfinance gateway you are obliged to use this plugin. Unfortunately it doesn’t even fullfill minor requirements and can become developers hell. I have contacted postfinance and documented the issues but only got arrogant replies, they don’t bother at all. Last time (back in autumn 2023) I crashed a full website by deactivating WooCommerce. The plugins code doesn’t even contain a simple check if WooCommerce is runing so it then calls non existing Woocommerce functions which makes the system fully crash. Not nice. I sent this and further code samples to Postfinance – obviously they don’t care and I’m quite sure nothing has been done. They ask you to not update WooCommerce untill they have fixed their stuff – you couldn’t make this up, just a joke.

Feedback on Plugin Security and WooCommerce Compatibility

TedSwiss February 14, 2024

We have experienced significant issues with the plugin designed for PostFinance integrations since a long time. Despite our efforts to highlight these concerns, alongside other companies, to PostFinance’s senior management, problems persist. The plugin struggles to stay updated with WooCommerce, leading to frequent issues on client websites after updates. We suggest revisiting the choice of service providers for these critical components. Switzerland is home to many reputable companies with a proven track record of reliability and expertise, which could substantially improve the service quality. It’s disappointing to see these challenges continue, especially given PostFinance’s reputation. Additionally, it’s worth noting that Wallee, previously known as CustomWeb GmbH, has historically faced criticism for its support and development of WordPress plugins. Prompt action to address these matters would greatly benefit the security and efficiency of websites linked to PostFinance.

Fehlerhaftes Plugin, schlechter Support

soriax December 21, 2023 2 replies

Fehlerhaftes Plugin, schlechter SupportNicht mal die Kassenseite funktioniert mehr, gibt nur 404 aus und im Backend kommt seit Wochen nur die Info:“A version of the PostFinanceCheckout plugin is yet to be released for this version of WooCommerce.”

Do we have a choice?

coriolis_too September 13, 2023

Plugin is rarely updated, always beyond WooCommerce version. Errors happening during payment, no support available. Is there an alternative plugin to handle PostFinance with WooCommerce?
