unable to process the Card Type error

I am adding this because one of the sites Sachin is talking about is my site.

First let me day that I am testing with my personal credit card , so I know for a fact that the credit card is a good account.

I have been testing to find the problem and here is what happens.

If I buy something on one of my websites without updating the plug in the American Express card work perfect every time.

If I buy from the same website after updating the Paypal Plugin the American Express is refused.

I have tried this 3 times now with the same results every time.

So I can no longer accept American Express on any f the sites I upgrade.

We did make some adjustments because lots of people were getting errors back from the API when attempting to use Amex with unsupported currency codes.

Can you let me know what the currency code and locale code (language) are set to in your WordPress / WooCommerce settings?

I am having the same issue on a site. My language is set to English (United States) and the currency is set to United States Dollar.

We are getting the same error when using Amex.

@unclebodey: This is not your topic. If you require assistance then, as per the Forum Welcome, please post your own topic.

We are working to get this resolved ASAP. We’ll be releasing a 1.2.2 update very soon.

@esmi, Can you explain to me how my post is inappropriate? I have looked through the links you sent me and I do not see anything that says I cannot contribute in order to help the developer understand the issue further.

They posted a question. I have the same error and provided information in response to their question. Yes, I did not start the thread but I felt that I could provide information that was helpful.

Is that wrong?

@unclebodey: These forums have guidelines. Please read them. As you will see, one of these guidelines – entitled Where to Post – specifically states:

Unless you are using the same version of WordPress on the same physical server hosted by the same hosts with the same plugins, theme & configurations as the original poster, do not post in someone else’s thread. Start your own topic.

Please abide by this.

ok, got it.

@unclebodey, I’m with you. I’d rather just have people posting about like topics that are not resolved in the same thread. It makes it easier for me to manage without having to repeat the same thing in a bunch of different threads.

That said, the point about different versions is legitimate. Lots of people might have the same problem, but depending on their software stack it could be happening for different reasons, and then having all of that in a single thread could lead to confusion and some delays finding the problem and fixing it.

I see both sides, but the official rule here is to start a new thread, so I guess we better abide by it. I appreciate your feedback either way. ??

My language is set to English (United States) and the currency is set to United States Dollar.

@fastpitch, thanks for letting us know. We’re looking into this. It definitely should not be blocking Amex for USD. We’ll get it fixed ASAP and update again when that’s done.

@angelleye Thanks

@angelleye Thanks, We will wait for your fix.

I just now pushed our 1.2.2 update which resolves this issue to the WordPress directory.

If it’s not showing up for you in the WP admin panel yet you can download it manually here.

Our testing shows this update solves the problem, but please let me know if you continue to have issues with it.

Hi,

I just figured out the bug in the code and fixed it and tested too. here is the updated zip. please update the same in next release.
