    This seems to be causing several different issues all involving the information being passed back to WooCommerce from PayPal.

    I found a Stackoverflow answer to a similar question which stated to avoid using urlencode() on the return URL. I do see you use the plugin dies use it on line 632 in /paypal-for-woocommerce/classes/wc-gateway-paypal-express-angelleye.php

    This is what Stackoverflow said:

    I solved this problem with this:

    AVOID using “urlencode()” to encode the params, save your data as normal.

    example:

    array(
   'RETURNURL' => 'https://www.yourwebsite.com/confirm.php', //without urlencode()
   'CANCELURL' => 'https://www.yourwebsite.com/cancel.php'  //without urlencode()
);

    USE http_build_query($request) in the moment before sending it via “Curl” like this:

    curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS , http_build_query($request));

    I’m a little confused. Were you able to resolve the issue in our plugin by making an adjustment?

    We have not had any other reports of this, and it’s not something I can reproduce myself on my test sites, so I’m thinking it must be something unique there that caused the issue. This could be a conflicting plugin or something in the theme or on the server directly.

    Thank you for answering so fast!

    Sorry for the confusion. No I have not attempted to do the fix. I wasn’t even sure if this was the right fix it just seemed to be in the right direction so i wanted to contact you.

    It is exclusive for PayPal Express, and it happens when PayPal sends the information back to the return URL But it does not always happen for us either. Looking close at the orders it seems like the ones with a # in the address have an issue and teh ones without do not.

    So it does not sound like urlencode() could be causing an issue when used to prepare the return URL for the API call?

    I will try to do some further investigation myself.

    While our plugin is using urlencode, it wouldn’t have any address data included. The return URL gets generated like this…

    $review_order_page_url = get_permalink(wc_get_page_id('review_order'));
$returnURL = urlencode(add_query_arg('pp_action', 'revieworder', $review_order_page_url));

    So you can see it’s simply pulling the WooCommerce review order page URL and using that for the return URL. Somehow yours must be returning an incorrect value at times..??

    This seems to have been corrected in your most recent updates to the plugin. Thank you ??

    We are experiencing a different issue but I will make a new post for that.
