I propose to take over this abandoned plugin

    Hello to whom it concerns. I have reached out to the initial developer Massoud Shakeri about taking over development so we can update and maintain this plugin, and he has informed me that someone already approached him with the same idea, and then the person never responded again, and never updated the plugin either. So to the person who currently owns this plugin now, I am formally requesting transfer of ownership. I can pay a fair amount for it if you would like compensation. I use this in a number of my sites, and I like to know my projects are tested, updated and PCI compliant, and at this point this plugin may or may not be secure.

    Please be in touch at your earliest possible convenience, as I will be asking wordpress to transfer this if it is indeed truly abandoned as it seems. Thank you for your attention!

    I finally could take the control of the plugin back.
    If there is any issue with this plugin, please let me know.

    This is the best news I’ve had in a long time, however I notice that the plugin page still says “This plugin has been closed as of September 13, 2022 and is not available for download. This closure is temporary, pending a full review”, and it is showing up as a Critical issue in Wordfence.

    Can you tell us when this will all be resolved, and thank you so very, very much for a GREAT plugin!

    I did redo this plugin, and make all the changes that people were asking for. The original author took it back over officially, and then wordpress shut it down pending full security review.

    I may for this plugin with our new fixes, or I may speak with Massoud again about passing it to us to maintain. We have an entire team who do gateways, so this is one of several we are already adapting and maintaining.

    We have 2 versions..
    1) the stand alone version that has had the status reworked, and the scope confined to actual EMT orders rather than a variety of transactional emails, which is very unprofessional.

    2) we have a pro bank level version that addresses issues above, and also auto generates a pid for each wp user, and syncs to an encrypted db via 256kb encryption each way using only pid as client reference in order to secure clients details, as well as merge this gateway as but one option of a variety of gateways which move payments via a ruleset (role, product category, processor limit amount, product type etc) between the active gateways. For instance, you might not want to subject your processor to new clients until they have confirmed their legitimacy via an emt, or you may prefer to safeguard your subscription clients in their own processor solution etc.

    DM if you might have an enhanced need to control your store payments via our branch exchange solution.

    Thank you for the explanation. I will wait patiently. ??

    It’s activate again.
    I did lots of security updates.
    please check if it works for you.

    I had a previous version of the plug-in installed and just noticed that the BLAZING version activated itself today. Did the old plug-in delete itself and update with this new version?
