    Thank you for your work on this plugin. Thank you for updating with the latest Akamai update.

    There is a major grammatical error in authorize.net-woocommerce-addon.php on the line 348 that says:
    “Merchant do not support accepting in “

    Are you able to update this to more natural english language that says something like:
    “Please try again. There is an error: “

    Thank you!

    Well if it becomes something like this

    Merchant does not accept Visa

    I think should be fine as Its not an error its based on the card logo you do not allow in plugin settings and customers try that card so there was no error but it was to restrict users from using card types because some countries some cards are not supported

    Please correct me if i am wrong

    Thank you

    Thanks for the reply. You are correct to say it makes sense if the merchant does not accept Visa, but that error message is universal. So if a mistake is made somewhere else on the form validation that doesn’t allow processing, the message does not make sense.

    What if you made it a setting in the plugin where the user could save a custom error notice? That way it is not hardcoded in the plugin.

    Supporting free plugins always is not easy ?? and there a lot of developers to work around any one needs can get it customized.

    I understand it would take work on a free plugin. I already have the text changed on my website. My concern is that I disabled update notifications so I don’t lose the changes in the core file. With this suggestion, users would be able to update the text to something more natural.

    If the plugin’s language is English, “Merchant do not support accepting in ” is not a proper translation.

    You know what my friend users do care to update all time and sometime dont care until its not necessary or recommended like Akamai update is necessary after 30 June in this case but developers also expect to be taken care off so thats how out community grows

    sharing and caring for each other.
