Unable to get past Step 4 of 7 on Dashboard
-
Hello,
This issue has been present ever since installing WooCommerce, but has never been resolved. The store works, but it really annoys me that this box is still on the dashboard stating:
‘You’re almost there. Once you complete store setup you can start receiving orders.’
This is false, as I can already receive store orders, and I have no way of completing store set up. Because when I click ‘Start selling’, it then takes me to a blank page with the console error:
GET https://nirvanalight.com/wp-json/wc-admin/onboarding/tasks?_locale=user 500
When I try to view that URL in a new tab, I see the following message:
{"code":"woocommerce_rest_cannot_create","message":"Sorry, you are not allowed to retrieve onboarding tasks.","data":{"status":401}}
It seems I am completely stuck in this part of the ‘Store setup’ and cannot proceed any further.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for sending the System Status Report.
Can you please try to perform a full conflict test to rule out any possibility of conflict made by your theme or any third-party plugin present on your site?

If this was caused by a third-party plugin, it would be best to reach out to the developers for further assistance here.
Let us know how it goes!

Hi there,
Just letting you know I will try to do this on the staging site, and will let you know what this results in.
Thanks for trying this on a staging site.
You can create a staging site using a plugin called WP Staging.
Let us know your results!
Hi there,
So I deactivated all plugins except WooCommerce, and went back to the ‘Start selling’ button, which did show up the step 4, which is enabling a payment provider.
However, I don’t need to do any of these steps (it is trying to force me to set up WooCommerce payments). There is no option to Skip, or ignore this step.
And now I’m stuck because I went to install WooCommerce payments just to get past this step, but it’s now stuck in a loop because it’s telling me I need to log in to WordPress.com.
There is no option to skip any of these steps, you are forcing people to set up WooCommerce Payments.
Please advise how I can remove the wizard, or tell WooCommerce that this is all completed?
The only thing I can do to actually fix this, is to hide the panel from displaying on the Dashboard, but this is not fixing the issue.
You need to provide a way to skip steps.
Can you please share with us a clear screenshot of what you see on your end so that we could address you more effectively?
If you don’t already have a screenshot service installed, you can try https://snipboard.io or https://skitch.com/. You can share the direct link to the image as a response to this topic.
It’s just awful (the wizard).
So I’ve got this on the dashboard (https://snipboard.io/ClFA1P.jpg)
However, most of these options don’t apply to me so I want to skip them, but I can’t. It’s forcing me to go through them. (https://snipboard.io/FKUJmY.jpg)
For some reason I’m stuck with WooCommerce Payments still showing up even after I’ve disabled the plugin. I went through shipping (this doesn’t apply), and even after completing this, it’s still showing up as an undone step.
So how can I just mark all of these remaining items as skipped or done?
Hello @supportedbusiness,
However, most of these options don’t apply to me so I want to skip them, but I can’t. It’s forcing me to go through them. (https://snipboard.io/FKUJmY.jpg)
If I understand you correctly, you want to skip the WooCOmmerce setup wizard.
You should be able to do it from here:

Look forward to hearing back from you.
