Hi, I had the same issue. ‘hidden’ products would be hidden from the product search but not from general site search. I added a product category called “hide-from-search” and added the following action hook to functions.php.

This excludes any product in that category from the search results. You still need to hide the product to remove it from up-sell/cross-sell etc.

function exclude_product_category_from_search ( $query ) {
    global $wp_the_query;
    if($query === $wp_the_query && $query->is_search() && !is_admin()) {
        $tax_query = array(
            array(
                'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
                'field' => 'slug',
                'terms' => 'hide-from-search',
                'operator' => 'NOT IN',
            )
        );
        $query->set( 'tax_query', $tax_query );
    }
}
add_filter('pre_get_posts','exclude_product_category_from_search');

Hope it helps.

FYI: I had the same Fatal error but I did not have OrbitFox installed.

Upgrading to v2.3.2 solved the issue.

Hi. That fixed it – thank you for the super fast turn-around!

After upgrading to v4.x I also had to reconnect to my Sirv account using Sirv login details and re-enable lazy load etc. Seems old settings were lost.

There was a line in the release notes about using account login rather than amazon credentials, but it could probably have been a bit more explicit about needing to reconnect.

Regardless, all is well and thanks again for the responsive support ?? -C

Hi. Is there any progress on wp5.x compatibility. Just noticed the same problem and have lost 30+ mp3 links after pages edited and then MP3 link removed by editor.

+1 one for awesome plugin but current issue is getting painful.

thanks, Colin

Hi. just tested and no, it does the same thing when manually adding coupon.
Any plans to support WC Subscriptions? -C

Hi @oliver, @gingeralfie. I have a feeling that I may have had sandbox enabled for my test products which would explain the unexplained behavior! Unfortunately I have uninstalled the plugin so I cannot check and have no funding to go back and retest.

As a suggestion for more easily identifying this issue for other users, perhaps something could be output in the logs to indicate that sandbox mode is being picked up from the product rather than the gateway config. I see the utility of being able to define it on a per product basis but it is an unusual feature in my limited experience and so easily forgotten.

Thanks for a great support experience and next time I do a Woo setup, I’ll be back to this plugin ??

cheers, Colin

Hi Oliver, Having reviewed how we want to use the plugin I realise that we are not using any of the behavior over and above what the default Woo PayPal gateway offers. My client cannot pay for more time to debug this so I have swapped back to the default Woo plugin which works as expected.

Sorry, this will have to stay as one of those weird mysteries of our local config. It worked on our staging system but refused to behave on the live platform so there is something odd between the config’s.

thanks, Colin

Hi, I just uninstalled the plugin and reinstalled it. But I still have the same problem – however, the old config was still there after I reinstalled it so the uninstall didn’t clear everything out.

So, I found the debug file. I see that “TestMode: 1” is logged even though I have set the config to Live gateway. So the plugin config must be messed up somewhere.

I just added an invalid ‘Live API User Name’ and tried to checkout and it made no difference. I set the live user back to valid entry and I added an invalid ‘Sandbox API User Name’ and tried to checkout, I get an error returned saying ‘10002 – Security header is not valid’ even though the config is set to use the Live setting. So further evidence that the live config is not being used, only the sandbox config.

How can I uninstall and clear all old config before reinstalling?

cheers, C

Hi, I have captured the http req/resp from the Woo Checkout button. We can see that Woo/PP Express is redirecting the customer (via 302) to PP Sandbox. Not sure how caching would get in the way of this. Help!

cheers, Colin

Following the redirect, the paypal sandbox login is displayed.

Hi. I just setup live PP credentials on our test system and this works as expected! Is there any debugging hints you can give me to be able to track what on our live system is causing the issue.

The dev system does not go thru Cloudflare, but that should not be an issue as I cleaned it out on live as mentioned above.

Hi Oliver. sorry for the late rreply but got pulled off to something else.

I tried again today and I am seeing the same issue. I purged Cloudflare CDN and turned on it’s dev mode and also purged the local WP cache but still seeing the same problem – going to https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout&useraction=continue&token=EC-5xxxxxxxxxxx rather than live PP site.

Any ideas?

cheers, Colin
