 * Hello, David my name is Allen, I’m trying to us your plugin but I’m running into
   a wall. I put in my user name and 16 digit code but I keep getting an error message,
   saying Authentication failed (403): Error=BadAuthentication any help would be
   great. I do want to buy the WooCommerce Automatic Order Printing if I can get
   help with this one.
 * Thank you

 * Hi Allen,
 * Sorry for missing this message – it looks like I wasn’t subscribed to the plugin
   forum.
 * This is now resolved – the latest release of the plugin now uses Google’s preferred
   authentication method (replacing the recently-deprecated one that was giving 
   the error). So please update to that, and retry.
 * Best wishes,
    David
