 * If I enable this plugin and try and checkout on a virtual product all billing
   fields become optional. If I disable this plugin they switch back to required.
   I am also using square and order test gateways on some sites that are haiving
   this issue and some I am using this plus order test, and others this, square,
   and checks.

 * Hi [@7thcircle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/7thcircle/),
 * What version of PayPal Checkout are you currently on?
 * Also, could you please verify that the `require billing address` option in the
   payment gateway settings is enabled:

 * Plugin is 1.6.17
 * I can not enable the require billing option because it will break Meetup.com 
   and their ability for me to take payments.
 * I have a temporary fix
 * add_filter( ‘woocommerce_paypal_express_checkout_address_not_required’, ‘__return_false’);

 * I’m glad to hear you were able to find a workaround for this! If you decide to
   test with enabling the `require billing address` and it still does not work, 
   do open a new forum thread with us.
 * Cheers!
