Software gets updated and things break… this is normal. However, it’s not normal for a developer to ignore these bugs for months at a time. * [@ishanverma](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ishanverma/), [your website](http://www.phptubelight.com) has been down for a couple months.

The best they have available for someone like myself without a SSL certificate is Direct Post Method (DPM), and I just don’t feel confident enough that someone won’t try to hack the form to route the CC data somewhere else. All you have to do is right click and select‘ View Source’ to get the merchant’s API login ID. The transaction key doesn’t appear to be in the form at least, but it’s still not secure enough for me. I would rather have all that responsibility on Authorize.net’s shoulder. * I sent Woothemes an email to see if they have any plans to offer a SIM plugin, but haven’t heard anything yet. * [sparky672](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sparky672/) * (@sparky672) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-message-302/#post-4711338) * It’s hard to believe that WooCommerce hasn’t already thought of all this. As popular as it is, I think if this was a real security issue, you’d have thousands of sites failing their PCI compliance. * What about the CIM version then? Requires an SSL certificate though… * [http://www.woothemes.com/products/authorize-net-cim/](http://www.woothemes.com/products/authorize-net-cim/) * [fkildoo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fkildoo/) * (@fkildoo) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-message-302/#post-4711339) * I agree. I have done so much research on the DPM and really debated whether or not to use it. Technically it does pass PCI compliance standards because the cc data never is collected or stored on your server. Many think it’s safe and it doesn’t require a SSL certificate. However, a certificate is still highly recommended in order to display “https” in the browser URL and promote customer confidence. I know I wouldn’t feel confident putting in credit card data without it. * Anyhow, an update on my issue…. I did another test on my site and everything is working for me just as it should. Now the real test is to see if it works for the customers. Just have to wait for a transaction to come through.
