 * Hi, [@codenest](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codenest/)!
 * Before anything else, can you please share a copy of your System Status Report’s
   Active Plugins section with us?
 * You can find it via WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then“
   Copy for support”. Once you’ve done that, you can paste it into your reply here.
   Again, for now, please only share the Active Plugins section with us. You can
   delete the rest of the information.
 * Alternatively, you can contact us at [WooCommerce.com > My Account > Support](https://woocommerce.com/my-account/create-a-ticket/?form=ticket)
   and share your full System Status Report with us there. You may need to create
   an account before you can access that page.
 * Please include a link to this forum thread, so that we can keep track of what’s
   already been done.
