Update button code from PayPal

    Is there any way to get updated form code back from PayPal, like after changing prices of options in a dropdown?

    I created a button in WordPress, decided it was time to change the price on something (more to test it than anything), found I couldn’t do it in WP but instead had to jump back over to PayPal (which is okay, but may need to be spelled out somewhere more visible), changed the price, went back to WP, and both frontend and backend show the old price.

    It looks to me like the only time code gets stored is after it creates and stores the button in PayPal.

    Quickfix, off the top of my head would be on updating the post object in WordPress, issue a BMGetButtonDetails call to get the latest code, though I couldn’t say how well that fits into the UX.

    Right now things are pretty limited. If you need to make changes through the plugin you basically have to delete the original button and create a new one. If you make changes at PayPal it won’t sync back, as you’ve noticed.

    We do have plans to improve upon on all of this in future updates. We’re currently working on our 1.1.0 list right now which includes the ability to update existing buttons.

    We’ll be getting that finished up and released ASAP!

    We have a lot of updates done in our GitHub repo, but we’re struggling to get our final review and release of the code completed because of all the changes WooCommerce made recently causing us to focus on those plugins. We’re almost out of that mud and then we’ll be able to get this released. Hopefully within 2 or 3 weeks at the most.
