OMG! I was having the same issue… also with WP Engine. At first they told me to set up a staging site and selectively test with plugin removal/deactivation.
Your way sounds a whole lot better
Hi Joseph and Mike,
During my search to find a solution to very same issue, I came across a thread that told me to add this to my css and it worked flawlessly: (I was having trouble because my Free Product would still show this PayPal button in the cart… very confusing for customers)
.woocommerce-cart #paypal-braintree-button-container {
display: none;
}
I got the suggestion from here:
Remove Braintree PayPal Checkout button from WooCommerce Cart
Thank you both for contributing to challenges such as these. It is vital to kill frustration when setting up your ecommerce.
Strike the last comment…. after I entered the advertiser ID, the warning/error went away. I was just too timid at first to move forward. All is good ☺
