Unfortunately, that now means the plugin no longer works with your existing set-up. * These are the problems that are now occurring: - Empty box on pages that do not use the plugin because they are forcing it onto every page. - Dynamic ‘unloading / removal’ of currently displaying product level set bought together products once a product variation is chosen resulting in notification‘ Permissions check failed’ inside an empty box. - Product qty increase / decrease no longer functioning. * There are other solutions but that would mean the complete removal of the plugin in DEV, new plugin and further testing, then the identification of all products using the existing plugin and similar settings then applied to the new plugin before going back live. * I will contact the plugin developers for support as it is a premium plugin however I expect them to do as most of them do and shift the blame elsewhere. * Total removal and implementation of an alternative solution could be 30-40 hours or more as I will have to go through almost every product on your website. * I’ll let you know what they say. * Best regards, * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WPC Frequently Bought Together for WooCommerce] Permissions check failed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/) * Thread Starter [Mark Griffin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markgriffin/) * (@markgriffin) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/#post-18131747) * Basically, the plugin is no longer compatible with caching. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WPC Frequently Bought Together for WooCommerce] Permissions check failed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/) * Thread Starter [Mark Griffin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markgriffin/) * (@markgriffin) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/#post-18131735) * And here’s the third issue since your great new update. THE QTY INCREASE NO LONGER WORKS. * Example: [https://www.leisurequip.com/shop/product/tylo-vista-160-steam-shower-cabin-with-stella-column/](https://www.leisurequip.com/shop/product/tylo-vista-160-steam-shower-cabin-with-stella-column/) * What a great new way to encourage me to now look for an alternative. I suppose 1 less paying customer won’t matter. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WPC Frequently Bought Together for WooCommerce] Permissions check failed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/) * Thread Starter [Mark Griffin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markgriffin/) * (@markgriffin) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/#post-18126955) * i didn’t know all that. thanks for keeping informed about the process with that enlightening statement that addresses nothing. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WPC Frequently Bought Together for WooCommerce] Permissions check failed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/) * Thread Starter [Mark Griffin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markgriffin/) * (@markgriffin) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permissions-check-failed-6/#post-18126501) * Following up on this, the issue is tied into the litespeed cache plugin. When the cache is cleared the issue no longer exists, however I expect it to re-occur once the cache is fully formed. * As an aside, this is the 2nd issue I have encountered since the last update. Seems to me you have overreached in the development of additional functionality and tarnished a useful plugin in the process. - This reply was modified 1 year, 9 months ago by [Mark Griffin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markgriffin/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WPC Frequently Bought Together for WooCommerce] Div wrap introduced on every product](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/div-wrap-introduced-on-every-product/) * Thread Starter [Mark Griffin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/markgriffin/) * (@markgriffin) * [1 year, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/div-wrap-introduced-on-every-product/#post-18112538) * Nevermind I had added this to functions.php * ```wp-block-code function hide_empty_woobt_wrap() { ?>
