For those that stuck it out, if they had ApplePay enabled, it seems, they snuck in a Stripe &#8220;Link Pay Faster&#8221; button without asking and that has caused a myriad of issues:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; If the client had two different Stripe implementations say Woo and Give, the button was added to other implementation, Give, and those donations just stopped (broke that implementation without any error).<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; If shipping was typically handled at &#8220;checkout&#8221;, and Link was magically preconfigured in the &#8220;cart&#8221; or &#8220;product page&#8221; (possibly from prior ApplePay settings? who knows!) then customers got shipping options they didn&#8217;t want or no shipping was charged. This was especially an issue when a much earlier implementation of ApplePay gave no such option. Clients had used css to hide the not wanted ApplePay buttons. Later, when the confog option was added, it wasn&#8217;t noticed for them and Link seemed to rely on this.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The Button placement was hash coloring and placed way above the standard buttons so folks stopped using those and orders just never happened.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The Link Pak Faster setting are HIDDEN! You have to click a great deal to find it. Settings &amp; the fact that it even existed was so buried that it would not likely be noticed. Even if you were looking for it, it was hard to find (hidden!)<\/p>\n<p>These things should never &#8220;magically appear&#8221;. Folks need to be asked to enable such potentially fraught changes. This plugin is complete garbage! Use the other one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-16252845","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/16252845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/16252845\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16252985,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/16252845\/revisions\/16252985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16252845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
