Hello...

I am running a community, Xenforo software. When folks purchase a site supporter - It takes them to the PayPal (PayPal url) screen to Complete the purchase. For the last 48 hours, I have had 7 people and 2 tests of my own, Where the COMPLETE PURCHASE button is not working at all to complete the purchase. It seems dead. I clicked it and clicked it and clicked it as have others and nothing.

We have no server errors, no software errors in logs, and no console errors showing when in the PayPal url to complete this. Any ideas? New issue. Never had anything like it in years. Oh, it is happening on 2 communities, have not tested the others yet.

Do you mean to say that if you require an address that the "Complete Purchase" button will function properly?

Yes. I made the change and so far so good 🙂

 

I hope to change it back to no address once they fix it.

The complete purchase button does nothing (when tapped) on iOS devices.

I tried changing my buttons to require a shipping address but that didn't make any difference. Has this worked for anyone else?

Yes, it worked for me. I have multiple buttons on my site and I changed them to require the shipping address.

Same problem, the 'Complete Purchase' button doesn't work (although I had a single successful transaction overnight for some reason). I have tried again just now and the problem persists.

 

I also filled out a support ticket about 12 hours ago. The response email stated that 'The PayPal Product Developers are currently looking into this issue', but I don't know whether this is something that is written into every response, and is generic?
