Trouble setting up PayPal Donations for GiveWP in WordPress

[sdarnowskycfm]

My religious organization's WordPress website currently uses the GiveWP plugin to process donations. it is currently working fine using the PayPal Standard gateway. However, we're getting messages in the WordPress dashboard that PayPal Standard is at some future point no longer going to be supported, and we need to switch to PayPal Donations. However, I'm having a great deal of difficulty doing that. When I click Connect with PayPal Live and complete the modal window, indicating that I want to use our current business account, I get prompted for information that makes no sense (for example, a religious organization has no "owner"). Even when I complete the fields to the best of my ability, at the end I just get spinning circle and the window hangs. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, or if I should try to set up a new account rather than using our existing one. 

Any suggestions?

Good day @sdarnowskycfm,

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.

Third party platforms WordPress develops their own plugins/modules.

I would suggest to please contact the support of WordPress, who should be able to help you regarding the plugins/modules setup.

Also, Please cross check your PayPal Business account and it should be verified and confirmed without any account limitations. 

Please follow the steps provided in the below external guide link :

Important : Yes, PayPal Website Payments Standard (WPS) is a legacy integration. 

We recommend merchants to integrate our latest PayPal Checkout (Smart button) product.

Please follow the steps provided in the below detailed guide links :
