However, all orders are coming in unauthorized. I just did a test and got this error message after making my payment at PayPal. I did get the email from PayPal confirming my payment. (Cart is v. 7.4.2 - haven't had a chance to update as I've been out of the country.) Could not connect to the URL: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr I searched the forum and found this back in 2020 but is it something I can fix or a hosting problem?

It really is time to update to the new PayPal Checkout and in the latest version it only takes a few clicks to connect.

If it was PP, wouldn't they have fixed it by now? None of the receipts are being mailed. In the interim of updating, can I just manually authorize orders and resend the receipts? Do I need to have the client available for access to PayPal after the update or do I not need them? Btw, I have one account hosted elsewhere and new orders, as of this morning, are not having the problem. Edited by - LadyM on 10/23/2023 10:35:57
