FAQ

Why would I want to load scripts on all pages?

There are a few reasons why a WordPress plugin might include a setting to force the loading of scripts on all pages:

1. The plugin may rely on a specific script or set of scripts in order to function properly. By forcing these scripts to load on all pages, the plugin can ensure that it will work as intended, regardless of which page a user is on.

2. Some optimization plugins, such as caching plugins, can cause issues with certain scripts by preventing them from loading or executing properly. By forcing the scripts to load on all pages, the plugin developer can work around these issues and ensure that their plugin functions as intended.

3. In some cases, a plugin might include a setting to force the loading of scripts on all pages in order to improve the plugin's performance. For example, the plugin might include a script that helps to optimize the way it retrieves and displays data, and forcing this script to load on all pages could help to improve the overall speed and performance of the plugin.

Overall, the goal of forcing the loading of scripts on all pages is to ensure that a plugin functions properly and delivers the desired functionality to users.

Why is the PayPal payment popup opening and closing?

It may indicate that you have not set up your plugin correctly, possibly by using a sandbox API key with a live mode plugin or vice versa.

When creating a Client ID in PayPal, make sure to create a LIVE APP to accept payments. Be aware that PayPal defaults to the Sandbox tab during setup, so you will need to switch to the LIVE APP tab before creating API keys.
