Whatever it’s doing in the backend causes my site to slow down drastically. Checkout takes 5+ seconds to load. Disabling the plugin and the checkout loads almost instantly. The settings page in the admin is also completely busted. Just not a good plugin which is a bummer as I am a huge fan of Stripe normally.
After upgrading to the new 2.0 version, shipping is no longer being captured in Stripe and all of our customers are getting free shipping. This is very bad. How do I revert back to the old version ASAP?
Stripe Tax had been working fine and it’s my fault for having auto updates on but it had not been an issue until now. When the new version released it seem to create some type of conflict with my shipping plugin(Canada Post Shipping for WooCommerce). Customers were seeing FREE on the shipping cost in the total calculations even though we do not offer free shipping and they had to click on a paid option. It not only showed free shipping but did not charge the tax on the tax eligible shipping. The first time since my store opened I have had to refund customers and cancel orders because they thought we were trying to deceive them with the hidden shipping fees.
For now it is working again with 1.2.4 but as taxes evolve I can’t stay on an outdated version.
