One of the recent updates (1.4.0 or 1.4.1) somehow cleared the live account (non-
sandbox) merchant ID causing my site to have broken donations without notifying 
me… I restored from backup for now until I found a better solution…

I tried for a few hours to deactivate this plugin and some of the ways I saw online
seemed unsafe to me, so I didn’t do it. I found a plugin that will allow you to 
disable the plugin on pages that’s called “freesoul deactivate plugin”. It doesn’t
actually delete the plugin though. I saw that this has been happening for a few 
years on old posts and no fix has been made. This should not be on wordpress plugins
if you can’t remove it. I would report this plugin if I knew how.

Plug-in doesn’t work. Can’t deactivate. Can’t remove. Try something else.

I wanted to test this plugin to see if this is the one I wanted to go with and it
worked as expected. I want to test out another donation solution and I can’t deactivate
this plugin without getting a Wordpress Critical Error prompt. No issues deactivating
other plugins.

 [agon024](https://profiles.wordpress.org/agon024/) 24 Janaayo, 2023

The plugin puts a DIV around the button form and doesn’t give you a way to add a
class to it. Pretty simple to incorporate this. Posted the question on the support
forum and after seven days still havn’t gotten a response.

   left, center, and right.
