In April our electronic payments processor plugin (Authorize.net) for the WordPress based Maryland Grapes website started malfunctioning.
After some research DataChieve learned the plugin had not been updated since 2021 and was missing security programming needed to process payments.
Remedies:
- We are back to PayPal for electronic payments.
- We added a pay-by-mail form.
We will contact people individually who have pending renewals that did not go through.
Thank you for your understanding!
It is not lost on us this happened on or around April Fools Day.
