WordPress and ClassicPress plugin updates

Payment Gateway Stats 3.1 – More accurate stats

Payment Gateway Stats 3.0 and newer works with modern WooCommerce versions again. Meaning WooCommerce version 5 and newer.

Version 3.1, this update, has been tested in WooCommerce 10.4 and fixes a the discovery query for Payment Methods. A number of payment gateway plugins combine several payment methods into one option in WooCommerce. For example – the PayPal plugin I use combines Paypal, Venmo, Apple Pay and Google Pay into one payment option. All of these methods would show up as “PayPal” in Payment Gateway Stats.

As a quirk, if the first found transaction happened to be through, say, Apple Pay. All PayPal payments would show up as Apple Pay. This causes confusion for you as a user. It certainly did for me when I found this out today. So an immediate fix was needed.

Now, with the new query, these are split out into their ‘sub titles’ and the plugin relies a bit more on the parsed title for splitting up payment methods. Apple Pay is Apple Pay, and PayPal is Paypal, even if they’re paid for through the same payment method. Simple as that.

Changes in Payment Gateway Stats

Update – Payment gateways accepting various methods on one gateway are now shown accurately

Matomo Tracker 1.3.1 – Updated dashboard

This update updates the dashboard for Matomo Tracker to be more in line with other plugins. The way translatuons work has been updated to work with modern WordPress.

Matomo Analytics is more better

With the increasing distrust of big tech companies like Google and Facebook, Matomo sits comfortably to host your website analytics securely and privately. With Matomo you can track stats for your website and other things, like an App, on your terms. Without some other company looking over your shoulder. Your analytics are yours, and nobody has access to them.

That’s great. For me, Matomo replaced Google Analytics entirely. I ditched Jetpack Stats and now rely on Matomo for all of my tracking. I track emails, RSS feeds and just common website stats. And I use my Matomo Analytics plugin to do so. It’s simple and ‘more better’!

change – Dashboard tweaks
update – Action links
i18n – Added missing translation strings

The download for Matomo Tracker should show up in your dashboard. Or you can download the plugin for free here: https://ajdg.solutions/product/matomo-tracker/.

No-Bot Registration 2.4 – Improved translation support

Another quick update for No-Bot Registration. Version 2.4 improves the formatting of the username blacklist. A few missing translation strings were added and the plugin now supports the more modern way of translation where the plugin slug must match the translation slug.

This also means that added translations should now ‘just’ work.

Compatible with ClassicPress

No-Bot Registration, like most of my plugins, is fully compatible with ClassicPress. ClassicPress is an excellent alternative for WordPress, especially if you do not like the Gutenberg block editor or the general direction WordPress as a platform is headed in. This website uses ClassicPress and has done so since 2021. It looks and feels like WordPress and can even use most of its plugins and themes.

PayPal Surcharge 1.3.6 – Updates for updates

Paypal Surcharge has recently been updated to work work with the all new Update API for easier and faster automatic updates. This version improves on that system. The Update code has a number of improvements and new features. For example it handles errors better and for update checks it no longer contacts WordPress.org.

On top of that, AJdG PayPal Surcharge has been tested in WooCommerce 10.1.0 and WordPress 6.8.2.

What is PayPal Surcharge?

With PayPal Surcharge you can automagically add a small usage fee to your orders. This is mainly meant to off-set PayPal’s high transaction costs or to share the burden of dispute charges and chargebacks.
At checkout the plugin adds your percentage or fixed fee to the cart when the customer selects PayPal for the payment option.
