Getting code=EWP_SETTINGS error when trying to connect to PayPal
Hi
I am getting the following errorhttps://www.paypal.com/webapps/shoppingcart/error?flowlogging_id=7645545e91ba4&code=EWP_SETTINGSwhen I try to connect to PayPal from my Wordpress Woocommerce site. I have no idea what this means and cannot find any help connected with it on WooCommerce, Wordpress or PayPal. I assume I have set something up incorrectly or have missed something but I don't know what. Any help would be appreciated.
Re: Getting code=EWP_SETTINGS error when trying to connect to PayPal
By default, you accept payments from encrypted and unencrypted buttons. For additional security, you can prevent buyers from sending payments to you through unencrypted buttons.
After you change this setting, we reject payments from your buyers who click an unencrypted Buy Now button, an unencrypted Donation button, or an unencrypted Subscription button. This is when you see EWP_SETTINGS error message.
If you previously blocked payments from unencrypted buttons, here’s how to accept all payments:
Log in to your PayPal account.
Click the Business Profile icon beside "Log Out" and selectProfile and settings.
ClickMy Selling tools.
ClickUpdatenear 'Website preferences.'
Select ‘Off’ next to ‘Block Non-encrypted Website Payment
Once you turn off this setting you will no longer receive the error message.
Re: Getting code=EWP_SETTINGS error when trying to connect to PayPal
Hi,
I had the same problem on my woocommerce-paypal website. Deactivating the "‘Block Non-encrypted Website Payment" worked for me but what concerns me is that my website is fully in HTTPS (and supports TLS 1.2) so i do not understand why when activating this feature (in order to gain more security for my clients) nothing works. Now i'm not sure that the link between my store and paypal is secure.
@MTS_Jennifer could you elaborate in more details this solution ? Is it Safe to use?
Re: Getting code=EWP_SETTINGS error when trying to connect to PayPal
I believe the problem is in the PayPal configuration. You need to allow un-encrypted websites to make payments to paypal. In order to do so, login to your PayPal account then:
Profile & Settings --> My Selling Tools --> Website Preferences
Go down to the section "Encrypted Website Payments" and select "off" to the "Block Non-encrypted Website Payment:"
Re: Getting code=EWP_SETTINGS error when trying to connect to PayPal
I have turned off the "Block Non-encrypted Website Payment:" setting and I am still getting this error when trying to set up WooCommerce. I've installed WordPress and WooCommerce on two different servers and can't seem to solve this issue. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated!
some time has passed and i still would like to know why i have to turn off a security feature even when all the requirements are met (as stated by @Antigravity)
Re: Getting code=EWP_SETTINGS error when trying to connect to PayPal
I have exactly the same problem... and the solution about disconnecting the Encrypted Feature worked for me. Now, I´m also concerned about the security with the transactions, since my website is fyully in HTTPS but I have to disconnect the Encrypted transactions to sell

Hi Everyone,
The EWP Settings are not designed for anyone using a 3rd Party Shopping Cart. These settings are specific to using a manually created PayPal button and a 3rd party encryption software.
Here are the general details of this setting from the PayPal Developer site:
하지만 최근 Divi 테마를 업데이트한 후에 약간의 문제가 발생했습니다. 언어가 자동으로 영어로 바뀐 것을 발견했습니다.
매우 특이하게 사이트 언어가"English (United States)"로 바뀌어져 있습니다. 사이트 언어를 한글로 바꾸고 저장해도 언어가 계속 영어로 유지되었습니다.
이 문제를 Divi 포럼에 문의해보니 Divi 번역 비활성화 기능을 Disabled로 바꾼 후에 테스트해보라고 하네요.
Divi > Theme Options (테마 옵션) > General (일반)에서Disable Translations(번역 사용 안 함)를Enabled에서Disabled로 바꾸니 문제가 해결되었습니다. 일종의 버그 같습니다. 아마 추후 업데이트에서 이 문제가 해결되지 않을까 생각됩니다.
Divi 테마에 포함된 한글 번역이 어색한 부분이 제법 있어서 저는 Divi 번역을 비활성화한 상태에서 사용해왔습니다. 당분간 어쩔 수 없이 번역을 활성화한 상태에서 사용해야 할 것 같습니다.
Woocommerce 와 WPML 환경하에서 PG를 갈라서 쓰고싶어서 쓰는 플러그인인데 상당히 융통성이 없는 플러그인이다.
그러니까 말인 즉슨, 무조건 기준이 상점통화를 기준으로 출발한다는 것인데,
USD 1 $ = KRW 1210.00 \
이런 개념이라는 것이다. 변동가능한 값은 기준통화가 아닌 오른쪽의 가변변수로 놓여야 할 통화에 불가능 하다는 것.
얘네가 자동으로 환율전환을 하는 사이트로 2가지를 소개해주고 있는데, 걔네들도 결국은 실시간으로 데몬화시켜서 서버측에서 돌려다 쓰는 것인데다가, 그걸 JSON Format으로 던져다가 업그레이드 하는 수준이고
그거 가지고 달에 10달러 (약 만원) 씩 뜯어먹는다. 오지게 뜯어먹는다.
그런데 더 의아한건 거기서는 기준 통화 (Source)를 USD가 아니라 KRW로 바꿀 수 있는 기능을 이미 제공하고 있음에도 불구하고, WPML Multiligual 에서는 해당 부분을 지원하지 않는 다는 것이다.
결국은 쓸려면 커스터마이징을 거쳐야한다.
WooCommerce Multilingual, includes support for running a multilingual e-commerce site with multiple currencies, independent of the site’s languages. You can set pricing using a configurable exchange rates map or per product. On the front-end, users will be able to switch between the different available currencies, like they switch languages.
Configuring currencies per language
It is possible to show specific currencies on specific languages and also configure default currencies for distinct languages. This is done on theWooCommerce -> WooCommerce Multilingualpage, under theMulti-currencytab.
Multi-currency Settings
This helps with situations when products in certain languages need to be ordered only in a precise currency. Additionally, default currencies can be set for specific languages so, by default, the users will see product prices in a given currency when they switch to a different language on the front end. TheKeep option means that the currency will not change when the language is being changed.
When a new currency is added it is being included by default on all languages and can easily be turned off using the appropriate checkboxes.
Each custom currency must have an associated exchange rate. This will be relative to the site’s default currency and can be changed anytime. When the exchange rate changes all prices in the custom currencies will change accordingly, except prices included in orders that have already been placed.
Payment gateways settings
By clicking onEditcurrencies settings icon, under theMulti-currencytab, you can access the set of options related to currency display, exchange rate, andPayment Gatewaysoptions.
Currently, supported payment gateways are Paypal, Stripe, and BACS.
Since not all payment gateways accept all currencies you can define ways to automatically make a conversion before making the transaction in a supported currency.
Currency settings
On the checkout page, a notice will show what currency will be used in the transaction if it is different than the one already selected by the user. The total amount will also be displayed in the converted currency.
Payment notice on a checkout page
Using automatic exchange rates
WooCommerce Multilingual allows you to set up automatic exchange rates for your store. There are three options to set for this features.
Use theExchange rates sourceto select the source of the exchange rates data. You can choose from two renowned services includingFixer.ioandcurrencylayer.
You can set an additionalLifting chargepercentage to adjust the final,effectiveexchange rate. This is useful for international transactions that may add additional charges.
The following is how the effective rate is calculated, based on the set lifting charge: Effective Rate = Service Rate x (1 + Lifting Charge / 100)
Finally, you can also set how frequently the automatic exchange rates will be updated for your store. Updates can be set to happen on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. By default, this is set to manual update.
Settings for the automatic exchange rates
Configure distinct prices for different currencies
WooCommerce Multilingual also includes the option to set custom prices in different currencies. These will be fixed and will override the prices automatically determined by the exchange rate.
Setting custom prices in different currencies can be enabled from the post editor, under the fields forRegular PriceandSale Price(for the default currency). These prices will override the prices determined automatically based on the exchange rate. To revert to using the automatic prices you simply have to remove the custom prices and update the product.
These prices will override the prices determined automatically based on the exchange rate. To revert to using the automatic prices you need to remove the custom prices and update the product.
Setting Custom Prices
A similar interface exists on the variable products editing screen with the possibility of adding custom prices for some, or all variations, or for some, or all custom currencies.
Orders currencies
Orders will have a specific currency associated with them. It is the currency that the user was using when placing the order. This will also be reflected on the back-end, where on theOrderspage, each order shows the total in the corresponding currency. On this page, it is also possible to filter the orders by currency.
Orders Filtered By Currency
Since all created orders will have a currency associated, the WooCommerce reports will be broken down by currency.
Reports Filtered By Currency
Adding a currency switcher to the front-end
Once you have added the support for multiple currencies, you should display a currency switcher in your site’s theme. You can display the currency switcher with a shortcode or as a hook.
The shortcode version is the most convenient when you display the currency switcher inline with WordPress content, for example in Content Templates, by the Viewsplugin.
Outputs a basic drop-down menu with currency codes for option values. The client’s current currency or the configured default currency for a specific language will be auto-selected.
Using custom switchers
Besides these defaultswitcher_styleoptions, you can also use your custom ones, defined by thecustom currency switcher you design using template files. In this case,you need to use the correct slugthat identifies your custom currency switcher.
The slug for your custom switcher is generated depending on the sanitized name of your template, as defined in itsconfig.jsonfile, and the template’s location:
Location of the custom currency switcher
How the slug is generated
Theme folder
Theme slug + sanitized switcher name
Plugin folder
Plugin slug + sanitized switcher name
“uploads” folder
“uploads-” + sanitized switcher name
Let’s consider the following example:
The name of your custom currency switcher is “My custom switcher”.
You are using the Twenty Seventeen theme and the template files for your switchers are located in the theme’s folder.
The slug to use with your custom switcher istwenty-seventeen-my-custom-switcher, as shown in the following example.
The PHP code version is best when you manually add the currency switcher to PHP templates.
Sample of currencies switcher display on the frontend
Currency switcher widget
The currency switcher can also be added to a template as a standard WordPress widget.
Currency switcher options
Options for the currency switcher can be configured on theMulti-currency tab of WooCommerce Multilingual main settings page.
Currency switcher options allow you to:
Preview how the switcher will look like on the front-end before applying changes.
Set the switcher style.
Arrange the order of currencies in the switcher using drag-and-drop.
Adjust the output of the switcher.
Enable or disable the showing of a currency selector on the product page template.
Currency Switcher Options
Adjusting the output of the switcher
You can customize the template used for the currency switcher by using the four parameters:
%name%– full name of the currency, for example “Euro”
%symbol%– the standard symbol that represents the currency, for example “$” or “€”.
%code%– the standard code that represents the currency, for example “USD”, for United States Dollar.
%subtotal%– total costs of the current order (basket), without shipping costs and additional taxes. Subtotal is the formatted price and includes the currency symbol positioned according to the currency options set in WooCommerce settings.
Starting with version 3.9, WooCommerce Multilingual allows you to use the following HTML tags to customize the output of the switcher:img,span,em,strongandu.Please note that these tags can only be used when the currency switcher style is set toList of currencies. This stems from theofficial HTML standards for theselecttag.
Currencies options and rounding rules
Currency Rounding Rules
Besides the exchange rate, it is possible to configure, for each separate currency, things like the currency position, separator for thousands, decimal separator and number of decimals – similar to how these can be defined for the default WooCommerce Currency in the standard WooCommerce screen.
When you set pricing per currency, you can have WooCommerce Multilingual to auto-convert the prices, while keeping them “elegant”. This is possible with the use of rounding rules that can be configured next to the general currency options.
The prices that are determined automatically can be rounded to the nearest integer.
Increment for nearest integer:
1454.07 becomes 1454 when this value is 1
1454.07 becomes 1450 when this value is 10
1454.07 becomes 1500 when this value is 100
Autosubtract amount: the value to be subtracted from the amount obtained previously.
For 1454.07, when the increment for the nearest integer is 100 and the auto-subtract amount is 1, the resulting amount is 1499.
Developer information – using low-level hooks to setup your own multi-currency logic
WooCommerce Multilingual definesa set of filters and hooksthat can be used by 3rd party plugins to implement multi-currency logic when WooCommerce and WooCommmerce Multilingual are set up and running. With this, the users will be able to see prices in their preferred currency (the price amounts are being determined based on the currencies exchange rates map). The orders will be placed in the currency that the user selects on the front-end.
우커머스 사용시에 원화에서 페이팔을 사용하게 해줄 수 있는 것이지만, Pro 플러그인을 끌어다 써야하기에 좀 의아한 부분이 있는 플러그인이다. 해당 부분에 있어서 Pro 플러그인을 쓸 수 없는 상황이라면, 네이버 환율 등을 php에서 끌어다가 파싱해서 써야하는 단점도 의외로 존재한다.
WPML에서 PG를 분리해서 사용하는 경우에는 사실상 쓸모가 없는 내용이였지만, 생각보다 유익해 보이기에 긁어온다.
페이팔 사용 설정
워드프레스 우커머스로 쇼핑몰을 운영할때 가장 기본적으로 설정하는 것이 상점의 기본 통화입니다. 이 상점의 기본통화는 상품진열과 함께 결제 과정에서 기본이 되는 통화를 설정하는 것입니다. 이 때 한국 쇼핑몰의 경우 원(￦) 단위를 설정합니다.
<우커머스 쇼핑몰의 기본 통화 설정>
이 경우 우커머스의 결제 방법 중 페이팔은 활성화 되지 않습니다.
<우커머스에서 한국 통화 설정시 페이팔 비활성화>
이 때 아래의 코드를 사용중인차일드 테마의 functions.php 파일 하단에 입력하면 페이팔 사용이 가능해 집니다.
위와 같이 페이팔이 결제 수단에서 가능하도록 설정 해 두더라도 문제가 있습니다. 페이팔에서 원화를 지원하지 않기 때문에 실제 페이팔 결제로 넘어갈 때 현재 상품의 가격이 페이팔이 지원하는 통화로 환산되어 넘겨지지 않는다는 것입니다. 다시 말하면 상품의 가격이 10,000원(￦) 일 경우 페이팔 결제로 넘어갈 때 10,000 이라는 값과 페이팔에서는 원화(￦) 결제가 없으므로 기본 통화인 $가 합쳐져서 10,000$ 가 결제화면에 나타나는 것입니다. (참고현재 페이팔이 지원하는 통화) 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 결제가 넘어갈 때 상품의 가격을 페이팔이 지원하는 통화 단위로 환산 해 주는 기능이 필요합니다.
< PAYPAL CURRENCY CONVERTER PRO FOR WOOCOMMERCE 플러그인 설치후 메뉴>
안에서 통화의 환율을 설정해 줍니다.
<페이팔 결제를 위한 통화 환율 설정>
기준이 되는 통화(현재 기본설정 되어 있는 원)를 목표통화(달러)로 환전하기위한 비율을 적용하는 것입니다. 환율은 내가 임의의 값으로 입력해도 되고, 야후 Finance 등의 도움을 받을수도 있습니다.
페이팔 결제의 문제
위에서 처럼 설정하면 페이팔 결제가 가능해 지고 결제시 페이팔에서 지원하는 기본 통화인 달러로 환산된 가격을 결제 받을 수 있게 됩니다.
하지만 이 결제 방법은 쇼핑몰의 점주가 페이팔 한국계정을 사용하는 경우, 같은 한국 계정을 가진 사람에게 결제를 받을 수 없습니다. 현재 대한민국에서의 규정이 그렇습니다.(페이팔로 한국인 상호간 거래 불가)
<한국인 상호간 페이팔 결제 수단 사용 불가>
그러므로 해외 거주하는 사람이 한국의 원화 결제 수단이 없는 경우, 페이팔로 결제를 할 수 있도록 할 때 제공 할 수 있는 방법입니다.
참고
이 글에서 소개 한 것 처럼 원화를 달러로 환산해서 결제 받을 수 있도록 하는데 사용 할 수 있는 방법으로WooCommerce Currency Switcher플러그인을 사용 할 수도 있습니다. 이 플러그인은 환율을 변경하는 스위치를 웹사이트에 표시하고, 사용자가 스위치 변경시 선택한 통화로 환전된 가격을 우커머스 상품에 표시하며, 결제시에도 변경된 통화를 사용하도록 해 줍니다. 여러가지 통화를 동시에 제공할수 있어서 필요시에 유용합니다.
