Login screen waiting for paypal logger eh?
-
When I go to login on my WC enabled site, and use the ‘Lost Password’ link, I see a couple of calls waiting for PayPal. Why is this?
Here’s the url which is being (erroneously imho.) called: https://www.paypal.com/xoplatform/logger/api/logger
I’m using WC 5.5.2 with the new WC PayPal Payments 1.4.0
FYI. I reported this initially under WooCommerce here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/paypal-logger-eh/#post-14737296 and they sent me here.

hi @niklasinpsyde,
thanks for getting back to me.
Yes, I’ve discovered this setting finally under WooCommerce->Settings->PayPal->MiniCart and switched it off. This appears to have stopped the erroneous paypal api check with every URL request on the site. So this is good. Thank you.
However, I’d recommend you to ship this plugin with this preset to UNCHECKED. As it stands all sites with WC + PayPal (most of them?) will be calling, and waiting for, a paypal API lookup with every single page request on their entire site. Including any pages which have nothing to do with any shop or product whatsoever! This cannot be a good thing. If anything, the paypal API should *only* ever be loaded for shop or product pages, surely?
All the same, thanks for the help to localize and workaround the immediate problem.
