myCred WooCommerce Plus – Important Notices
While WooCommerce Plus 1.8 brings several improvements, there are some important notices that we want you to be aware of:
Undo Partial Payment Limitation: The “Undo partial payment” feature is currently not supported in cart and checkout blocks.
Partial Payment Changes: A couple of settings offered have been depreciated due to the limitations imposed by WooCommerce. The settings include:
- Pay for Shipping (only from “Points to WooCommerce Coupon”)
- Pay for Tax
Shipping Configuration: If the “Pay for Shipping” option in partial payments is enabled, it’s necessary to have a free shipping method ‘enabled’ in your shipping region. This method should be set to require “A valid free shipping coupon” for smooth and valid functionality.

NOTE: It is better to test the update in a staging environment before you apply it to your live website. This lets you check your setup’s compatibility and mark any potential issues.
