"authentication failed: The Zapier Wordpress Plugin has not been activated"

Hi there,

 

I am trying to create a zap between Square and Wordpress, however the wordpress activation in Zapier is not working - it is saying the Zapier Wordpress plugin has not been activated even though it definitely has.

 

I have deactived a security plugin and I can’t see any reason why it would be showing this,

 

Any tips? I have not been show an “Allow” or “Accept” permission popup - where would this normally show?

 

Or is the Zapier Wordpress Integration not functional at the moment?

 

Thank you.

Figured it out, it was the W3 Total Cache cacheing plugin that I use - perhaps the minifying from that plugin made disrupted the Zapier plugin

I have actioned what’s in those articles, and I have tried authenticating in a private browser - for some reason it seems to think the zapier plugin is not installed..
