We really need a separate button default text for checkout Vs cancellation of subscription!

#1

Asked already but due to EU laws and also not wanting to confuse customers confirm or similar is really not appropriate to the pro form checkout button.

There needs to be a different class for checkout button Vs the button used to cancel subscriptions. Best by changing the button class/name for the cancellation button.

E.g. in English I want the button to be called “checkout now” // and “cancel subscription” for the cancel button but I don’t know at all how to do this if they have the same text. Even more as most translation tools work for slugs. So I cannot use CSS and translate at the same time if it’s the same exact button.

It’s really tedious and leads to lot of problems with subscribers failing to cancel causing charge backs in worst case.

Provide a link to a specific page on a site which has the text you want changed. And don’t forget to specify which button / link text you want changed.

Feliz, I sent you a DM with a couple of zips for the framework and addon for you to try if you want.

I didn’t edit all the buttons, there’s a lot of them. What I did was change the cancellation ones, so they’d be different.

That way you can customize them separately, e.g. with a must-use plugin. https://s2member.com/kb-article/quick-translation-changing-wordsphrases/

Does that help? If it’s good, I’ll be including it in the next release.

Hi Christian, perfect that is just what was needed. I don’t use paypal pro forms - but don’t forget to do the same for them (not sure if paypal uses different buttons or they are also stripe submit).
Cancel Subscription is the much better default text for cancelling/ending a subscription vs checkout now.

Actually did I understand it correctly in one of the latest updates that Paypal button payment subscriptions can now also be canclled from within the website instead of needing to forward users to their paypal account? If that’s technically possible with the new paypal implementation that would be quite handy.

Edit: opened a new topic as not logged in users cannot click on the paypal unsubscribe button at all anymore.

Great! Glad it helps you.

Yes, I did it with the cancellation pro-forms for Strpie, AuthNet and PayPal.

Yes, the new PayPal Checkout cancellation button (with output=“button”), can do it directly.
