The automatic installation process is the most convenient method for adding WooCommerce to your WordPress site, as it eliminates the need for manual file handling. With this option, WordPress manages the entire file transfer process, allowing you to complete the installation without leaving your web browser.

When you\’re ready to proceed, simply click the “Install Now” button, and WordPress will automatically handle the installation for you.

FAQ

Why is my order in \’Pending Payment\’ and not cancelling when the user fails to complete the payment?
Pending Payment means the order has been received, but no payment has been made. Pending payment orders are generally awaiting customer action.

If the customer fails to complete the payment, the order will remain in \’Pending Payment\’ status until it is manually cancelled or the payment is completed unless the timeout period is reached.

The timeout period is set in the WooCommerce settings. To change the timeout period, navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Products > Inventory > Hold Stock. Adjust the timeout period as needed.

This is a WooCommerce default behavior and not specific to the Monek Gateway plugin.
