    Hi @dotlicious

    That error most likely is triggered by the way your server handles sessions. Here’s a few things to try:

    Sessions — WordPress default sessions sometimes don’t work well with certain hosts. There’s two main ways to set your site to have more reliable sessions with Give:

    a. Set this in your wp-config.php file: define( 'GIVE_USE_PHP_SESSIONS' , false);

    b. Try using this free plugin which switches your site to use native PHP Sessions instead: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-native-php-sessions/

    Note that you should not do BOTH of those methods, just one then test, then the other (if necessary) then test).

    Let me know how that goes for you.
