If it is, then you can switch your theme back and reactivate plugins one-by-one until you find the one that is causing the issue. * You can read about testing for conflicts in our documentation here: [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/how-to-test-for-conflicts/) * Please let me know how that goes, or if you have any questions! * Thread Starter [deschong](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deschong/) * (@deschong) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13266651) * Thanks! Looking at the console, it seems like the wc-ajax=update_order_review is stalling up. * Plugin Support [Riaan K.](https://wordpress.org/support/users/riaanknoetze/) * (@riaanknoetze) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13267127) * Just to make sure: Is ajax=update_order_review working as expected after doing that conflict test that [@kellymetal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kellymetal/) asked for? * Thread Starter [deschong](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deschong/) * (@deschong) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13268864) * Hi, * Did that using health check plugin troubleshooting. Enabled just the theme ( Ciyashop child) and Woocommerce. * However, did not managed to see the products and not able to add to cart. Thus, unable to proceed into Place Order checkout plage. * Plugin Support [Kel C. a11n](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kellymetal/) * (@kellymetal) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13272656) * Hi there, * Thank you for confirming that — you tested with WooCommerce and your custom child theme. * As mentioned though, issues like the one you were seeing are _quite often_ caused by conflicts with code in custom themes. * In your last reply, do you mean that when you deactivate other plugins you are no longer able to see your products or add them to cart? If all of your products are a special product type coming from a different plugin, then that could cause issues. If that’s the case, then please test with just a simple product from the core WooCommerce plugin to see if that shows up. * I just took a look at the site again, and am no longer seeing the “spinning forever” issue on the “Place order” button. So that is a good sign. I’m unable to proceed without registering/logging in so, it’s hard to tell, but hopefully you’ve already resolved this. * ⌊Checkout page⌉⌊Checkout page⌉ Link to image: [https://d.pr/i/DRcQS4](https://d.pr/i/DRcQS4) * If you are still having issues though, please test with only WooCommerce **and the default [Storefront](https://woocommerce.com/storefront/) theme** to see if that resolves the issue. * Thread Starter [deschong](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deschong/) * (@deschong) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13273512) * Thanks [@kellymetal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kellymetal/). What we did is to remove the spinning circle on the Place order button from css. * ``` .blockUIblockOverlay { z-index: -1; } ``` * It’s not perfect as I think the issues is still there just that we took out the spinning circle to allow user to click on it. * [3 Sons Development](https://wordpress.org/support/users/3sonsdevelopment/) * (@3sonsdevelopment) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13311420) * Hi [@deschong](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deschong/), * I’m happy you were able to find a resolution for this. If you do want to look at what may be causing this in the theme, you may be able to troubleshoot the specific functions used by the theme. It’s similar to troubleshooting plugins. You would need to comment out the functions and test. * Then remove the comments one by one to enable the functions. When checkout works again, the last function activated may be causing the trouble. * I’m going to mark this resolved for now. If you do have any other questions, please feel free to reach back out. * Cheers Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) The topic ‘Place Order button keeps loading’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/woocommerce/assets/icon.svg?rev=3234504) * [WooCommerce](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/) * 7 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [3 Sons Development](https://wordpress.org/support/users/3sonsdevelopment/) * Last activity: [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/place-order-button-keeps-loading/#post-13311420) * Status: resolved
