How can we help?

Using the Payments plugin locally

The Mindspun Payments plugin uses webhooks to receive updates from Stripe.

These updates include:

  • Product and Price changes.
  • Subscription payments.
  • Any other updates made directly in the Stripe dashboard.

If your site is running locally, or on a private IP address, then Stripe cannot deliver webhooks to that URL. In this case, the webhooks are not installed by the plugin.

Running locally without webhooks is fine for theming your site and exploring base plugin features, just be aware this limitation. Using the synchronization functions on the Labs page can help pull in new Stripe data during development.

For advanced users, full plugin functionality can be had using the Stripe CLI. Be aware that when using the Stripe CLI, webhooks are only delivered while the cli is running. Webhooks are not retried as they are regularly.
