Good day @huho 

Thank you for posting to the PayPal community.

I believe you are referring to PayPal Website Payments Standard (WPS) is a legacy integration.

I would like to suggest that you try again by clearing browser's cache and cookies.

Important : Yes, we recommend merchants to integrate our latest PayPal Checkout (Smart button) product.

To ensure a seamless transition, I suggest using the following URL:   https://developer.paypal.com/integration-builder/ to generate the button code required for your website. This will help you take advantage of the advanced features and improved functionality offered by  PayPal Checkout (Smart button).

Additionally, before you begin coding, it is essential to familiarize yourself with some key points. To gain a better understanding of these points, I urge you to refer to the following link:

https://developer.paypal.com/docs/checkout/standard/integrate/#link-knowbeforeyoucode.

thank you for your answer 🙂

I indeed finally decided to implement this solution, but I have to tell, the gap in difficulty is huge compared to the old solution 😛 It was 2 intensive days to make it works on wordpress, Most of the tutorials are for node.js only, and there is nowhere i could find a comprehensive overview explanation.
