WP EasyPay – Square for WordPress [wpep-form] Shortcode

The WP Easy Pay shortcode is a tool that renders a payment form on your site. It checks if the site has HTTPS enabled and if the form exists in the database. If these conditions are met, it fetches the form’s data, including a square token for payment processing. If the form is trashed or doesn’t exist, it informs the user. If no form ‘id’ is provided, it prompts for one. If HTTPS is not enabled, it warns about the lack of SSL.
