TMDS Extension Connection Issue — WooCommerce API Key Created but Not Used

Dear TMDS / VillaTheme Support Team,

I hope you are well.

I am trying to connect TMDS – Dropshipping for TEMU and WooCommerce to my WooCommerce store, but the extension does not complete the connection after WooCommerce approval.

My website:

https://swiftbuy.uk

I recorded a video/screenshots showing the issue and can attach them to this email.

Issue details

When I click Connect the Extension, WooCommerce opens the authorization page correctly. I click Approve, and WooCommerce successfully creates a REST API key for TMDS.

However, the plugin/extension still does not connect.

I checked the WooCommerce API keys table using WP-CLI, and the key is created like this:

TMDS_Dropshipping_for_TEMU_and_WooCommerce_Extension – API
Permission: read_write
User ID: 95
last_access: NULL

So it seems WooCommerce creates the key, but the TMDS Chrome extension does not capture or use the key after approval.

What I already tested

I already tried:

– Changed PHP from 8.5 to PHP 8.3
– Updated WordPress home/siteurl to https://swiftbuy.uk
– Flushed permalinks
– Cleared LiteSpeed cache
– Disabled JavaScript optimization
– Disabled Cloudflare security rules temporarily
– Confirmed no maintenance mode is enabled
– Disabled object cache
– Deactivated possible conflicting plugins
– Deleted old TMDS API keys and reconnected again
– Reinstalled/reloaded the Chrome extension
– Set Chrome extension site access to “On all sites”

The result is always the same: WooCommerce creates a new TMDS API key, but last_access remains NULL.

Plugin and extension versions
WordPress plugin: tmds-woocommerce-temu-dropshipping version 1.0.9
Chrome extension: TMDS – Dropshipping for TEMU and WooCommerce Extension version 1.0.18
WooCommerce is active and REST API works.

Also, the Activate button for the premium/license notice does not appear to do anything when clicked. I have a license and would like you to check if the license/update activation is also related to this connection issue.

Could you please check this problem and guide me on how to fix the connection? If needed, I can provide temporary admin access or more logs.

Best regards,
Yousif Ismail
