| August 8, 2013 at 12:41 pm Hi there, Support for First Data Connect 2 has been discontinued. In its place we’ve added support for First Data E4. If you’d prefer to continue using Connect 2.0 there is an archive that can be downloaded here: https://github.com/eventespresso/Gateways/tree/master/firstdata_connect_2 Then it can be installed in /wp-content/uploads/espresso/gateways Please be aware that the FirstData Connect 2.0 is no longer being maintained or supported so the archived files may not work with the new version of Event Espresso. We recommend using one of the supported gateways. |

| August 8, 2013 at 1:01 pm It might work, but we can no longer support it if it doesn’t. There’s a chance it will still work although you may encounter some issues with it since it was discontinued about 7 months ago and there have been a few changes since then to the way that Event Espresso handles the gateways. |

| August 8, 2013 at 1:30 pm okay then what is the Firstdata option that is listed under the payment settings? one says just First Data Settings and the other one listed says Firstdata E4 settings? |
