I get “Takepayments Mercury requires WooCommerce to be active on this site” Error message.

This message is nothing to worry about, just a reminder that you cannot Takepayments until WooCommerce is activated.

if your caching plugin can exclude pages/plugins or URLs, please ask the provider of your caching plugin. If your caching plugin does not have the
option to exclude other plugins/pages / URLs from caching, you may have to switch to a caching plugin that provides this option/possibility.
