>Do think this is the issue?
no.
my *absolute guess* would be somewhere there’s

add_action(‘wp_ajax_xyz’, array($this, ‘abc’));
and it’s missing the additional
add_action(‘wp_ajax_norpiv_xyz’, array($this, ‘abc’));

if it works when logged in but not when logged out, my guess would be there something somewhere is missing the right ajax privileges.

you probably want to do the following on a test install somewhere:
the only way to find out what / where is the problem is this

switch to a default theme (like 2016 or so)
disable *all* plugins except the wppizza plugins . (it will look funny, but the functionailty will still be there – just put the cart widget into a sidebar again)
if it works when logged out , re-enable plugins one by one (you will have to log in and log out again after enabling – or use different browser where you do your admin adjustments)

and see which one stops this from working

if it does not work with all other plugins turned off (except wppizza plugins) and the 2016 theme
let me know and i’ll have a look again

what does your debug configuration look like in your wp-config.php?
(looks more like a general ajax issue)

sorry, that’s not likely to happen in the foreseeable future

if that’s not it, i need a link to the site

>I dont know what would be the action hooks inside ‘wppizza-order.php’
anything that starts with do_action(....) there are lots of them. Which one you want to choose is up to you

>Do you have an example to hide this code
that’s the wrong way round. you have to choose where you want it, not where you don’t want it (see above)

by the way, that’s always the case, regardless of if you are using wppizza, woocommerce or whatever shopsystem you are using. you will have to connect the shopsystem to your payment provider via a gateway implementation

maybe the above helps

i still don’t really understand what the problem is.

but, to keep it clear and simple , if you want to use authorize.net with wppizza , you will need the authorize.net gateway for wppizza

as far as I know, the only implementation that exists of this is here https://support.wp-pizza.com/downloads/wppizza-authorizenet-gateway/

no (not at the moment anyway)

i believe we already had that conversation
