We got an interesting question this week from a developer: Is there a way to show Membership Plan Names in a “content restricted” notice instead of products to buy? In this case, the site wasn’t selling Memberships, but rather taking applications for them, so the plan names made more sense. This question can show us a couple interesting concepts today to look at: (1) creating a helper method to get Keep Reading…
Repeating a Fixed Date Membership with WooCommerce Memberships
Howdy and happy new year, folks! The new year partly inspired this Memberships post, as an year cycle ends, and it’s likely that many of you Memberships users might have set up membership plans that are a year long.

Automatically Link WooCommerce Orders at Customer Registration
We got an question from Rob in our comments section on our post about adding registration prompts to WooCommerce emails that makes for an interesting tutorial. To summary Rob’s question: How would you reconcile a previous order when a guest user registers? In other words: say I buy from your store and use my email (test@test.com) at checkout. I then get this lovely email with a registration prompt, so I Keep Reading…
Screen ID checks with WordPress Submenu Pages
Chances are if you’ve read our series on adding plugin settings to WooCommerce, you’re using an existing WooCommerce settings page or new settings tab to add any required configuration options for your plugin. If you have a more complex plugin who’s data will be accessed very often (such as Memberships or Subscriptions), you may even be adding a new submenu with a custom settings or usage page for your plugin.

Get all WooCommerce Refunded orders

There are a couple ways you could approach this issue. Let’s start with the couple methods Keep Reading…

Disable Repeat WooCommerce Purchases for a Product Category
We previously wrote up a tutorial on preventing repeat purchases for a particular WooCommerce product, or for any product in your store. However, based on the comments there, some merchants wanted to disable repeat WooCommerce purchases for a set of products, but not all products. In order to do so, you could use a product category to check whether repeat purchases should be allowed or not. This would let you Keep Reading…
Hide WooCommerce Product Reviews Until Purchase
We’ve got an Ask SkyVerge questions queued up for today from Sam: Is there a way to display the WooCommerce review tab only for customers who bought the product?

Prevent WooCommerce Checkout for Add-on Products
Today’s Ask SkyVerge question comes from Ian (I’m paraphrasing it a bit though): Is there a way to prevent purchase if a customer only has certain products in the cart? I sell ink cartridges as add-ons for printers, but these should not be purchased alone. I tried using a grouped product, but a customer could only order cartridges or remove the main product from the cart. Can checkout require another Keep Reading…
