Here’s an Ask SkyVerge question we’ve heard from lots of Memberships users: When a member logs in, how can I redirect them to a custom member home page instead of the WooCommerce account page? This has been a popular request for some time, but wasn’t feasible for us to address since members can belong to multiple plans. How would Memberships know which page to send a user to when they belonged to multiple plans? It’d…
WooCommerce Product Reviews Pro is handy for gathering more feedback from customers as they review your products, which can help future purchasers learn more about items. Was the item too small or too big? Was the color as expected? What were you using the item for? In Product Reviews Pro, you can add these questions as review qualifiers. They’re added as dropdown questions in your review form. One question our support team got recently was:…
Time to start with our first Ask SkyVerge question of 2018 🙂 This question is from Houdayer: Is there a way to add shipping information in the table at MyAccount > Orders? Sure thing! We’re looking at the “Orders” menu in the my account page currently, which shows order number, date, status, total, and actions by default: The woocommerce_my_account_my_orders_columns filter lets us add or adjust the columns included in this list, so we can add…
We’ve gotten this question a few times, most recently from Jon: Can I add a lock icon before restricted posts? I already use FontAwesome, but I’m not sure how to add / remove the lock depending on whether the customer has access. Definitely do-able 🙂 As Jon has noted though, be sure that FontAwesome is already loaded on your site so the icon can be shown. To add the icon, we’ll filter the_title to adjust…
Since version 3.0 was released for our WooCommerce PDF Product Vouchers plugin, the addition of custom voucher fields has been made far easier for developers working with the plugin. There a couple of simple hooks available to let you add some basic voucher data, and then the plugin does the heavy lifting to add settings for these in the voucher template customizer, printing them on the voucher, and on product pages when a voucher is…
Back in action this week with some tutorials scheduled! First up, we have an Ask SkyVerge question today from Rebecca: You’ve got a great article on how to move product upsells to a widget. But what about moving them to a tab? I’d love your ideas on how to make the tab disappear if there are no upsells. Definitely possible! By default, the upsells are shown on the product page below the product description: We…
Here’s a quick question we’d gotten in a support thread: How can I add a link to “Cancel” a membership with it’s subscription to the “My Memberships” table? Unfortunately, adding a link to cancel both a membership + it’s associated subscription isn’t really straight-forward — this is why the “cancel” action is removed in the first place when a memberships is tied to a subscription. This way, cancelling the billing record is the only way…
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 go and register. The problem…
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 group all products that shouldn’t…
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? That way users who never bought the product will not be able to see the review tab. Product reviews are one of the most important indicators of social proof for an eCommerce site, and they’re an excellent tool to help customers make purchasing decisions and learn…
