Hello there,
Welcome back to WooWeekly, your weekly appointment with WooCommerce tutorials handpicked for you (and the other 19,334 subscribers!), so that you can learn something new.
I’m now back in Sicily after a weekend in hospital with my dad – surgery went well and apparently he’s going to get out today. The details of the surgery were interesting to learn about, and it’s amazing to see how things have changed in the last 10 years. Apparently, his liver got bombarded from the inside with Canadian-made radioactive Yttrium microspheres… which is incredible to me! Let’s hope he can recover quickly now.
On the business end, the Business Bloomer Club redesign and redevelopment have started, and the announcement should get to your inboxes within Monday, before anyone else (mid October). It’s exciting – to me, at least – that the whole Business Bloomer WooCommerce e-learning/support/community offer is moving under one single umbrella.
Anyhow… here’s your weekly round-up of WooCommerce tips and tricks. Enjoy!

Boost Sales with Cart-Based Discounts in WooCommerce
Are you tired of the limitations of WooCommerce’s default coupon system?

Fortunately, there’s a better way to implement these promotions and drive sales in your e-commerce store. [Studio Wombat]

This Week’s Top Conversations
- Does anyone know what the ETA is re: the new product editor?
- I have a $29.01 product. I apply a 50% discount. The displayed item price is now $14.51 (rounded). I add 2 to cart and subtotal is now $29.01 instead of $29.02. What am I missing?
- I want to disallow one product from being purchased by itself. Can anyone provide guidance?
- Do you think adding a custom DB column to the “wc_customer_lookup” table would be more efficient than the wc_customer_bought_product() function?

ICYMI: WooCommerce Snippets
WooCommerce: Prevent Orders From Blacklisted Email Addresses
In some cases, you may need to block certain customers from completing orders on your WooCommerce store. By adding these 8 lines of PHP to your theme’s functions.php file, you’ll be able to prevent orders from specific email addresses efficiently. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Sale End Date Countdown Timer
In this blog post, we’ll guide you through a simple PHP/JS customization that replaces the static “Sale!” badge on the WooCommerce Single Product page with a captivating countdown timer. This will not only add excitement to your product page but also encourage customers to make a purchase before the sale ends. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Fit All Settings In One Page
In the world of WooCommerce, customization is crucial for creating a unique online store. However, juggling numerous WooCommerce settings across multiple pages can be tedious. Imagine a solution that simplifies this process by consolidating all your WooCommerce options into a single, easy-to-use interface. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Custom “Empty Cart” Button
Yes, you can manually change the product quantities to 0 on the cart page, or click on the “remove item” icon for each product… but having a button that can do all that could be a time saver, especially for B2B WooCommerce customers. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Add Checkout Fee Based On Shipping Class
Whether you’re dealing with bulky items, fragile goods, or specific shipping items, you can leverage WooCommerce flexibility and dynamically add checkout fees based on whether a given shipping class is in the cart. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Hide Free Products [Code Snippet]
Are free products cluttering your WooCommerce store? Or are they so many, that you have no intention of manually setting them to “catalog visibility: hidden” one by one and need a proper shortcut? Discover how to strategically hide $0 products from the shop / category / archive pages using WooCommerce custom code – enjoy! [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Edit Custom Field @ Order Admin
Adding a custom field to your WooCommerce checkout is a breeze. But while you can easily view the custom field data in the backend, editing it directly from the order admin is a frustratingly locked feature. Luckily, a bit of custom code can fix this, giving you the flexibility and control you need to manage your orders effectively. [Business Bloomer]
