BUT FIRST… THANK YOU, STAGE SPONSOR!

GoDaddy PRO WordPress Ecommerce hosting with WooCommerce gives you the freedom to sell anything, anywhere online – from physical products to digital downloads, services and subscriptions. We’ve integrated WooCommerce into our Managed WordPress platform where you can choose from over 75 premium WooCommerce extensions included in your plan for as long as you host your ecommerce store with us. That’s nearly $6,000 in free premium extensions — at no extra charge — to build a powerful, customized ecommerce store.


1. Brand New WooCommerce Tips

WooCommerce: Dynamically Update Variable Product Attributes @ Single Product

In today’s quick snippet, we’ll show just that: a combination of PHP and jQuery to make sure that “Additional Information” tab is always updated based on the selected variation. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Display Product ACF Value @ Shop Page

We already talked about displaying an ACF field on the single product page. This time around, we’ll do the exact same but for the product loop pages (shop, category, tag, etc.). ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: How page speed impacts your bottom line

In this post, we’ll examine how page speed impacts your ecommerce revenue and how you can boost your WooCommerce speed to provide a great experience for all of your visitors. ~ Bradley Taylor, GoDaddy


2. David’s WooCommerce Highlights

Here are a few notes written by David of PeachPay, WooWeekly co-author.

CaboPress 

I attended Chris Lema’s event, CaboPress, last week. As far as the conferences I have been to go, this was the best on the strength of the venue alone. While there, I got to know the CEO & Founder of OliverPOS, and I came away highly impressed by what they’ve managed to achieve. They pride their POS product on its flexibility and compatibility with thousands of WordPress plugins, obviously a must for any WooCommerce stores who want a smooth experience juggling omnichannel sales. I recommend checking them out — be sure to let me know what you think if you do! 

Still no WooConf… but we have WooSesh

Still no WooConf, or any WooCommerce-dedicated, in-person convention for that matter (like Rodolfo and I keep pushing for…). However, the next best thing is happening as we speak. WooSesh, the virtual WooCommerce conference, started yesterday and continues till tomorrow. Here’s what the schedule looks like…

Day 1: Keynote by Paul Maiorana; where is Woo going; how to improve sales

Day 2: Personalization; automation; expanding Woo 

Day 3: Performance; security; stability; integrations

Do the Woo from Porto

Bob Dunn loved WCEU’s location so much he decided to make it home! The future HQ of Do the Woo is Porto, Portugal.


3. ICYMI: WooCommerce Articles

WooCommerce: Alter Product Search @ Manual Admin Orders

As soon as you click on “Add items” > “Add products“, a table displays with a product search and quantity input. That’s exactly where we’re working today: what if you have 10,000 products in your store, but only create manual invoices with the same 2-3 products? ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce Subscriptions: Display Start-End Dates @ Cart & Checkout

It would be way more helpful if dates (and specifically the WooCommerce subscription start date and end date) showed right under the product name inside the Cart table and in the Checkout page order review, so that the customer knows exactly what they are purchasing before having to figure that out. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: How to Bulk Generate Coupons Without a Plugin

Today, we’ll take a look at how to bulk generate coupon codes from the WordPress backend by using a simple PHP “for“. Once the function triggers, it will just be a matter of seconds! ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Get Current User Orders By Status

This is a neat custom function that you can use in your WooCommerce customization. It can be helpful to know the list of orders placed by the current user ID. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Upload File @ Checkout Page

The only possible solution is to upload the file BEFORE the checkout is submitted, so that upon “Place Order”, the file is already available in the Media section and can be attached to the order as a simple string (URL). ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer
