1. Brand New WooCommerce Tips

WooCommerce: Add to Cart Quantity Suffix

In certain cases, it’s nice to specify the unit beside the add to cart quantity, so that customers know how much and what they are buying. So, let’s see how to add an add to cart quantity suffix beside the quantity input field on the single product page. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Redirect Specific Product Search To Custom URL

Now, let’s imagine you have a custom landing page for “Tables”, and you want people searching for “tables” to go to that page instead of the default search result page. Quite easy as well – thanks to a neat PHP snippet we will feature today. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Why Variable Products Are Too Limited (and How Add-Ons Can Help)

In this article, we’ll show you the easiest way to create and sell variable WooCommerce products using WooCommerce Product Options. But before that, let’s talk about why you need additional product options in your store. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer


2. David’s WooCommerce Highlights

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

WordPress 6.1 Released

I know I’m about a week late on this… but better late than never: WordPress 6.1 was released, introducing new design tools, template options, fluid typography, and a default theme. It is named “Misha” after Ukrainian-born Soviet-Norwegian Jazz pianist Mikhail “Misha” Alperin. 

Building with WooCommerce in Africa

Super cool to see members of the WooCommerce community in Africa get a chance to talk about their experiences on Do the Woo. See Do the Woo’s Abha Thakor chat with both Sunday Ukafia & Arthur Kasirye as both share their experiences being part of the African WooCommerce community in these two much-needed conversations.

3. ICYMI: WooCommerce Articles

WooCommerce: Disable Emails For a Single Order

As you know, each order status change triggers an order email (“processing”, “completed”, “on-hold”, etc.), and sometimes the store manager doesn’t want to resend them for a single order edit. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Ajax Add to Cart Quantity @ Shop

The bad news is that the Ajax Add to Cart button only allows you to add 1 item to the cart i.e. there is no quantity input field. In this tutorial, we will see how to turn the WooCommerce shop into an… Ajax cart with quantity inputs. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Set Product Discount Percentage @ Product Admin

In today’s tutorial, we’ll see how we can display a dropdown in the Product Edit page, and at the same time how to edit the frontend price once a discount value is selected, so that you don’t need to worry about that manual sale price calculation. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: In Stock Products Shortcode

We’ve already coded a solution to display WooCommerce out of stock products only via a custom shortcode – today we’ll do the opposite: how can we display in stock products only via a handy shortcode? ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: View Stock History @ Product Admin

This neat customization saves the stock quantity of a simple product or a variable product variation before there is a stock change, due to a manual stock quantity edit or a customer order. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer

WooCommerce: Hide “View Cart” Button @ Mini-Cart

You may be interested in hiding the “View Cart” button from the cart widget dropdown, so that customers can go straight to the Checkout page and convert. ~ Rodolfo Melogli, Business Bloomer
