Hello there,
Welcome back to WooWeekly, your weekly appointment with WooCommerce tutorials handpicked for you (and the other 19,432 subscribers!), so that you can learn something new.
Hope all is well and that you’ve had a wonderful start to 2025!
As we turn the page on a busy and rewarding 2024, I wanted to share a quick update to kick off the year with gratitude, excitement, and a few plans for what lies ahead.
In 2025, WooWeekly will be proudly supported by incredible new sponsors: Kestrel, Iconic, Kinsta, and Studio Wombat. These partnerships will continue for 12 months, giving me more time to focus on writing, coding, and nurturing the Woo community!
Besides, this year, I’m setting an ambitious goal: releasing one mini WooCommerce plugin every week. These will be small, focused tools designed to solve specific pain points for store owners and developers alike. I’m excited to see how these bite-sized plugins will make a difference in your WooCommerce projects.
In 2025, I’m also expanding the Business Bloomer Club e-learning offer with plans to release 4-5 brand-new online courses. These courses will dive deeper into WooCommerce topics, catering to store owners and developers looking to enhance their skills. Additionally, we’ll continue hosting our twice-a-month live masterclasses and webinars, ensuring there’s always something fresh, interactive, and valuable for you to learn.
I can’t wait to dive into this new Business Bloomer chapter with you. Let’s make it a year of growth and collaboration!
Anyhow… here’s your weekly round-up of WooCommerce tips and tricks. Happy holidays!

Headless WooCommerce: from setup to deployment on Kinsta
WooCommerce is one of the most popular WordPress plugins for building ecommerce applications. In addition to using WooCommerce in a traditional WordPress application, you can use it as a headless solution. This article teaches you how to build a headless WordPress application with React deployed on Kinsta. [Kinsta]
Generate One-Time Coupons in Bulk for WooCommerce
Creating bulk one-time coupons in WooCommerce can save hours of manual work when running promotional campaigns. Whether you need to generate unique codes for a flash sale or distribute personalized discounts to your email list, there are 2 reliable methods to achieve this: using a lightweight plugin or implementing custom code.

Offer a WooCommerce membership program to drive holiday sales
A neat way to drive more holiday sales is to offer memberships on your WooCommerce store, especially as an alternative to coupon codes.
Let’s take an approach inspired by The North Face as a great holiday strategy. They offer free shipping for joining, and they can even offer discounts targeted to members, no coupon code needed. [Kestrel]
How to Build Trust in Ecommerce with First-Time Customers
A first-time customer isn’t just someone who buys a product or service from you for the first time. These customers are also entirely new to your brand. They’re likely unfamiliar with the full range of offerings or your ecommerce customer experience. So, to win their trust and confidence in their purchase, your trust-building strategies should revolve around these practicalities. [Iconic]

ICYMI: WooCommerce Snippets
WooCommerce: Add Custom Badge To Featured Products @ Shop Page
If you’ve ever wanted to customize how WooCommerce featured products appear on your classic product grid (Shop, Category, Tag, archive, search, shortcode pages) or Product Collection block, you’re in the right place! [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: How to Split Orders After Purchase
Splitting WooCommerce orders programmatically can be incredibly useful for store owners who need to manage complex workflows. Whether you’re dealing with pre-orders, dropshipping, or simply organizing items for multiple shipments, dividing an order based on its products ensures smoother operations and a better customer experience. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Display Only Products On Sale @ Shop
In my own WooCommerce shop, for Black Friday, I wanted to send customers directly to the Shop page showcasing only items on sale. To my surprise, WooCommerce doesn’t provide a built-in way to sort products by “on sale” out of the box. Now, with a simple code snippet, you can enable a “Sort by On Sale” feature, or even use the “orderby=on_sale” parameter with your Shop page URL to show sale items effortlessly! [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: Edit “x customer reviews” String @ Single Product Page
While WooCommerce provides a default review display, you may want to customize it to fit your specific needs. This tutorial will guide you through the process of editing the “x customer reviews” text on a single product page. [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: “Last Chance” Category with Expiring Sale Products
When managing a WooCommerce store, your sales strategy can be a powerful way to engage customers and drive urgency. One cool trick is featuring products with sale prices about to expire (“sale price end date“) in a custom product category. We’ve already seen how to populate a “Sale” category, but this time I’d like to get only the sale products with a sale end date! [Business Bloomer]
WooCommerce: View Customer Order History on Single Order Admin Page
Viewing the WooCommerce customer’s order history directly on the single order admin page can be incredibly useful when you need quick access to a customer’s past purchases without navigating away from the current order screen. [Business Bloomer]
Advanced Product Fields for WooCommerce is the market’s fastest product options plugin. It allows you to easily add extra options to your products, such as text boxes, file uploads, swatches, date pickers, and more! Get an exclusive 20% discount with coupon code: BBLOOMER
