WooWeekly #574: Settings Class | Refund Button | Helpdesk Plugins

Hello there,

Welcome back to WooWeekly! Every week, I curate tips and tutorials to help you sharpen your WooCommerce skills.

Keeping busy—though bad weather and little sleep have kept me from sports! Productivity’s low, but I’m working on it…

Now, onto something you won’t want to miss: Black Friday deals! Nah, this is way more important: join 39 people tomorrow (Nov 27) for our live class WooCommerce Settings API: Build Custom Option Pages, where I’ll teach you how to create native-feeling custom tabs and options right inside the WooCommerce Settings interface.

Now, if you’re a freelancer or developer looking for WooCommerce support, ongoing education, and certifications, indeed—the Business Bloomer Club lifetime membership (https://www.businessbloomer.com/club/) is now 50% off—or up to 75% PPP off. A total steal.

Plus, if you’re a brand, product company, or supporter with some budget left this year, there are plenty of ways to get involved: sponsor this newsletter (50% off if you prepay 2026), sponsor the Business Bloomer Club itself (300+ membership pages and more), or sponsor Checkout Summit in person (https://checkoutsummit.com/sponsors/).
