There’s a great free plugin for connecting WooCommerce to Google Analytics that tens of thousands of WooCommerce shops have used to get insight into their sales funnels and customer behavior. While this is a great plugin that serves the needs of tons of WooCommerce stores, what if you need more detailed tracking for your WooCommerce site? You could use a premium service like Kissmetrics or Mixpanel, but if you’ve historically used Google Analytic…
…es, and detailed decline messages are just some of the improvements we’ve made. Payeezy Added We’ve also added a new gateway method from First Data: Payeezy API (titled “Payeezy” in the plugin). Merchants currently using Payeezy Gateway can ask First Data to have their merchant accounts upgraded, and once this is done, can switch to using this gateway mode instead: One of the main benefits of the new Payeezy is basic PCI compliance. When we’d writ…
…, which we’d historically had difficulty getting developer access to, and made several improvements to the Payeezy gateway as well. Paytrail Rewrite Our Paytrail plugin was one we’d acquired from another developer some time ago, and it hasn’t gotten too much love since it’s a pretty niche gateway. We began a rewrite for this in February, which doubled as a way for us to make some generic improvements in how we handle hosted payment methods (such a…
…members_area_instance()->my_account_memberships(); We’ll make a shortcode to output this and then wrap it in a div with the CSS class woocommerce so it’s styled automatically like a WooCommerce table: Now you can use [wcm_my_memberships] within your content anywhere that shortcodes are expanded, and this area will render if a user has 1 or more memberships. If the user does not have a membership, the section will not be shown: Non-member view Me…
…ips as they wanted to purchase. This became one of the major decisions we made in the initial version, and any customer can have 0 or more memberships. However, some shops want to limit the number of memberships a customer can have, most commonly to only one membership at a time. This isn’t possible through the plugin settings, but the wc_memberships_grant_access_from_new_purchase filter can let us block granting access for new purchases if the cu…
…d about Subscriptions on Day 1, and we loved some of the announcements he made. Check out the new mini-extensions available for Subscriptions-powered stores, and kudos to team Prospress for even making the gifting plugin work really seamlessly with Memberships: Subscriptions Gifting Subscribe to all the things We also loved Patrick Garman’s talk on scaling WooCommerce and how to take it to the next level for massive stores, and Bryce Adams’s super…
…e reliability and performance improvements our codebase has to offer. This also brings the settings screen in line with our other plugins and makes set up easier than ever. Take a look: Maintaining Security and Ease of Use While we did overhaul things behind the scenes, we made it a priority to keep the customer experience as it always has been. Customers will use the same secure, off-site checkout process as before. Ready to give it a go? You can…
…e widest browser compatibility possible along with supporting the comma-separated dropdown type (though this is something we’re looking to change as the number input is much more widely supported). As a result, to add these attributes, you need to change the input type, then add the attributes for min and max values. This can be fairly straight forward, or quite involved depending on if these values are consistent across products or not. This tuto…
…ess page and review the results. Once you’ve reviewed your dry run, we’ve made it easier to adjust or run it if needed by condensing the notices down into one action message. We’ve also added a link to make it easy to go back to the import settings if they need adjustment so you don’t have to restart the import process to make changes. Once you start a live import job, you’ll be able to leave it as well, as see the same improved notice in your adm…
…e necessary changes to your social apps for future versions. While the upgrade is 100% backwards compatible, you’ll need to change the callback URLs in some of your social applications for consistency with the new library. You’ll see a new setting added to reflect this, which is automatically set to “legacy” when you update to version 2.0, and should not be changed until you’ve completed our upgrade guide. Callback URL setting So why the change if…
