Settings
From the Wordpress administrative screen do the following
- Click WooCommerce -> Settings
- Then go to Products -> Rapid Order
From here you can customize various display options for Rapid Order.
Additional column - This option allows you to add one additional column to the listed items. Since Rapid Order doesn't support products with complex configuration, we've included the ability to add a simple checkbox that you can display to your customers. In our demo store example we've used the checkbox to allow customers to indicate whether or not they'd like to allow substitutions for a particular product. The setting will show up in the users cart if they check it.
Shortcode
Rapid Order has the ability to output it's form using a shortcode. Place this shortcode in your page wherever you want the form to display:
[rapidorder tags="fruit,dairy,meat"]
[rapidorder categories="fruit,dairy,meat"]
[rapidorder ids="12,45,77,339" show_sort="0"]
There are 4 shortcode options which can change the items and sorting in the form:
tags - This is a comma separated list of tag slugs, defaults to all products categories - This is a comma separated list of category slugs, defaults to all products show_sort - Choose whether or not to show the default sorting dropdown. Defaults to true. Valid values are 1 or 0. ids - Comma separated list of product ids. If ids's are specified, the 'categories' parameter will be ignored.
NOTE: shortcode options will combine together using the AND operator. For example if you had a shortcode like this:
[rapidorder categories="fruit" tags="berry"]Rapid Order would select all items that are in the fruit category AND have the berry tag.
Shortcode Limitations
Only one shortcode will be processed per page. You cannot have multiple rapidorder shorcodes on a page. Shortcodes will be displayed regardless of the user/role visibility settings for Rapid Order. If you require limiting the visibility of the Rapid Order form produced via shortcode, consider using a separate plugin to limit page access based on role.
Override default output
When you install Rapid Order it will automatically override the output of your shop, product archive, and search result pages. If you do not want Rapid Order to do this, and only utilize it via shortcode functionality, you can uncheck Override archive, shop, and search result pages on the settings page.
Optional Plugins
Rapid Order was designed to work with the following plugins:
Quantities and Units - Gives you the ability to specify decimal quantites and site-wide quantity rules. Also allows you to specify a unit of measurement on a per prduct basis.
Quantity Increment Buttons - Replace the browser's default increment buttons with some stylish looking ones using the Quantity Increment Buttons plugin. Works great on mobile too.
Advanced Settings
Custom CSS - You can use your own custom css to override any of the styles provided by this plugin. Simply add 'wc-rapid-order' as a dependancy when you enqueue your css script. For example somethings like this would work in your functions.php file:
function my_enqueue_scripts(){ wp_enqueue_style( 'my-custom-css', 'path/to/my/custom/css', array('wc-rapid-order') ); } add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_enqueue_scripts' );
