Is there a way to allow vendors to adjust a product’s commission percentage/amount? I know admins can do that from the WP Dashboard, but I also want to give vendors the ability to change the commission per product from the PRO Dashboard when they need to? I’m not really concerned since I do review all the products prior to marking them live, but I want to give vendors the ability to adjust default commission in case the default commission is not realistic for a specific product.
LOL no way! Of course vendors are not allowed to set their own commission rates. 🙂 Security risk times ten! 🙂
If you wanted them to set the commission rate, which is highly unadvisable, you would just have to replicate the commission meta keys per product and included them on the Pro form.
Hi Ben,
Yes I know but it’s how the client wants it. Thanks for the information about the meta field. Easy stuff man :”)
Best regards,
WassimI’m interested in why you gave such a strong reaction @Ben.
My scenario is I want vendors to promote each other’s products through their own websites and earn commission from successful sales.
I know wc vendors doesn’t allow multiple sellers per product so my workaround is: create each vendor as an affiliate (ithinx affiliates enterprise) and give them a custom front page to the store with their link embedded.
I want 100% of the purchase price to be split between my vendors, so if vednor a keeps 60% of their purchase price, vendor b as an affiliate earns the remaining 40%.
I’ve still got to figure out how to auto-calculate things from the affiliate end, but this is a scenario in which I NEED vendors to be able to set their own commission percentages.
Do you still see this as a “security risk times ten”? If not, could you possibly expand a little on “you would just have to replicate the commission meta keys per product and included them on the Pro form”?
