I have 4 questions regarding the product page that the vendor uses and date formats, please see attached.
– The inventory tab seems to have disappeared even though it is enabled in the backend module (please see attached). Also the price tab has disappeared even though it is enabled.
– I have disabled international shipping, but it is still shown on the products page, I only want it to show national shipping fee (please see attached)
– The product type dropdown is shown althoung I have disabled all product types. I just want all products to be simple as default.
– How do I change the date format to danish: dd-mm-yyyy

Hello Peder,– The inventory tab seems to have disappeared even though it is enabled in the backend module (please see attached). Also the price tab has disappeared even though it is enabled.
This sounds like either a theme or plugin conflict. Have you tried deactivating all plugins except WooCommerce, WC Vendors and WC Vendors Pro, then checking to see if the form looks as it should?
– I have disabled international shipping, but it is still shown on the products page, I only want it to show national shipping fee (please see attached)
I have requested an option to be added that will allow the admin to COMPLETELY disable International Shipping- even for the store and product overrides.
In the meantime, I will take a look at the templates and filters to see if we can edit these or add a filter to remove these from your site using a different method.– The product type dropdown is shown although I have disabled all product types. I just want all products to be simple as default.
Even if you have disabled all other product types in your admin (wp admin > woocommerce > wc vendors > products) Leave Simple un-checked. The drop down box will still show, since that is the type of field that it is built into– but no other product types will show– only simple. And it will be active by default.
– How do I change the date format to danish: dd-mm-yyyy
I asked our lead developer this question, and he informed me that at this time the date format is not something that we can change due to a wordpress display limitation.
Hi Anna
Thanks for your your answers. The date problem is a very serious one. I have worked on the site for months, but it cannot be used in Denmark and many other countries if the date format is not correct. That basically destroys my entire project. Can you please ask your developer once again, streching that this is a very serious problem for international customers.
I do not get the logic of having a dropdown menu with only one option for the simple product. The user will not understand what that is all about and what to do with it.
Peder @wuth ,
The answer for the date selector comes form our lead developer- at this time, that is what his answer is, I am not certain exactly why this is the case– but unfortunately he has stated that he found that there was a limitation with this that prevented him from altering the date selection to display differently.If you are only going to use the Simple Product Type on your website, there actually is a way to deal with this and remove that from the front end the add / edit product page.
You’ll need to modify this template:
wp-content/plugins/wcvendors-pro/templates/dashboard/product-edit.phpIf you have not yet modified WC Vendors Pro templates, please see this article first:
https://www.wcvendors.com/kb/changing-vendor-templates/Once you have found the product-edit.php template and moved it to your theme/child theme, around line 62… you’ll need to change this:
<!-- Product Type --> <div class="wcv-product-type"> <?php WCVendors_Pro_Product_Form::product_type( $object_id ); ?> </div>To this:
https://gist.github.com/fervous/45a062fcc93ec22916b61492b4c11d46
That should prevent the drop down box from showing.
Hi Anna
Thanks for your answers
Regarding the simple product type. Why would you modify the product-edit page. Is there any problem with just adding this to the css:
.wcv-product-type
{
display: none;
}Regarding the date format. As mentioned this is a huge problem for me. I REALLY think you should warn all customers that are not using american date formats about this, before they spend a lot of energi on setting up WC Vendors.
Eeh, I disagree with the date format. Anyone who is responsible will have used the Pro demo and already know how it works. Plus, its the way WooCommerce AND WordPress work, so we just follow those standards nothing more nothing less.
The reason you wouldnt want to use css, is css just “hides” stuff. The stuff is still there. css is just a quick way to hack/hide stupid stuff. You should never use css to hide fields you dont want vendors to use, you disable the fields entirely.
Hi Ben
Thanks for your answer. I did actually check the date format and dates are shown nicely in a danish format in many places. When you enter comments for instance. Please have a look at the comment called test on this page http://marketplace.wuth.info/shop/multi-charm-ring-set/#comment-144 . I did not think about checking every single date field in the entire system, since I do think that it is reasonable to expect consistency. I still do not understand why you are able to show danish dates in some places and not in other places. In the WordPress backend it is possible to set date formats, and ddmmyyyy is an option. Why are you saying that you are following WordPress standards, as far as I can see WordPress gives you the option to use other date formats.
Regards
Peder
I’m sorry, I dont really have anything else to add. You can always edit code and make it do what you want. Feel free to do so.
