    Hi,

    So on customer’s order page, there is “Sold by” field which is displaying vendor’s meta. However it is only a text, it’s not a vendor’s store URL. I would like to turn this text into vendor’s store URL. So when clicked on that meta info to take the customer to a vendor’s store. I attached a picture. How can I achieve this?

    Thanks.

    I think this is essential as customers should be able to easily go to vendor’s store after purchasing a product (in order to contact a vendor or similar). Right now it’s a bit confusing as they don’t know how to reach vendor’s store page after purchasing a product.

    Hello Pablo,
    I’ve seen your requests—
    I’m working on it… we had to make some changes for the new WooCommerce, which adds a bit of extra code to work around for this to be changed. 😉

    Hi Anna, thanks for the response.. I understand…

    It would be cool if you can give me a peak on which files are handling this so I could have a look myself and try to help you out for this to be changed?

    Thanks

    Pablo,
    Sure!
    So in this file (WC Vendors free):
    wp-content/wc-vendors/classes/front/class-vendor-shop.php
    lines 39-46 you’ll find the action hooks used:

    // Show vendor on all sales related invoices 
      if ( version_compare( WC_VERSION, '2.7', '<' ) ) { 	
       add_action( 'woocommerce_add_order_item_meta', array( $this, 'add_vendor_to_order_item_meta_legacy' ), 50, 2 ); 
      } else { 	
       add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_create_order_line_item', array( $this, 'add_vendor_to_order_item_meta' ), 50, 3 ); } 

    And then on lines 319-332 of the same file, you’ll find the function:

    public function add_vendor_to_order_item_meta( $item, $cart_item_key, $values ) {
    		$cart      	= WC()->cart->get_cart();
    		$cart_item 	= $cart[ $cart_item_key ]; 
    		$product_id 	= $cart_item['data']->get_id();
    		$post 		= get_post( $product_id ); 
    		$vendor_id 	= $post->post_author;  
    		$sold_by_label 	= WC_Vendors::$pv_options->get_option( 'sold_by_label' ); 
    		$sold_by 	= WCV_Vendors::is_vendor( $vendor_id ) ? sprintf( WCV_Vendors::get_vendor_sold_by( $vendor_id ) ): get_bloginfo( 'name' );
    
    		$item->add_meta_data( apply_filters( 'wcvendors_sold_by_in_email', $sold_by_label ), $sold_by );
    
    } // add_vendor_to_order_item_meta() 
    

    Now this Gist below shows what I have so far– all of this *should* work from what I can tell, but it is not currently changing to the link. I believe that the if statement added for the 2.7+ upgrade is interfering, or I need to alter the $sold_by and $store_url further:
