Another instance of this has occurred, so I’ve taken another irate phone call from this person.

I’ve now set up a brand new PayPal account as a workaround, to then transfer to my primary account, but this also means another set of paperwork to generate and submit each year to show these incoming transactions to this extra account.

I’ve entered the details of this new PayPal account into the Store PayPal email address field, but if there is another field which is causing it to use the Users’ email address instead, it would be nice to know where else it might be pulling this information from.

This email address appears for the user in the following user_meta:

billing_email

For another vendor, the correct email address appears in the ‘pv_vendor’ user_meta field, but for this user, this is not set.

The payment has definitely not come through to either the Admin’s PayPal account, nor the previously entered PayPal account (before that field was cleared), but it did go to the user’s own email address.

If there is another place that this could be retrieving the email address from, please let me know and I will check my database again – but at the moment it is using the incorrect email address.

Regards,

Garry

Hi Marko,

No, I have not looked into this any further, and rather disappointed too that WCVendors themselves have not posted any kind of reply, even if it were along the lines of ‘sorry there is no support for this’.

That will add a huge burden to administrators, though.

It is known for each order how many vendors there are (and, your recommendation is that even the store owner is set as a vendor [although for my use that will require multiple people to be assigned to a store]), and when each of them mark as shipped.

Surely it should be possible (and preferable) to allow automatic marking of the order as Complete once all vendors on that order have marked as shipped, especially with automatic payment of commissions using the Adaptive Payments gateway.

This is an annoying oversight for me, something I didn’t realise this plugin didn’t do 🙁

Hi Ben,

Well, it turns out (for the first time I’ve encountered) the code wasn’t being called when included into a plugin, but is working when in the theme’s functions.php file.

I’ve amended the code slightly (as the quoted code still showed the Sold by tag), and I didn’t want to link to the Vendor page (as I have the products categorised instead.

remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', array('WCV_Vendor_Shop', 'template_loop_sold_by'), 9, 2);
remove_filter( 'woocommerce_get_item_data', array( 'WCV_Vendor_Cart', 'sold_by' ), 10, 2 );
remove_action( 'woocommerce_product_meta_start', array( 'WCV_Vendor_Cart', 'sold_by_meta' ), 10, 2 );
remove_filter( 'woocommerce_order_product_title', array( 'WCV_Emails', 'show_vendor_in_email' ), 10, 2 );
remove_filter( 'woocommerce_product_tabs', array( 'WCV_Vendor_Shop', 'seller_info_tab' ) );
remove_action( 'woocommerce_add_order_item_meta', array('WCV_Vendor_Shop', 'add_vendor_to_order_item_meta'), 10, 2 );
remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'loop_sold_by', 8 );
remove_action( 'woocommerce_product_meta_start','product_sold_by', 8 );

add_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'custom_template_loop_sold_by', 9 );
function custom_template_loop_sold_by($product_id) {
	$vendor_id     = WCV_Vendors::get_vendor_from_product( $product_id );
	if ( $vendor_id != '1' ) { // Change "1" to the admins user id #
		if (WCV_Vendors::is_vendor( $vendor_id )) {
			$sold_by = WCV_Vendors::get_vendor_sold_by( $vendor_id );
			echo '<small class="wcvendors_sold_by_in_loop">' . apply_filters('wcvendors_sold_by_in_loop', __( 'Sold by: ', 'wcvendors' )). $sold_by . '</small> <br />';
		}
	}
}

add_filter( 'woocommerce_get_item_data', 'custom_sold_by', 10, 2 );
add_action( 'woocommerce_product_meta_start', 'custom_sold_by_meta', 10, 2 );
function custom_sold_by( $values, $cart_item ) {               
	$vendor_id = $cart_item[ 'data' ]->post->post_author;
	if ( $vendor_id != '1' ) { // Change "1" to the admins user id #
		if (WCV_Vendors::is_vendor( $vendor_id )) {
				$sold_by = WCV_Vendors::get_vendor_sold_by( $vendor_id );
				$values[] = array(
							'name'    => apply_filters('wcvendors_cart_sold_by', __( 'Sold by', 'wcvendors' )),
							'display' => $sold_by
						);
		}
	}
	return $values;
}       
                
function custom_sold_by_meta() {               
	$vendor_id = get_the_author_meta( 'ID' );
	if ( $vendor_id != '1' ) { // Change "1" to the admins user id #
		if (WCV_Vendors::is_vendor( $vendor_id )) {
			$sold_by = WCV_Vendors::get_vendor_sold_by( $vendor_id );
			echo apply_filters('wcvendors_cart_sold_by_meta', __( 'Sold by: ', 'wcvendors' )) . $sold_by . '<br/>';
		}
	}
}

Thanks for your help.
