MarkParticipant
Thanks Jamie,
Yes, I understand how to edit the store header template. I switched out the font awesome reference from fa-pinterest for fa-twitch. This worked perfectly.
MarkParticipantAnna,
I just had an idea, on the shop settings social tab, is it possible to change the labels for the social icons?
For example, I would like to setup a font awesome link for “Twitch”. I’m not using the pinterest social link, is there a way I could change the label for pinterest to say “Enter Twitch URL” instead. Then in the Store header template, I could modify the pinterest line to use the Twitch font icon instead.
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
Similar to what was requested below, I want to add another font awesome icon to the store header. Is it possible to add the custom field to show up under the shop-settings-social tab, section.I’m assuming the KB code here, puts the custom field on the main shop-settings page only.
thanks
MarkParticipantCongrats Anna
July 14, 2016 at 8:50 am in reply to: Sharing videos under Product Description general question #37101MarkParticipantBen,
Agree, I will just ban them. However was curious if there were limits to the types of share links that could be inserted. At least now I know that WC Vendors isn’t involved in that, I may look more into this topic later if it becomes a problem for my site. thanksConscious, to embed a youtube video, just go to that youtube page and click on the “Share” work and then copy the share link, then paste whole “http://…..” link in the Product Description. Then when you view that woocommerce single product page, the video will appear like its embedded. Somewhere around March is when I figured out this was possible, don’t know if it prevented in earlier versions.
MarkParticipantthanks, was also looking at the changelog for 1.3.3
Can you explain what the added features “Verified Vendors Badge” and “Option to disable select2 from loading” are for or what they do.
I see them referenced at the bottom of the “Pro” tab.
MarkParticipantSorry, I meant the dashboard “settings – social” tab, not the branding tab.
MarkParticipantAlso just realized that no matter what I type in as a snapchat username does not save. For example, type in a social snapchat user name on the branding tab. Save it. Go to the vendor store, icon does not appear. Go back to vendor dashboard branding tab and the social snapchat line shows the default “snapchatUsername” words in the box again.
Any ideas?
Thanks
MarkParticipantOk, no problem, never hurts to ask 🙂
MarkParticipantActually, after looking closer with Firebug layout tool, there is a padding left issue that I need to set to 0 related to
<div class=”wcv-store-grid__col wcv-store-grid__col–3-of-3 store-info” style=”padding-left: 20px;”>
and
<ul class=”social-icons”>The first one keeps the Store name, ratings, and social icons from being centered on the banner because of the 20px shift
The second one above shows an additional padding left of 40px for the social iconsWould you be able to provide the CSS for these 2 spots that will allow me to customize these two items?
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
My social icons on not centered on the store banner. They are shifted to the right of center some. I’m only using 4 of the 7 and have disabled the other 3 on the WC VEndors Settings tab.
Do I need to add a “display none” type CSS line to my styles file for the 3 Im not using, in order to have them 4 centered on the banner? If so, what would that be?
Im not using the LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Google+ ones
MarkParticipantWould it be possible to add Whatsapp option also with Snapehat in the new release?
MarkParticipantHere are all the social media logos with their proper color according to this list
.fa-facebook-square:before {
color: #3b5998;
}
.fa-instagram:before {
color: #125688;
}
.fa-twitter-square:before {
color: #55acee;
}
.fa-google-plus-square:before {
color: #dd4b39;
}
.fa-pinterest-square:before {
color: cb2027;
}
.fa-youtube-square:before {
color: #bb0000;
}
.fa-linkedin-square:before {
color: #007bb5;
}Ben,
Would it be possible to add another social share link for Snapchat? My site is targeting a younger demographic, which Snapchat is popular for.MarkParticipantHi Ben,
You always get me on the right track to solve problems :).
For anyone else that needs help on this, you can modify the color with CSS like this
.fa-facebook-square:before {
color: blue;
}
.fa-youtube-square:before {
color: red;
}Make sure the icon matches the one used in the template that Ben referenced above, for example “fa-facebook-square “
MarkParticipantI might be able to change the color with CSS….saw this online but still need to test.
.fa-youtube:before {
color: red;
}MarkParticipantThanks,I see how to modify the code to make them bigger, that will help.
However, I wish they had some color icons to choose from, like the standard blue Facebook “f”, for example. The problem I am having is, as I let vendors pick their own store banner image, this will impact the visibility of theses black/white icons. They seem to blend in. Has anyone else asked about this? I tried searching forum, but didn’t see any on this topic.
Is it an option(or will it break template) to replace this part of code <i class=”fa fa-facebook-square”></I> with something else that would point to my media library. If so, what would that code look like?
Or second option, use something other than font awesome, I don’t know if there is another similar choice, I’ll start looking
MarkParticipantThanks, I’m actually surprised that no one else has asked. I would believe that all Vendors would want this feature in their summary table on the front end. Perhaps no one asked (not thinking from the Vendor’s point of view) because us Admins on the forum could see this info in the backend.
Not sure how to organize the table but it would be nice to indicate if it was refunded and also the amount refunded (assuming that some vendors might do partial refunds).
I appreciate the hard work your team puts into the product.
MarkParticipantok, that worked. The commissions paid was adjusted properly by subtracting out the amount now.
After a refund, on the Dashboard (Recent Orders) or Vendor Orders page, I didn’t see any indication on the order that was refunded, Is that something that may be added in the future release?
MarkParticipantThanks for tip on the Auto Complete plugin. It did exactly what I wanted.
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
I found the code you are referencing. If I modify this file, do I put it under my child theme somewhere like when I update a template or just over-right the current file. Also, Im assuming this will just be my temporary fix, until v1.4 comes out.Would it hurt anything if I was to comment out this whole section and just leave the “View order details” option
'print_label' => array( 'label' => __( 'Shipping Label', 'wcvendors-pro' ), 'url' => '?wcv_shipping_label='. $order->get_order_number(), 'target' => '_blank' ), 'add_note' => array( 'label' => __( 'Order Note', 'wcvendors-pro' ), 'url' => '#', 'custom' => array( 'id' => 'open-order-note-modal-' . $order->get_order_number(), ), ), 'add_tracking' => array( 'label' => __( 'Tracking Number', 'wcvendors-pro' ), 'url' => '#', 'custom' => array( 'id' => 'open-tracking-modal-' . $order->get_order_number(), ), ),
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
Did I miss a step above?MarkParticipantUnless I’m missing something, I can see how this could lead to WooCommerce reports not being accurate, because I would be depending on the vendor to notify Admin somehow that they did a refund, and then manually set in Dashboard, woocommerce, orders….. Agree?
Disagree. If you do your job as the admin, your reports / stats will always be accurate.
What I meant here is if the vendors don’t notify admin that they did a refund, then I cant do my part as Admin on the backend in WooCommerce, which could lead to inaccurate reports.
*******************************
Testing it out a split payment purchase/refund….Step 1. I made a purchase for $10 item, then went into vendor’s paypal and initiated refund ($8 vendors cut only) and money went back the buyer. This part worked.
2. Went to WooCommerce -> Orders and then went into the Order details. Selected the Refund button, entered in $10 for refund. (I’ll refund my $2 later in paypal). It changed the order status to “Refunded”. Checked Vendor Dashboard and Commission Paid unchanged.
3. Went to wp-admin > WooCommerce > Commissions…selected the order. Under the Status column, still says paid. Changed it to “Marked Reverse” and hit apply.
4. “Status” column still says “paid”. Should it change to “reversed”. Also on Vendor Dashboard, Commission Paid still includes the amount.
Did I miss a step?
MarkParticipantcouple follow up questions…..
On the vendor Dashboard, there are the two section “Commissions Due” and “Commissions Paid”. Since I selected to pay commissions instantly, Commission Due will always be equal to 0. Is that correct?
Example when 100% goes to vendor
Under “Commission Paid”, say there were 5 orders for $10 each, so the total is $50. If the vendor issues a refund for 1 order for $10 dollars via paypal, then the total here will still say $50 (not $40). And then the only way to get this to change would be if Admin marked the line item as “refunded”. There is no way for the vendor to do this step themselves. Is that correct?
Unless I’m missing something, I can see how this could lead to WooCommerce reports not being accurate, because I would be depending on the vendor to notify Admin somehow that they did a refund, and then manually set in Dashboard, woocommerce, orders….. Agree?Example 2 when split payment
There was 1 order split 80/20 for $10. Here, I think I also would need to be notified of refund and also refund my 20% portion or not. If I refund my cut, and then mark line item Refunded in woocommerce, then the woocommerce reports are good and the vendor dashboard Commissions Paid are accurate. If I don’t refund my cut and mark it Refunded, then dashboard Commissions Paid is accurate, but my woocommerce reports are not. Do I have this correct?If I have this correct, then I believe I would have to use/generate reports via info I can pull from the PayPal account for bookkeeping information.
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
I have been trying to read other threads and also your WC Vendor guides on this topic. But sorry, Im still confused on this process and knowing what activities I (as admin) and the vendor will need to do regarding refunds. First, my payment gateway is PAYPAL.Scenario 1: 100% of payment went to the vendor and it is immediately. No split payment. Vendor goes into their own paypal account and initiates a refund. I understand this so far and how to simulate it. If any, what other steps should the vendor then do on the site in their WC Vendors Dashboard?. I’m trying to write instructions for my vendors so they know what they should do. If a vendor does a refund, how would I know? Are there any steps (or things I need to monitor) under Dashboard – WooCommmerce – Orders or Commissions that I need to do regularly on the backend. What triggers the WooCommerce refund emails that you referenced above when a vendor initiates the refund in payment gateway (paypal?
Also, we are selling consulting time (ie service), so there is no shipping, As Admin, do I need to regularly go into WooCommerce -> Orders and mark them from “processing” to “complete”?
Scenario 2: Basically the same but in a split payment scenario, say 80% to vendor and 20% to site. I understand the vendor can go into their gateway and refund their portion. But then I’m not sure how I (admin) get notified and what backend steps in WooCommerce, if any, I should/need to be doing.
MarkParticipantIn the meantime until v1.4 comes out…
Is there a way I could rename these links to empty text
View Order details
Shipping Label
Order note
Tracking Number
Marked Shipor HIDE the whole box for now.
MarkParticipantok, I can do that.
MarkParticipantThat works for me.
MarkParticipantYou had a good idea to check on the orders.
For the default time period that showed up, which was 4/6/16 to 5/6/16, there were no orders. When I clicked on the date range it looked like the pic above. When I manually type in the date range from 2/1/16 to 5/6/16, the orders from February appeared in a table. Then when I clicked on the calendar, it displayed the full calendar correctly.
MarkParticipantAre you talking about the items I circled in Red or the woocommerce emails?
MarkParticipantHow about the second question….
On the Orders tab, whats the best way to hide the parts I circled in red? See pic above…..Is it possible to modify a WC template to hide or do I use custom CSS to put in my styles file. Im trying to eliminate confusion. Also, just noticed there are several WooCommerce (email tab) generated emails that I should probably disable.
MarkParticipantFollow up question,
Is it possible to have some default text in the “edit boxes” for Product Name, Product Description, and Product Short Description? Then when the vendor starts typing in their info, all the default text is erased. I was thinking to put in some instructions or sample language to give the vendors an idea/guidance on what to type in these boxes (best practices), so there is some uniformity in what the vendors type for a product descriptions…etc.
MarkParticipantThanks Ben,
That’s what I thought. It didn’t really makes since to me with WC vendors there, but in effort to do things the “right” way, I thought I’d ask.
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
A couple questions, I drafting/completing my paypal form now to get my App ID.
I noticed that Gabriel (in his pics above) answered the question “Who is responsible for chargebacks or refunds” with “WCvendors”. Is that correct or should it be changed to my company/site name?
Also, should the “primary receiver” be “vendor” and the secondary receiver be “my company/site name”?
MarkParticipantsecond pic
April 27, 2016 at 10:50 pm in reply to: "Edit profile" link redirecting to Dashboard question? #30940MarkParticipantI did have that checked. I unchecked it and tested. When Im a subscriber user, I still go to the “my-account” page. Which is good.
When Im a vendor user, it now takes me to backend type WordPress profile page, which I would not want my members to see. Access to too much stuff. With it checked, it takes me to the Dashboard page.
MarkParticipantJamie/Ben,
That fixed it. Thanks
MarkParticipantHere is the second picture
MarkParticipantFor first Picture, I created a new Product, saved it. Then I went to the main dashboard screen just to change the page, then went back to products and edit this product. As you can see in the picture, what I typed in for Product Label, Product Description, and Product Short Description is displayed. then I went back to Dashboard page again.
Next, I added your functions to rename these labels to my functions file. I just did a simple change replacing “Product” with “Service” for my example.
Then, from the Dashboard, I selected this Product again to “edit”. Then I captured this second picture. The labels changed appropriately. However, you see that what I had previously typed in for my Label, Description, and Short Description no longer is displayed.
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
I added your code to the functions file, and it did allow me to modify the labels on the Add Product page. However, we still have the problem mentioned above. Which is, if we change the labels, then the fields (of the labels you change) are blank when you edit an existing product.Perhaps in a future release, on the WC Vendors “Product Form” tab, we can have the Option to change the labels for Product Title, Product Description, and Product Short Description.
MarkParticipantConsider this resolved. I was able to fix my problem by increasing the bottom padding of the “expand/close” box.
.all-20 {
padding-bottom: 30px;
}MarkParticipantPer your suggestion,
I made a new copy of my site to http://www.wcvendors.com and changed the theme to storefront and I did not have the same problem. Do you think I may be able to fix this via a CSS change or by modifying the product-edit template?MarkParticipantTo clarify, I meant the filters to be able to rename the headers “Product Name” or “Product Description” etc… on the Add/Edit product page.
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
Were these filters fixed to work in v1.2.5? If so, has KnowledgeBase been update on how to use them?
Was going off this info in the changelog: * Added: Filters for add/edit product helper text #333
MarkParticipantI’m using the KLEO theme, which is very popular and has woocommerce as a plugin that is recommended to use within it.
MarkParticipantfyi,
In my case,
I did little testing and I found out that the social links wont display if what I call the grey overlay box (that covers the vendor store banner) is changed from grey to transparent in CSS. Not sure, but this might be caused by the type of icon used to represent the social link. However, all the other text still appeared over the banner, like store name and ratings and a vendor profile link. I don’t know if you consider this a minor bug..wcv-header-container #inner-element {
background-color: transparent;
}MarkParticipantI tried searching for that thread but couldn’t find it, however, I just desire a link on my main menu bar that points to the logged in user’s vendor store for now. I will hide the link on the menu bar if they are not a vendor
Will I need some custom coding in order for it to dynamically point to the logged in user that’s clicking on the link or is there a way to have a variable in the link
for example, if I had a member whose username is “demo1” and create a link on my menu bar to point to http://mysite/vendor/user_login where user_login will be translated to demo1 or demo2 (if he was logged in) or demo3 (if he was logged in)…etc
If I need custom coding, then I’ll worry about it later. thanks.
MarkParticipantAdditional info, I am using the default product-edit template v1.2.3 and have not overridden it
MarkParticipantHi Ben,
I have the same problem and I also use that code to rename the “Product Description” .
MarkParticipantThanks, that fixed my problem with displaying the default banner.
another question. Im trying to change the font color for the ratings line that appears here in the store banner. I updated this line (around line 91 in the store-header template)
<h3> <?php if ( ! WCVendors_Pro::get_option( ‘ratings_management_cap’ ) ) echo WCVendors_Pro_Ratings_Controller::ratings_link( $vendor_id, true ); ?></h3>
by adding the <h3> </h3> code. I have h3 fonts set for a gold color. The color changes to gold if there are ( 0 ) ratings or no reviews. If I have at least one review, then the font stays at the default color.
fyi, I have not customized the store ratings template yet. Any ideas?
MarkParticipantJust to clarify,
Do I delete this line <?php echo $store_banner; ?>
and then replace with all of this<?php if ( is_array( $store_banner_src ) ) {
$store_banner = ‘‘;
} else {
// Getting default banner
$default_banner_src = WCVendors_Pro::get_option( ‘default_store_banner_src’ );
$store_banner = ‘‘;
} ?><?php echo $store_banner; ?>
