I am building an E-Commerce Website with Wordpress using the WooCommerce plugin. Trying to add a feature for customers to add a photo to their profile page. I want this to be manadorty so if the client did not upload photo, I want it to be requested at the process of checkout.
How should I go about this, I been looking all day and can't even find the right file that I am supposed to be editing. Thanks in advance.
You need :
Add a form in my-account.php (Check woocommerce_before_my_account hook for this)
Create a custom code to save the file in wp_usermeta table (Check add_user_meta() function ).
Check woocommerce hook after_woocommerce_pay to check if there is a photo associated to current user

When anyone order something through my Woocommerce website then the default functionality of woocommerce puts all orders under “Processing” state, I need them to land under “Pending Approval” status. Once I have made the order confirmation call, I will then mark them “Processing”. For this I need help in creating statuses through custom code in Wordpress, Then I need another status, “Dispatch”, for orders whose items I have already procured and are ready to be dispatched, they will be marked as “Dispatch”.
I am newbie in Wordpress custom coding, I know through functions.php I can control most of things through hooks, but I need help in this whole question.
Thanks in Advance :)
Download the extension from your dashboard
Go to Plugins > Add New > Upload and select the ZIP file you just downloaded
Click Install Now, and then Activate
Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Order Statuses and read the next section to learn how to setup and configure the plugin.

In magento I have:
created one template which I want to send to subscribed users.
Added that template in queue.
set cron job in magento.
I want to send newsletter template automatically to all subscribed users of store when admin added new products or new promotions using magento admin panel. How can I do that?
My Magento Version is 1.9.0.1
I was talking about the use of event-observer in magento. This is like a hook with the help of which you can insert your logic or code before or after some event occurs. For example
catalog_product_save_after
is the event which occurs after product is saved. You can learn more about it here.
You have to create a module that observe this event and there you have to implement your logic that is:
get the sku of the recently saved product and check it is already present or not(To check either the product is new or not.This should be check because the product can be edited too because while editing and saving also same event is observed), and then you can do rest i.e sending an email newsletter.
My explaination may seem confusing to you because you are new to this check that link and you will have your concept clear.
Hope this will help.
If you are simply wanting to add a link to the product into the newsletter then you can add a new newsletter template, then insert into this template using the cms widget "Catalog Product Link" you can add a link to a product. This is the same as adding a link to a product via a cms page or block.
If you are looking at sending a product list then I would suggest looking into how the widget "Catalog New Products List" works. You could extend this to take a list of product ids that need to be included in your list.
I am trying to create a "Notify me" feature if the stock is unavailable.
On search on admin panel, I could find only that a user should sign up / log in to get notified about the stock availability.
But I just want to let the user (a guest) enter only his/her email address to get notified.
How should I do this?
Please give suggestions..
EDIT:
I have got this link, which gives me a way to start.
Till now what I did is added the following code in my template file which is creating a url for redirect (thinking to do it in ajax way, to stop page refreshing).
<?php
$actual_link = "http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";
$base64 = strtr(base64_encode($actual_link), '+/=', '-_,');
$postUrl = "http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]/efk/productalert/add/stock/product_id/" . $simpleProduct->getId() . "/uenc/". $base64;
?>
In the above code, efk is my project folder name.
After this, I have gone to productalert/add/stock controller method i.e stockAction() which is calling sign up / login form (I think so) using $model->save();.
How should I disable this save calling and add my own small overlay which holds a textbox to enter a email address?
Magento has "Notify me when product is back in stock" feature out of the box. It can be configured in admin panel: system / configuration / catalog / product alerts and product alerts run settings.
You're right, it works only for registred customers. To make it working for guest users some coding is required. I'd say you need to do the following steps:
Add email column to product_alert_stock table
Create new controller and action (believe me, it's better than you override existing one via config.xml) which extends Mage_ProductAlert_AddController::stockAction(). Your method will have to set guest's email to productalert/stock model.
Create subscription form and make sure it submits data to your new controller/action.
Update (override) Mage_ProductAlert_Model_Observer::_processStock() method to make it respect situations when "customer" has no ID but has email.
When you'll be testing, I suggest you to install SMTP Pro Email extension and mailcatcher to ease the testing process.
We have done this (http://www.alfresia.co.uk/sorrento-side-table.html/). Here we ended up creating a custom module as when we did this magento did not support any product alert system for the guest users (i do not know if this is supported now).
We first created a text box which would appear on product page where the product is out of stock. We were saving this info in one of our custom tables where we the schema was {id, email, product_sku, status} (status had three values Awaiting Stock, In Stock, and Already Notified).
We then wrote an observer which was hooked to cataloginventory_stock_item_save_after event, this helped us get the product sku which has been back in stock, and update all entries in our custom table with status In Stock and send a mail to the user.
This is how we did it, surely there will be a much cleaner way doing this.
You could have work with plugins. MagentoCommerce has loads of plugins/extensions which does the same
Free Version - http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/product-out-of-stock-subscription-1350.html
I too had similar requirement, and have installed 'http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/product-out-of-stock-subscription-1350.html' this plugin.
Well this plugin does the job, But they have override complete product view page template instead of simply adding a new block. By this your custom development on product view page development might get reflected on frontend.
Or else this plugin definitely does the job.
This http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/product-out-of-stock-subscription-1350.html plugin is really good but it breaks for configurable product types and it completely overrides the product controller which makes your system vulnerable to future upgrades. I think observers should be hooked to events where the product is back in stock and should update the users.
i need WordPress shopping cart function with or without any pluggins. When a registered user click the add to cart button on the normal post, it needs to go to shopping cart. The checkout function should not have the shipping and payment gateways as the user click the check out button he should recieve the mail for order confirmation with the permalinks of the post bought by him, meanwhile the post permalinks has to be saved in data base which can be viewed by the user later. Admin should recieve the mail for perchasing order.
Perhaps you can use this plugin. Its a wordpress e commerce plugin and should take care of all the things you have mentioned.
Salman, Try WP e-Commerce one of my favorite and o.s plugin

If you really need a simple cart other than Wordpress integrated plugin, you can go for OpenCart, which was easily administrate and user friendly with analytics and so on...
Please see my answer to similar question here.
In addition - the WP Order Cart plugin does not save orders to database, it only sends the order email to both buyer and seller - this functionality is still in development.
is there a specific magento function which updates the Referred By field in the Magento User Admin Panel? I would like to execute this function once during the registration, however have trouble finding where this maybe located.
I then want to use this particular function to add a custom email address into that field during registration.
