WooCommerse with multiple vendors

WooCommerse with multiple vendors

WooCommerce multiple vendors decision – is it possible to setup this popular WordPress plugin for eCommerce that way?
WooCommerce is designed for the only shop owner by default. Yes, you may assign the ‘Shop Manager’ role more than to one user simultaneously, but all of them will have the same permissions. All of them will be the boss at your e-shop. What to do if you wish that your e-shop has multiple sellers with limited rights for editing their own selling items only? That is a seller or vendor (e.g. software developer) may input and publish at your e-shop his own items (software applications) only? Is it possible without additional programming? Read further and I show you one of the possible decisions.

User Role Editor v. 3.11 beta

User Role Editor v. 3.11 beta

User Role Editor WordPress plugin version 3.11 Beta is available for testing. You may download it from this link. It is generally bugs and bbPress compatibility issue fixes release. Thanks to plugin users who kindly reported discovered problems:
- Required WordPress version checking is moved to plugin activation hook and is not called every time when plugin is executed.
- Administrator can now exclude non-core (custom) capabilities from his role. It is useful if you need to fully remove some capability as capability deletion is prohibited while it is used at least one role.
- bbPress compatibility issue is fixed: capabilities created by bbPress dynamically are excluded from the capabilities set in User Role Editor to not store them in the database as persistent WP roles data or user capabilities.
- Additional roles are assigned to user without overriding her primary WordPress role and bbPress role.
- Changing WordPress user primary role at user profile doesn’t clear additonal roles assigned with User Role Editor earlier.

Post views stats WordPress plugin review

Is “Post views stats” ready for use?

“Post views stats” WordPress plugin purpose is to count views for your blog posts and show them at WordPress admin back-end in convenient way. It adds ‘View count’ column to the general posts list, and shows such statistics at separate page linked to “Track Post View” WordPress admin menu item, where you may filter out post view count for needed period, just select valid dates. I will not reproduce plugin in action screenshots here as they are included into plugin package itself and could be viewed as at WordPress.org, as at ChoosePlugin.com. As the bonus, blogger may show list of most popular plugins at blog sidebar, using special widget.
