FAQs

How can I show all products on sale using a shortcode?

↑ Back to top
The sale prices aren’t actually being changed in the database, it is happening on the fly based on the promotion configuration. We added a new attribute to the products shortcode called pw_sales_scheduler. To use it, append the pw_sales_scheduler attribute to your products shortcode. For example:
[products limit="4" columns="2" pw_sales_scheduler="8" ]
This will show 4 products in 2 columns from the PW Sales Scheduler Event “8”. For more information on the products shortcode, follow this link: https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/ Note: to get the PW Sales Scheduler Event ID, click on the Deal inside the event to edit it. You will see the ID in your browser bar.
