Hello WooCommerce 2.0!

Written by Coen on March 4, 2013 Product News.

In my memory, it seems like yesterday when we decided that our next release would be a major release. Instead of releasing version 1.7 with just new features, we decided to rewrite a large part of our code that we always wanted to change and go for a 2.0 (code name: Daring Dassie) release. Today is the day that marks the start of a new era for WooCommerce.

WooCommerce 2.0 is here (now available via WordPress.org) and it is a major release. We have rewritten large parts of our code base, we have added new features and have made it better capable to handle everything you need for your online store.

Sucuri audited and approved

Security is very important for all websites and especially for online shops. That’s why we’ve been working with Sucuri on the road to WooCommerce 2.0, where they have audited our code and said this about our plugin:

Sucuri security assessment: “The code in the WooCommerce plugin was noticeably built with security in mind. It appears obvious to the review team that there was significant effort placed in building a clean and efficient plugin.”

As developers we can not get better feedback on our work and for you as a user it will give peace of mind to know that the code running your website is actually safe.

Before you update to WooCommerce 2.0

Before you update your live website to WooCommerce 2.0, please use a test environment for all your testing. You can use the test environment as a sandbox to simulate the update and make sure your website will continue to work after you update it to WooCommerce 2.0.

We know you all are eager to start using this new version, but this is a big update, so please take your time and make sure that you prepare your website properly. Also be sure to check out our WooCommerce 2.0 Update Process.

IMPORTANT: Once you run the updater wizard to convert your data to WooCommerce 2.0, there is no undo. The data will be changed in such a way that there is no way back. The only way you can get the ‘old’ data back is by restoring a backup. This stresses the importance of having a backup strategy and testing everything on a test environment before touching your live website. It is not that we don’t want to restore the data, it is because we can’t.

Stuff store managers will love

As a store manager you will live in the backend of your online store and we’ve been going above and beyond to make it a better experience for you there. We’ve added a bunch of new features and also improved existing features:

The product data panel has been redesigned in WooCommerce 2.0
  • Better stock handling – We have added an option to hold stock for unpaid orders (defaults to 60mins). When this time limit is reached, and the order is not paid for, stock is released and the order is cancelled.
  • Easier email template editing – You can now edit each individual transactional email from the dashboard and easily move template files to your theme for more detailed editing.
  • Improved tax options and new input panel – It has never been this easy to setup complicated tax options.
  • Multi download support – Products can now have multiple downloadable files attached to them – purchasers will get access to all the files added.
  • New order screens – Order pages have had a cleanup, with a more easily scannable interface. We particularly like the new status icons!
  • New product panel – We have revised the product data panel making it cleaner, more streamlined, and more logical. Adding products is a breeze!

Stuff customers will love

Real time checkout validation

Of course you want your customers to love your online shop. Most magic for customers will happen in a theme, but we’ve made a couple small changes that will make a big difference on the frontend:

  • Improved pagination & sorting – Numbered pagination has been added to core, and we show the number of results found above the listings. Customers can now also sort products by popularity and ratings.
  • Star ratings in archives – We have added star ratings to the catalog which are pulled from reviews.
  • Realtime checkout validation – To improve the checkout process, there is now visual feedback as to whether the customer has input valid (or invalid) data into each input field. If you’re using a theme which disables the WooCommerce Stylesheet, you can easily add it yourself with some basic CSS.
  • Quicklinks to cart when adding products via AJAX – When using the AJAX add to cart feature, users are now presented with a link to the cart immediately after clicking the ‘Add to cart’ button.

Stuff for developers

We have a huge pool of developers working with WooCommerce every single day and we are developers ourselves. That’s why we’ve been working hard to make WooCommerce 2.0 even better suited for developers, next to everything we’ve pushed in for our users.

Under the hood
There are a couple real big stores running WooCommerce (including our own website), where performance is hot on the agenda. That’s why we’ve made these improvements:

  • Session handling – PHP SESSIONS have been a problem for many users in the past, so we’ve developed our own handler using cookies and options to make these more reliable.
  • Improved line-item storage – We have changed how order items get stored making them easier (and faster) to access for reporting. Order items are no longer serialised within an order – they are stored within their own table.
  • Autoload – We have setup autoloading for classes – this has dramatically reduced memory usage in 2.0.
  • Localization – Not only have we added a lot more translations bundled with the plugin, we have also split up the translation files to make them more memory efficient.

Frontend
To make templates and themes easier to use and also benefit of new techniques and tools, we’ve been improving the way our frontend works:

Fancybox is replaced with prettyPhoto
  • Retina-ready – Inline with the WordPress 3.5 update, all graphics within WC have been optimised for HiDPI displays.
  • All round template & hook tidy-up – To further improve customisability we’ve added new templates, such as loop start & end to change product listing markup and have also separated the user account panel so you can safely edit individual sections. Redundant hooks have been removed as we move towards making the template structure more user-friendly.
  • CSS overhaul – To help reduce potential class conflicts with other plugins and themes, all WooCommerce markup (including shortcodes) is now wrapped in a parent ‘.woocommerce’ or ‘.woocommerce-page’ class. In addition, all WooCommerce classes themselves have been standardised to use the ‘.woocommerce-’ naming convention.
  • Product tabs rewritten – Product tabs are now filterable which makes adding new tabs and removing current ones more convenient.
  • Fancybox replaced with prettyPhoto – Prettyphoto brings some new features such as thumbnail navigation in product galleries, as well as a more powerful API for developers to use when building extensions. PrettyPhoto is also the lightbox script of choice in our themes so will improve efficiency when using WooCommerce with a WooTheme.
  • Cache friendly cart widgets – Cart widgets and other “fragments” are now pulled in via AJAX – this works wonders with static page caching.

Backend
The backend is where most of our magic happens and we’ve done a couple real big changes there that make the life of a developer easier and with more options:

  • New product classes – The new product classes and the product factory make it much easier to create custom products and types. For example our Subscriptions extension is already using it right now, giving you all new options that weren’t possible before.
  • API improvements – Not only have we improved our API functions, we have also made them easier to work with and much more memory efficient.
  • Capability overhaul – More granular capabilities for admin/shop manager roles covering products, orders and coupons.

Compatibility with our themes and extensions

We have worked hard to ensure all our themes and extensions work with WooCommerce 2.0. Once you start testing this update (please read the above paragraphs about preparing your installation), make sure you have the latest versions of all your WooThemes products. Check the My Account view on woocommerce.com and be sure to use the WooThemes Updater plugin to get the updates for our products right in your administration panel.

Found a bug? Need help?

As I’ve mentioned before, WooCommerce 2.0 is a real big update. If you think you’ve found a bug, please report it back to us. Although we have been doing extensive testing on WooCommerce 2.0 before releasing it, please report everything you think is a bug.

Think it is a bug in the WooCommerce plugin? Make it an issue in our GitHub issue tracker. If you need any help with our premium extensions or themes, do drop us a line via our support portal. In case you just want to discuss something WooCommerce related, or have a great idea for our plugin, let us know via the public WooCommerce forums on WordPress.org.

Enjoy the future of WooCommerce!

Daring Dassie, ready for launch

We are very excited about this new release and we truly believe that this pushes the WooCommerce plugin to the next level.

During the testing stages we’ve been getting some great feedback from the people testing, so we are very much looking forward to how you all like this new release.

We wish you all a lot of fun and sales with WooCommerce 2.0!

      March 4, 2013 at 4:30 pm #

      If the extension is for sale on this website, we have checked it and treated it as one of our own to make sure it is compatible with WooCommerce 2.0.

        That’s what makes WooThemes so good. Attention to detail. It is obvious that you care deeply about the code and your customers.

    I updated the software without testing and my store is broke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please I need some support, your support link isnt working please help!!!!!!!!

    • Coen Jacobs
      March 4, 2013 at 5:56 pm #

      Please define ‘my store is broke’, because this make it very hard for us to help you. In case you have product pages that end up being 404 errors, please save the Settings > Permalinks page without changing anything.

      If that is not the case, you can post this kind of questions in our public support forum: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce or in case you are a WooThemes customer via our support portal: http://support.woothemes.com

      For everyone directly updating to WooCommerce 2.0.1 this will be fixed automatically during the update.

      • Coen Jacobs
        March 4, 2013 at 5:58 pm #

        Correct, which is why we now have pushed out WooCommerce 2.0.1 and this update does that automatically for you. So if you are at version 2.0.0 please save the permalinks settings. If you are directly updating to version 2.0.1 from a 1.x version, this will be done automatically.

    Where is the logout button?

    • Sandie
      March 4, 2013 at 6:34 pm #

      Set up a page with [woocommerce_logout] on it. Set it up in the WooCommerce page settings as the ‘logout page’. Add that page to your menus where you want the “logout” option to appear. It’s more work than ticking a box to append it to the MyAccount menu, but means more people should be able to position it exactly where they want it.

        na, this plugin is old and buggy..and does not really provide real comparison. the user has to add all products manually to the compare tables..that is so oscommerce 1999ies style… and not useful.

        • Ryan Ray
          March 9, 2013 at 12:11 am #

          How else do you compare products, isn’t there some user input required to choose the products to compare?

    So far, mostly good.

    I’m using Canvas with WooCommerce and trying to modify the CSS for Product pages is a Pain. In. The. Ass. The client has an all black background website with white and grey text (yes, I know, but they insisted and they are the ones paying) and the woocommerce-tabs/woocommerce_tabs CSS (where the product description/additional info/reviews tabs are) isn’t editable unless you hunt down the proper CSS in the proper CSS file and modify it… Please fix this.

    Aside from that, I can’t find a way to add additional photos now – they have to be added to the product description. The “exclude this photo from gallery” checkbox is gone.

    March 4, 2013 at 11:26 pm #

    Update went kind of well, but I found some issues. At least on my site (fortunately only related to backend):
    – On some simple products the text has gone white in the product text area (post area). Making it hard to see unless I CTRL A the area.
    – I don’t see the new status icons on the order overview
    – The single order looks kind of weird. Like the order data is not using the entire screen (almost like I’m coming from a mobile device.
    – The single product doesn’t show the new Product Data tabs vertical, but still horisontal
    – Some products went missing. I hadn’t put in a specific price for all variation (because it defaulted to the standard price in WooCommerce 1.6), but because it didn’t have a price it just didn’t showed up.
    – The product gallery (in the backend still) on a product page has huge pictures and not usable

    This is my findings so far. I hope some of it is a plugin conflict or something. But I will investigate further tomorrow.

    James Koster, every single support ticket I have submitted in the past 6 months has not been solved. I posted 2 in the past month and neither are solved. You guys always just say you will ask the developer then mark it solved, and I never hear anything again.

    I am quite happy to put up screenshots showing this if you like.

      Deactivating the product enquiry plugin has fixed the /home/spectrab/public_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/woocommerce-template.php on line 792 but the product description is still displaying wrongly.

      FYI the line of code your error mentions is part of our product tabs functionality which was rewritten in 2.0. I’m guessing you have a third party plugin which affects this functionality that hasn’t been prepared for 2.0. Or one of our extensions which you’ve not yet updated.

        Hi,

        This error can be suppressed if folks set WP_DEBUG to off in the wpconfig.

        For the plugin, we were able to fix it in the woocommerce-template.php with

        if(is_array($tabs))

        Yes I deactivated product enquiry tab (which customers use all the time btw) and updated the theme and the problems got fixed.

        On another site I have far worse problems, Simplicity seems not to work with WC2, there are JS errors through the dashboard, shipping doesnt work (Ive had to disable shipping as otherwise it says shipping is unavailable in your area, I believe this is a theme problem?), the list goes on.

        Sidebar widgets have disappeared and cant be dragged back into the sidebar.

        I wish to god you’d mentioned the fact that eway AU would no longer work with WC2.

        I think I’m going to just have to go back to backup.

          eWay does work – in fact, if you check your account page you’ll see our eWay module now supports UK, NZ, and AU all in one. All of our own extensions have been checked for compatibility.

            March 6, 2013 at 5:11 am #

            The eway gateway wouldn’t save as ‘enabled’. I repeatedly attempted to enable it and it repeatedly just refreshed the page with the gateway still not enabled.

            In any case I’m using fat zebra now – they implemented a fix.

            The JS errors were being caused I think by followup emails – I dont know why or how but the version had gone back to 1.0 (!) so I deleted and reinstalled.

            The products panel is still all over the place. Maybe it’s another plugin causing the display issue but I’m running out of steam lol

            I think a lot of problems were caused by plugins / theme not being the latest version. THe thing is, my dashboard was telling me everything was up to date, yet when I then checked the changelog at woo I saw this wasn’t the case. So had to very painfully replace them manually.

            Also if anyone else has an issue with shipping – it’s because you need to specify a shipping class for each product. Previously if there was no shipping class specified it just used default.

    I see that the post says “Cache friendly cart widgets” so that it caches better.

    Is there a preffered caching plugin that pretty much works out of the box? I did try Total Cache and it tarnished my website and broke the layout for some odd reason.

    I was just about ready to publish my site live with woocommerce and here you guys come out with a major update 😀

    Question: Im trying to use WC on a content store. The multiple files feature for virtual/downloadable products seems very interesting. Is it possible to upload files to an order AFTER that order has been placed and paid for? Or are these features only for digital producs like software/video that are ready to deliver at time of purchase?

When I put more zipcodes in the “taxes by zip/postal code” section it gives two seperate taxes on my check out page. Please help! I’ve been frustrated with this all day

    Boom! Congratulations on a great release.

    I think the WC Product Factory will prove to be the single most important change in this release. It’s already made it possible for me to add a variable subscription feature to WC Subscriptions.

    Other developers can use it to create all sorts of new product types – auctions, bookings, something for crowdfunding.

    A very exciting future ahead for WC! 🙂

    I have a the shop theme by organic themes. When I updated the plugin, I lost the slide show and all the products on my home page. a message came following the update saying, “Your theme does not declare WooCommerce support – if you encounter layout issues please read our integration guide or choose a WooCommerce theme.” Then it came with instructions.

    I made a duplicate page.php file

    named it woocommerce.php

    Found the loop and replaced it with

    Saved the file. (did not get rid of the old file, since it said duplicate, not replace.)

    Nothing happened.

    One question: Does the new tax options include the possibility to display different prices (with or without tax) based on the customer´s country ? In europe we need to display prices including tax, while in USA the prices should be displayed without tax.

    Or is there another (plugin) solution for this ?

    I have been working really hard the last past weeks to get a woocommerce based customized ecommerce site. I have follown all steps neccessary to avoid problems when updating WordPress core or plugins. Working with a personal plugin where I store all my custom code, dequeing css and js to queue mine, unhooking actions to get my customized code to be executed, customized shortcodes, customized templates, child theme….

    I am really worried about problems I might get when updating wordpress core or plugins as this project is meant to be used by dozens of (small) shops, so any maintenance I need to do when anything is updated has to be multiplied by… dozens. I can imagine a situation like this might mean a crash for my company.

    I have been working for a few hours and got some problems with class names in woocommerce.css (it seems that some “_” have been changed by “-“), not very critical actually but still annoying. Now I am finding some incompatibilities between last version checkout and current one, due to the way product metas are being treated.

    Shouldn’t older versions be fully compatible with new ones? Should I be worried about the impact I might get in further versions? Any advices to get my website fully functional again? Any advice on custom modification strategies?

    Any opinion is appreciated.

      I can assure you that backwards compatibility is very important to us. You simply start with the biggest changes we’ve ever done to the code since WooCommerce was first created. We decided that we had to drop some of this backwards compatibility in this 2.0 release, to remove a lot of legacy code that was holding us back for a long time.

      The update strategies we’ve mentioned in this post and all previous posts always apply though. You are working with code, so it can change, yes. We do our best to keep everything working with previous versions, but sometimes it is impossible. My best practice is to use a staging environment, test everything there and clean up bugs before using it on a live website.

      In the end, we’re improving WooCommerce by breaking backwards compatibility every now and then. We try to avoid it, but sometimes there is no other way.

    Another fantastic update and loving it so far. I’ve been testing across my sites and the only two issues so far seems to be with another Word Press plugin called Advanced Access Manager and WC Logging produces a warning saying the folder is not writeable. But it would appear the folder is actually deleted upon upgrading to WooCommerce 2.0.1

    With Advanced Access Manager plugin activated, the “Products” menu disappears from the Word Press dashboard and “Coupons”, “Reports” cannot be accessed in the WooCommerce menu.

    With Advanced Access Manager plugin deactivated, everything works fine.

    Anybody any ideas or suggestions for the two issues?

    Again awesome product!!

    I’ve had to switch to jigoshop because woo commerce is no longer compatible with my theme. I’m so disappointed. I tried to install the older version, but it gives me an error. I wish I’d never clicked on update, everything was working so perfectly before, and now I have data I can’t access locked in the plug in. Hopefully organic themes will find a way to be compatible with this plugin again. 🙁

    • Coen Jacobs
      March 5, 2013 at 10:39 pm #

      Sorry to hear that you’ve parted ways with WooCommerce, but you should realise that it is actually the other way around. It is not WooCommerce that is no longer compatible with your theme, but it is your theme that is lacking updates since we’ve started changing the plugin towards version 2.0.

      In the end, it doesn’t help you right now I’m afraid, but you do need to realise that it is your theme that is holding you back and not the plugin breaking compatibility with your theme. Now you’ve moved to Jigoshop, you will run into the same issue once they start updating something that your theme isn’t changing as well. So I don’t think you’re solving your problem here now, but are simply changing what the problem is.

      Last, but certainly not least, this is exactly why we’ve been recommending to make backups before updating and why the popup after you click ‘Update’ also reminds you to do so. If you have made a backup, you can restore this and download the previous WooCommerce versions from the .org plugin repository.

      • Lola
        March 15, 2013 at 9:06 pm #

        I did back it up through i-page, but the older version wouldn’t install. Organic themes is working on a fix, but it’s taking forever. I switched to jigoshop just so the slideshow is visible; i didn’t fill in any of the data because I’m hoping to switch back once the fix is done. I love the look of my theme. Does Woo commerce have a theme that looks like this and actually functions:

        http://LOLAcaninecouture.com

        I was able to go w/o it functioning for the past 2 weeks because I’m launching a new line, but in a week I need it to function, even if I have t start from scratch.

        Thanks!

    “Product tabs rewritten – Product tabs are now filterable which makes adding new tabs and removing current ones more convenient.”

    I still have to figure out how to add a tab using v2.01 and make it work with Tab Manager. Is there any clear documentation on how to add new tabs to products with v2? I tried to look in the docs, but if I search for “add tab” or “product tabs” I only get results concerning Tab Manager. I want to use Tab Manager to remove some default tabs, then add some new tabs from my theme. I’ve a ticket opened for over 10 days now (#18774) and my problem hasn’t been solved yet.

      Hello Coen, Ryan, and James,

      The WC 2.02 is way ahead of 1.6.6. Lot of new thought has gone into the new release.

      The release info above talks about: “Product tabs rewritten – Product tabs are now filterable which makes adding new tabs and removing current ones more convenient.”

      In fact I’ve been looking for exactly this kind of solution. I also did a broad requirements analysis of what we all want, in terms of UX and functionality.

      Product Info Tabs in WC 2.0.2:

      WC 2.0.2 offers Description, Product Short Description, and Review content editing areas in 3 different places, rather confusing.

      A. Main Text editor appears near the product image appears as Description,

      B. Product Short Description appears as Product Description,

      C. WC 2.0.2 > Settings > Catalog > Product Data > Show weight and dimension values on the Additional Information tab show up as Specifications content

      The above rendering might differ depending on the theme in use, perhaps.
      Goes without saying the importance of furnishing essential product information in a fine way after getting a e-commerce site up and running. Internet users’ve come up with many tedious workarounds to insert more product info tabs and content. Nice if WooThemes can provide a interim plugin and integrate the following functionality in WC 2’s forthcoming updates that has and does the following:

      1. The Product Page has an integrated content editing area, with the facility to add a maximum of 20 tabs with custom names.

      2. The existing Description, Specifications, Additional Information, and Reviews tab editors appear under each other by default. These tabs’ names are re-nameable and re-orderable by drag-and-drop.

      3. “Add new tab” Checkbox placed below each rich text editor. When checked, opens a new tab below with “Enter tab name” in the name field. There’s a “Show this Tab” checkbox, if checked, displays this tab and content in the rendered page. If not not checked, this tab does not stop preceding or succeeding tabs from displaying their content.

      4. All Tabs labels’re re-nameable, and appear as ordered in the back-end.

      5. Each tab has URL fields for text and images, which can fetch and render content from that URL.

      6. The product’s weight and dimension values appear in an editable table in the default Specifications tab. Hitting the keyboard’s Tab key on the end of a row must create a new row.

      7. If a tab is named Reviews or Review, or User Opinions, or any similar tag, this tab offers to display excerpts of the Testimonial post type content. The user can also pull in content from other URLs using the functionality mentioned in 5.

      8. Tab content is re-used across all products in the Shop, and figure in the import/export, and backup of Shop.

      9. All tabs must render their info seamlessly without breaking the theme’s stylesheet, and easy closing of the product’s sale.

      WC’ll be fuller for users if it can do the tabs well.

      My 2 cents. Thanks for your time.

    Hey guys! I love the new features and functionality of the new version!

    Integration into my third-party theme wasn’t completely smooth, but with some clever CSS styling I was able to get it looking even better than before!

    Unfortunately, I now have to restore a back-up of my site – because of this problem:

    * UPS Shipping Extension now refuses to auto-update shipping costs. The cart shipping calculator works fine, but when going to checkout if you try to change any data… it just sits there – stagnant.

    I’ll put in a support ticket, I just thought it was worth mentioning.

    Using WC since beginning, and like it more on every update.

    Moved from Magento for some stores without any regret.

    Can anyone tell me if it have built in option to get client TAX ID? Not just get TAX ID, but also show it on every order, register it on every order (client could have some orders with different TAX ID’s)?

    I did a lot os custom code to get this working, but with this major update of course it will stop to work.

    Thank you.

    Fantastic, good work guys… woohoo, yippee and all the celebratory words that can be used…
    HOWEVER… having waited for over a year for one simple extension “product Addons’ to be fixed so that the pricing is updated dynamically on the cart. it is almost ridiculous that we have to wait this long, especially when Mike moved it to Git under the issues trac.

    Hey guys I’ve updated my site to WooCommerce 2.0.2 but I’m having 2 problems. First of all the new product data form as in your post above is not displaying on the Add Product pages, I still have the old one.

    Second problem is I’m using Artificer and despite updating the Framework to 5.5.5 the theme still seems to have some problems. For example on a product page where the description goes, usually there would be tabs for Description, Additional Information and Reviews but the tabs aren’t showing and my product pages look a mess. Also the star ratings on the All Products page are now left-aligned for some reason.

    Wish I hadn’t bothered to update 🙁

      Hi Vachan,

      You can insert the Indian Rupee (₹) in the Currency list this way too:

      Go to webroot > wp-content > plugins > woocommerce > woocommerce-core-functions.php

      In line 684, add:
      ‘INR’ => __( ‘Indian Rupee’, ‘woocommerce’ ),

      In line 748, add:
      case ‘INR’ : $currency_symbol = ‘₹’; break;

      Save

      James, nice if this’s included in the next WC 2.0 update.

    is it in any way possible to make the ‘add to cart’ button visible on product pages by default? This is a big issue when it comes to conversions on certain shops.

    Way to bork the taxes… I made a plugin to upload tax rates based on zip code using a csv file that is provided for free for every state, you used to be able to just download this csv and import it in my plugin. Now after the new update all of your tax rates get deleted. You implemented a very stupid way of inserting these rates into the DB and retrieving them from the DB IMO not sure why that was changed as it worked fine before and you could have just implemented the same thing my plugin did…

    And then you show an option to import tax rates based on a csv file like I was doing but yet the structure is horrible, and I have yet to find anyone that provides tax rates based on zip codes in a csv that is structured like that… So what was the idea behind that? Just create your own csv file? Whats is the point of that isn’t that double the work when you could just enter them in one by one into the plugin anyway? Or if you know of a place that offers free csv files that are structured like the way they need to be now why not post a link to it in the plugin?

      Your theme needs updated for WooCommerce 2.0 support. We obviously don’t develop Flexishop, so you’ll need to check with the creators of the theme for WooCommerce 2.0 support.

      Please heed the lesson here of updating crucial plugins without testing them first.

    I am not sure why you guys have done this but I have a message on all my stores in the settings area that says “Data Update Required – We just need to update your install to the latest version – Run the updater” now I am sure I am not alone here but when a client of mine sees this they click that dreaded Run the updater button!!! now I have 20 stores or so broken!! why would you have this message there? and not have a little x button for hiding the message and allowing us wait until we are ready to update. Also the message itself is a little confusing as it does not say that this “is an entire new version and you need to have a theme update also and you need to backup” – a client will just go ahead and click update!!!

    Now of course I know you need to backup before an update but a client will just go ahead and click run updater especially the way you have phrased this message – a little easy breezy which is fine from a friendly marketing point of view but a disaster for an unsuspecting client of mine, please phase update scripts like this correctly!!

    All in all great job on woocommerce 2.0 looks super in terms of the update but please release an update immediately to allow us hide this message if we do not currently have steps in place to upgrade – this only seems logical. Exposing a message that says “data update required” means every single person clicks upgrade with no knowledge of the upgrade procedures. Thanks for creating a months work here!

        March 7, 2013 at 11:21 am #

        That sounds such a simple solution doesnt it when you say it in one sentence. Not really the response I was hoping for to be honest Ryan. For the sake of argument lets run with that you have said. I have logged in under the Shop manager role which every client will need – I still see the message: ”
        Data Update Required – We just need to update your install to the latest version – Run the updater”

        So which role do I give them?

      • allmyhoney
        March 7, 2013 at 11:23 am #

        Also please bear in mind Ryan, these messages did not appear in previous versions – this is knew – I had no idea you guys were going to do this – then I have no idea of how to plan for it. I wish I was a mind reader but I aint – I assumed this message was just for admins – it is not – so please refer to my previous role.

        1. most shop managers see this message.
        2. Please read your message without a knowledge of WooCommerce updates – it does not make sense. It seems to refer its easy – just click here its a simple data update.
        3. Neither of the above makes sense to a shop manager role.

        Any ideas on this?

    Thank you much! WC 2.0 was well expected. I created a test environment and updated woocommerce. There’s a significant improvement in functionality, but the layout didn’t seem to to adapt itself very well on my site, http://test.tree-paintings.com . In the product pages , the product description was moved to the right side, making it look a bit confusing in such a narrow area. Products descriptions look better in WC 1.6. http://tree-paintings.com . There might be a way around this? Thank you 🙂

    Getting a js error in review order page. If I use the non-minimized checkout.js file it seems to be an error on line 344 when retrieving locale value.

    I have reached to it when trying to customize shipping cost calculations. I am using a code based in AWD Weight/Country Woocommerce plugin. The idea is shipping costs will be calculated based on the weight of all the items in the order and the shipping country.

    The problem I am finding is, whereas changing state/province, town or zipcode makes totals to be recalculated it does not happen the same when changing the country. I don’t know whether it is related to the js error or it has been designed to work like this, but I think recalculation should also be triggered when changing the country for the order to be shipped. Thus customers would see the real total cost of their orders before confirming, and not after (shipping costs are correctly charged according to the country to be delivered, even thoug they might be different to shipping cost shown in totals block).

    Any advice or idea on how to deal with it?

    Thanks!!

    • Ivan Pallarés
      March 7, 2013 at 2:07 pm #

      Ok, some more info.

      This js error happens everytime I change the country so, apparently it is trying to do something and probably gets stuck because of the error. I have seen the paragraph where this select is has a ‘update_totals_on_change’ class, so so I assume it is supposed to recalculate totals but not capable.

      I have unchecked the General Settings “Enanble enhanced country select boxes” option and also used just two countries (I was working with “All countries”) and still get the error.

      Anyone?

      Thanks

    Not a fan of the prettyPhoto plugin.

    Hover arrows shouldn’t exist on a product image with only 1 asset, nor should there be a ‘gallery’ version of the photo ontop. I’ve yet to look into the configuration but it’s definitely not an ideal default setting.

    could it be, that after the update to the actual version, the woocommerce.css is not loading properly? i noticed some ‘bugs’ and i am analyzing it at the moment, but i can’t read all the comments here (no time for that, sorry), so maybe someone had the same issue.

    i am working with my own theme and overrides of some parts, but i never had a issue with the css-styles.

    I’ve never had this issue before and nothing I’m doing is fixing it. Please help!

      I’m almost certain this is a theme issue, it needs updated to include 2.0 support. It doesn’t matter that you copied over a file if it doesn’t have 2.0 support.

      Contact the theme developer to get help with that!

    I have upgraded to Woocommerce 2 and the Woocommerce CSS is no longer appearing on my website. It is enabled in the settings but I can clearly see there is no styling and a quick inspection of the code using Chrome’s Inspect Element shows that none of the Woocommerce elements are getting any CSS. What’s going on?

    • Ryan Ray
      March 8, 2013 at 7:00 am #

      My first guess is theme conflicts, we’ve changed CSS classes in 2.0

    We just purchased WooCommerce over the last couple of months and are still in our site development. We’ve run no live transactions, just conducted some preliminary testing.

    Do we need to purchase 2.0 or is there a gratis upgrade path?

    • Ryan Ray

      WooCommerce is completely free, so hopefully you’ve not paid anyone for our WooCommerce plugin.

    Any chance on being able to upload one image for multiple products without uploading it every time and creating duplicates?

    • Ryan Ray
      March 8, 2013 at 6:56 am #

      You’ll find all uploaded files in the media library, no need to upload it every time it needs used. Just select it from the media library.

        March 8, 2013 at 8:19 pm #

        Yes that works if you want to input the image into the short description or description of the product but only new images will appear in the product image gallery. Am I missing something?

    Sorry to write it again, just in case it got lost among next comments, as it is giving me a hard time:

    Getting a js error in review order page. If I use the non-minimized checkout.js file it seems to be an error on line 344 when retrieving locale value.

    I have reached to it when trying to customize shipping cost calculations. I am using a code based in AWD Weight/Country Woocommerce plugin. The idea is shipping costs will be calculated based on the weight of all the items in the order and the shipping country.

    The problem I am finding is, whereas changing state/province, town or zipcode makes totals to be recalculated it does not happen the same when changing the country. I don’t know whether it is related to the js error or it has been designed to work like this, but I think recalculation should also be triggered when changing the country for the order to be shipped. Thus customers would see the real total cost of their orders before confirming, and not after (shipping costs are correctly charged according to the country to be delivered, even thoug they might be different to shipping cost shown in totals block).

    […]

    Ok, some more info.

    This js error happens everytime I change the country so, apparently it is trying to do something and probably gets stuck because of the error. I have seen the paragraph where this select is has a ‘update_totals_on_change’ class, so so I assume it is supposed to recalculate totals but not capable.

    I have unchecked the General Settings “Enanble enhanced country select boxes” option and also used just two countries (I was working with “All countries”) and still get the error.

    I was (still am) in development mode with WooCommerce version 1.6.6 when 2.0 came out. I went through the upgrade process with version 2.0.2 fairly painlessly expect for one issue…

    The images on the single product page have grown in size by approximately 50% causing significant layout issues, particularly pushing content to the right and below the images into the sidebar and footer.

    Has anyone run into this?

    (other than that, the new features are exactly what I was hoping for in the next major release, many thanks, and great work)

    • Ryan Ray
      March 9, 2013 at 9:01 am #

      Most likely a theme issue as we changed a few class names in 2.0, try to update your theme (whichever that one is) to have 2.0 support.

  123. Frenkie

    I really like the new add products page, great job really! Especially the added ´product gallery´ is a big relief. A pitty though that this gallery option isn´t there for the variations.

    Ofc i would like all my variations to have their own set of photo´s. Got 5 bags in 5 different colors photographed from 5 different angles so each bag (color) needs to have it´s own gallery/set of photo´s attached to it.

    Don´t like the new image handler though, hopefully this will get changed when theyre will be enough feedback on this.

    Great job guys

      Looks like plugin error means it’s most likely not ready for 2.0

    • Ryan Ray
      March 10, 2013 at 6:36 am #

      Is this because it broke something on your site (aka theme and extensions need updated with 2.0 support) or is there something about 2.0 you don’t like?

      You can’t effectively downgrade if you’ve upgraded your data to 2.0 unfortunately, if you have a backup of your site and database you can restore that though.

    Just discovered that all of my variable products are broken – it would seem that the database upgrade converted all of the quotes in my attribute names to html codes (unfortunate as many of my products have sizes in inches which are denoted by quote marks)

    Looks like a busy day tomorrow going through all of our products and manually fixing the attributes and variation details.

    just updated to Woocommerce 2.0.3 and my site just stopped working. The error has to do with the customized shipping method I am using, where I extend WC_Shipping_Method class. In the log it shows like:

    PHP Fatal error: Class ‘WC_Shipping_Method’ not found in …..

    It used to work perfectly before this last update.

    Anyone has any clue?

    I did the product variation….by setting Product Data >> from Simple product to be Variation product.
    Then I go to the attribute tab and add the “size” with value “M|L|XL”. After that I go to the variation tab and add variation. I then go to the frontend, there is no drop-down options for the size. Please kindly see http://yum2yum.tk/product/001/
    Do you think that I do anything wrong on woocommerce2 or get misunderstood ?

    March 15, 2013 at 4:17 pm #

    When I add to cart, and then remove it, and try to add it again from the shop page, I get the notification that it is already in my cart in:

    Mac – Safari 5.0.5 and Firefox 16.0.1

    PC – IE 7 (sorry – a friends computer – I have not tested on any other verison of IE) and Chrome.

    It works on Mac Chrome. Actually in Firefox I didn’t even add it to my cart first, so maybe this feature is relying on IP?

    I have the individually sold feature on because:
    The notifications that the item has been added to the cart only seem to appear on Chrome, Mac and because the quantity field looks a little mangled with two sets up up/down arrows.

    My site is http://k9aggression.com

    I use a theme that is compatible up to 2.0.2 and my wordpress is up to date. All my plugins are turned off except for woomcommerce.

    Is anyone else getting this?

        Hi Anne

        Please log a support ticket and we can investigate this for you, however just a quick look it is evident that your theme does not have support for WooCommerce 2.0. I suggest you get in contact with the developers of the theme and inquire about that. If you have any other questions or issues please log a support ticket.

  142. pink_ice
    March 18, 2013 at 11:02 pm #

    I realize that this may need to be submitted to support. But I want to post here so that others also know they are not the only ones having this problem with variations. I am having to go through and manually redo all my variations which is not acceptable. I see other comments above where others are seeing their variations have disappeared on the front end. If there are this many folks having this issue, please fix it. If all these customers are submitting support tickets please post the resolution and save us time as well as your team. I do NOT want to fix each one of my products variations manually. My theme has been updated recently by the developer for 2.0 (Sommerce). So it’s not the theme. ~Thanks

      I just noticed the update after I posted my comment and was nearly relieved until I ran the update and got an error “The plugin generated 11343 characters of unexpected output during activation.

      Now my WooCommerce won’t activate. 🙁

      So anyone else who might be having this issue…there’s an update waiting for you in your plugins.

    I’ve tried to switch the notifications ‘Off’ and then back ‘On’ but it’s not making a difference. This is a major hindrance and I’m not sure if others are facing the same issues. I’ve send in a support ticket earlier today as well. Please help!

    The new product sorting feature with menu order has a bug. On the front end, even though default sorting is selected, the menu order does not take effect. You have to click on another sorting type such as price, let the page load, then re select default sorting. Once you are at this url /shop/?orderby=menu_order the product sorting by menu order now works… So id say this feature needs fixed.
