FYI – I had an instance of WPP “crashing”
I executed a test order and was taken to the new “thank you for your order page” — which I believe is now an order summary by default.
In another browser tab, I changed the email address in “Order Settings”
Back to the other browser tab, I clicked the back button on the browser and was taken back to the orders page. I re-executed the order, and the page went blank.
Now all pages containing the cart short code are blank and are not rendering in the browser. If I remove the instance of the cart short code the page will then display.
If I deactivate WWP everything displays as one would expect.Thanks Olly
Under v2, I had three files (wppizza-default.css, wppizza-loop, and wppizza-order-email.html.php) that I copied, customized, and placed in my child theme’s root so they would load before the original files in the /plugins/wppizza dir.Can these files be used in their CURRENT form in v3? I fully understand v3 is a complete re-write so this customization may have to be re-written by me.
Also, I did see your notes in wppizza.custom.css and it says “This file will always be included after the main wppizza css”Great.
Any word on getting the custom CSS from v2 to work on v3?
I copied the css/php customized files to: themes/x-child and they don’t affect the layout. I did notice the difference in file names (i.e wppizza-default.css is now wppizza.default.css) and changed them, but still no dice.
Many thanksUpdate: The order page itself is working, but I’m missing the “checkout” button that’s normally apparent in cart widget [wppizza type=’cart’]
I have the empty cart button, but no “checkout”Hi Olly–
I successfully updated my test site to v3 170607.1
everything works fine, besides the order page and some customization on did on v2.I did see the warning in the development blog about needing to reset the order widget. I’m using the [wppizza type=’orderpage’] shortcode on the checkout page. The code is still in place but is not working properly, It’s simply rendering code.
What am I missing here? Has the shortcode been updated?While I have you, I have the following css/ php pages (with customization) in my child theme directory (from my v2 setup)
wppizza-default.css
wppizza-loop.php
wppizza-order-email-html.phpI also have some custom images (shopping cart) in a “img” dir in that same child theme dir.
I would think (since they are in the child theme) that they would still be active– so I’m assuming it has to do with the update. Are these able to be used?
Thanks much
It would be relevant if the hotel/Bnb room service sector was of interest to you. And with Airbnb, that’s now a lot of folks!
1) There’s virtually no other solution out there to meet the room service need. (I’m on forums where this is discussed at length)
2) it’s a tight-knit communityThere are tons of PMS (property management software) packages out there but NONE that handle food service well over a multi-day period.
WPP is already a working solution with v2.x. V3’s customer screen is another step forward. All we need is a checkout summary.
I’ve stated my point, thanks for listening! You’ve been great since day one Olly and I’m a believer in your product.
great. One last point/reiteration — The date perimeter would be wildly important to this cause…. We get a lot of repeat customers.
I’m sure the same is even more true of restaurants and pizza places.Just to clarify – i’m not suggesting this become “an Airbnb thing” — Airbnb is a strong platform. I’m only suggesting this modification to support the FOOD SERVICE side of our BnB. The side that Airbnb has no support for.
The two platforms would work independently. Airbnb would do all the reservations and booking, and then WPP would do the food ordering / order tracking for guests once they are here. There will be no interaction between the two platforms besides copying/pasting the final bill. Airbnb does allow for incidental charges.
As I was mentioning, there are many Airbnb hosts that offer food service… With no Airbnb support. I think WP pizza is a viable option and (I believe) it’s within the scope of the platform. This could be helpful for not only Airbnb hosts, but any bed-and-breakfast and small hotel owner.
Ok I get the idea lol… I’ll copy my site to a test location and try the upgrade.
I previously added the 3.x beta to another WP site I have. That helped me see the new UI and tools, but nothing more.
Btw… everything does look more crisp right out of the box. 2.x was no slouch, but I do like the improvements in 3.Any word on the “customer digest” request? I know it’s specific, so I’d pay for development time. I also have to believe the feature would make WPP a very viable option for Airbnb hosts like myself. I’ve already received several inquiries about our ordering system for other hosts. One “super host” wants us to build their room service site.
Airbnb has a nifty feature that allows hosts to bill for room service and other incidentals, a customer digest or “check out bill” that can be copy/pasted into the Airbnb text field would be ideal.Maybe this can be an extension?
WWP 3.X is pretty exciting. I read the log and installed the beta on another site we use for testing.
I see the customer screen and I think that will work for us! The search field is a real bonus. Would you consider adding a customer digest? — Combining all orders by a single customer (within a defined date range) on one “copy/pasteable” list? We would gratefully contribute to development hours on this.I do have a few questions about a 2.x to a 3.x update:
1) Understanding that this is a beta, is your warning still in place not to use this on a live site?
2) Will 3.x maintain any 2.x settings/customization?
Will WPP Menu items / Categories still be in place?
Will WordPress customization on the WPP pages still work?
Will WWP customization transfer? (various pngs and wppizza-default.css were updated
Will WPP settings/and localization be in place?
Will 2.x Order history remain?Thanks Olly that update would be great.
I do understand that the plugin was not intended for my specific type of use, but I still have the feeling that this type of report would be useful to more users than just me.All the data is already there, a customer query would be useful.
Thanks Oliver–
Just To clarify we are a B&B and typically have guests for a few nights and each guest typically places several orders. At the end of each stay we are needing to generate a total check out amount…. a final bill of all food charges (all placed via WPPizza.)
I dont think we have username/pass for guests (are they auto-generated?) but orders all have names and email addresses. Can we be filter by those?
These reports dont need to be emailed, just viewed by our admin staff for bill generation.
Hello!
Is there someone who can chime in on this?
namely #1….1) Is there a way to do a report by email or name that will show all orders for a particular guest so we can tabulate a bill upon check out?
Many thanks
