Crowdfunding for WooCommerce

Description

Crowdfunding for WooCommerce plugin adds full crowdfunding support to WooCommerce.

When adding or editing a product, you will have the possibility to set for each product individually:

• Goal (i.e. pledged) amount.
• Start and end dates.
• Custom “Back This Project” (i.e. “Add to Cart”) button labels.
• Enable “Open Pricing” (i.e. “Name Your Price”) functionality.

Also you will be able to:

• Add a form, so your customers/users could add their custom campaigns directly from frontend.
• Set custom HTML to show when project not yet started and/or ended.
• Modify and choose where to display crowdfunding info, that is: goal remaining, time remaining, already pledged etc.
• Choose when and if to end the campaign (goal reached, time ended).
• Choose which order statuses to count in pledged calculations.
• Style progress bars for time remaining, already pledged etc.
• Enable/disable emails on crowdfunding campaign ended, added and/or edited.

Shortcodes

When displaying crowdfunding data for the product, you should use plugin’s shortcodes:

Cannot get plugin to work

shiftaction February 5, 2020 1 reply

I have tried to set this up and I cannot even get a “Back” button on the page for supporters to back campaigns. Am trying different plugins and so far minimal settings do not seem to be enough. Support seems to be dead on this.

Bad support & documentation

leobo September 26, 2019 1 reply

The docs are not very convenient. The support is non-existent. The design is not ok at all. As a user of the plugin, I had to custom typos and css… I will not recommend this plugin.

no documentation
