Adding a product automatically to the cart

  • Hello,
    I’m looking for the correct way to have this happen in my woocommerce store.

    Check the cart for items from category=”rooms”
    If any items in the cart are from the “room” category, then add a single product ID=”506″ to the cart.

    I only ever want one product 506 in the cart ever…regardless of how many items are purchased from the selected category.

    I bought Force Sells hoping that the Sync Forced Sell would work this way, but it adds the product 506 with every purchase of a different item within the category, and I don’t know how to limit it to only allow one instance of the product 506.

    Any help would be very much appreciated! I feel like this is an easy thing to do, I just don’t speak the language of Woo’s filters and actions…

    Thanks!

  • Hi there,

    Fortunately enough, you have various options even if you don’t speak hooks and filters ??

    See there for a humanly readable information: https://docs.woothemes.com/document/chained-products-vs-product-bundles-vs-force-sells-vs-grouped-products/
    I’m pretty sure one of them does the job for you!

    Should be chained products or force sells but you need to look for your specific case scenario

    Actually, none of those quite offer what I need exactly.

    So, I came across this on StackOverflow, which is basically what I need to be able to do, replacing the “Free Product” with the product I want to add to the cart.

    So logic should be :

    1. Check all the products that are added in to the cart
    2. Check that if any product in the cart having free products or not
    3. If yes, then simply add the free product.

    add_action( 'init', 'add_product_to_cart' );

    function add_product_to_cart() {
    if ( ! is_admin() ) {
    global $woocommerce;
    $product_id = 30; //Your product ID here
    $free_product_id = 2287; //Free product ID here
    $found = false;
    //check if product already in cart
    if ( sizeof( $woocommerce->cart->get_cart() ) > 0 ) {
    foreach ( $woocommerce->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item_key => $values ) {
    $_product = $values['data'];
    if ( $_product->id == $product_id ){
    $found = true;
    }
    }
    // if product not found, add it
    if ( $found )
    $woocommerce->cart->add_to_cart( $free_product_id );
    }
    }
    }

    But, when I add this to my functions.php, I receive an error message.
    Can anyone help me figure out why this isn’t working?

    Also, I would need this to work when any of the following Product IDs are in the cart : 203, 204, 205, 189, 208, 225, 228

    The product to be added is product ID: 506

    Anyone??

    What is the error message?

    Also have a look at error_log for any clues.

    “not found” in php is:

    if ( !$found )

    Should go for getting the first one working before expanding for the others.

    There’s nothing in the error logs on my server, that I could find anyway.
    I get a generic 500 Internal Server Error….
    But let me play around a little more and see what happens.
    Thank you for your input!
