Coupon description (suggestion)
-
Morning,
I’m the one having issues with spam, I had to do something else cause that was driving me crazy.
First, i’m not a programmer, so go easy on me, it took me the full day to do that !
So i wanted to display a different text on the mail sent to the client depending on wich coupon he bought. I quickly (not so quickly actualy !) discovered that i cannot just ‘had stuff’ randomly and it will magicly work. I had to use one of woocommerce ‘variables’ (i think). I found out that you did not use the ‘description’ of the coupon, so i used that.
Here is what i’ve done :In function.php i added :
line 145 :
$description = wc_format_content( $_POST[‘coupon_gift_name’] );
and i changed the ‘post_excerpt’ to be $description, a couple lines under
line 167 :
update_post_meta( $post_id, ‘coupon_gift_name’, $description );
In class-wc-gift-coupon-metaboxes.php I added :
line 23:
$description = reset(get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘coupon_gift_name’ ));
line 102:
woocommerce_wp_text_input( array(
‘id’ => ‘coupon_gift_name’,
‘label’ => __( ‘Coupon gift name’, ‘woocommerce’ ),
‘placeholder’ => __( ‘Coupon name on email’, ‘woocommerce’ ),
‘description’ => __( ‘Coupon name on email.’, ‘woocommerce’ ),
‘data_type’ => ‘coupon_gift_name’,
‘desc_tip’ => true,
) );
In mail.php i added :
line 130 :
$description = reset(get_post_meta( $product_id, ‘coupon_gift_name’ ));
update_post_meta( $new_coupon_id, ‘coupon_gift_name’, $description );
line 201 :
$coupons_mail[‘coupon_gift_name’] = $description;
And finaly in mail-template.php i used this $data[‘coupon_gift_name’] to display the description.The little bonus is that on the woocoomerce coupon pannel, i can see where the coupon are comming from via the description.
PS : i added a bunch of //////// around my codes, so the line number might be off by a couple, but i’m sure you will get the idea.
I hope this makes sense, and that other could benefit from it ??

Hi @henrischiltz.
I think that your suggestions could be:
In the plugin settings page add a checbox which say “Add body text or description product”. If people select “body text” then, its is the enabled functionally now…but if people check description, then we can get the description product to show in the body of coupon. Is that your suggestion?
Regards.
That would work, but in my case the PRODUCT description would still not be what i want to be displayed. So i added a way to set the COUPON description
On the original code in the function.php i replaced :
'post_excerpt' => 'Discount Coupon',
by
'post_excerpt' => $description,
and made a bunch of stuff to that on the product page in the admin pannel i have this box (sorry for the bits in french… i’m french… pardon) :
link to th
this field (who adds <p></p> around the text… for some reason i ignore) changes the woocommerce description of the coupon as seen on the coupon page :
link to the image
On the email template i then call this description to be displayed in place of the price (and i moved the price at the bottom)
The idea is that people can gift the coupon for a product (in my case, a hotel night) to someone.I think this is a nice addition so i thought i could make other enjoy it.
But on my end, it’s all working, no need for you to do anything.Now that i think about it, replacing the body text by the procuct description would be really cool too.
PS : sorry for my poor explenation, i blame my level of english and my lake of sleep due to the fact i worked late on this ??
Hi @roelvdp
Next version 2.8 will include:
1 – Can reemplace the title by the title′s coupon
2 – Can reemplace the description by the description′s couponIn the plugin settings page, you can choose if you want to display a custom title or coupon title…Similar with description.
I think that the versión 2.8 would be upload today or tomorrow!
