Sale price is not visible untill after product update

  • Hi, thanks for this plugin :).

    Since WooCommerce 2.6, when my customer adds a sale price in Smart Manager, it does get saved, and going to the “Edit Product” screen does show it in the variation.
    On the frontend it isn’t visible however.
    After just hitting update in the “Edit Product” screen, with exactly the same data, it does get shown on the frontend.
    I suspect Woo 2.6 requires some extra data for a sale price now, and Smart Manager doesn’t add that data yet.
    The product is a variable product, clothes with different sizes.

    @marcel,

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

    As rechecked, updating sale price using Smart Manager is working perfectly fine. It seems that your issue could be related to the theme installed on your site.

    Explaining further, Smart Manager does all the updations at the database level and does not invoke any of the WooCommerce update hooks which might be required by your theme to display the updated price.

    So, if possible, could you please try to switch to some default WordPress theme and then have a recheck with the same issue and do let us know your views on the same.

    Hi,
    Thanks for responding.
    I am using a child theme of Storefront. When testing with Twentysixteen the same thing happens.
    I tried to track down what changes there are done in the database, when Smart Manager updates a post, and when the product editor updates that post.
    I do think I spotted a bug…

    In the file /sm/woo-json.php there is the function woo_insert_update_data() that does all the work in updating. At the end it calls the Woo function wc_delete_product_transients() without a post_id. When I add a post_id there, of the parent product of which I am editing a variation in SM, it does update on the frontend.

    Looking at that function in /woocommerce/includes/wc-product-functions.php it is not clear to me if that does anything when $post_id = 0.
    That function looks the same in 2.4 as in 2.6 btw, so it is a bit mystifying to me why it is happening to me now :).

    @marcel,

    Thank you for the update.

    Yes! as rechecked, we do agree with you that the wc_delete_product_transients() function would accept the product id. So, we have made the same changes and the same fix will be included in the next release of Smart Manager.

    Also, if you need the pre-release changes, then please do get back to us at ‘support(at)storeapps(dot)org’ with short issue description so that we can send you the files.
