Stuck on step 3

    Recently (maybe due to an upgrade) the coupon generator stopped working – when I get to step 3, “Generating Coupons”, it says – under the “Generating Coupons” title:

    0%
    0%

    and then there’s the rotating circle, and it never finishes. I tried to create a single coupon and gave it several minutes to complete and it did not.

    I see nothing suspicious in the logs, and there are no obvious error messages on the screen. How should I go about understanding the problem and fixing it?

    Sorry, forgot to add some details.

    Versions:
    – WordPress: 4.9.4, Multisite
    – Woocommerce: 3.3.4
    – Coupon Generator: 1.0.1

    There is also looks to be a problem with the style of the plugin – its pages are completely unstyled – just text with no images or colors. This may or may not be related to the fact that the site in question is using the Hebrew version of WordPress (right to left rendering order).

    Hi Guss,

    What you’re describing sounds like there’s either a JavaScript error, or the scripts are not loaded in at all.

    Could you maybe open the debug console in your browser, and post a full page screenshot of what you’re seeing / experiencing?

    Sorry, should have checked that as well.

    Using Firefox, when I click generate coupons, I get this error in the console:

    ReferenceError: WCCG_Generator is not defined[Learn More]
    admin.php:370:11
    <anonymous>

    K
    https://giborim.roleplay.geek.co.il/wp-admin/load-scripts.php:2:30366

    From looking at the relevant line (admin.php:370) in Firefox dev console, it looks like the “minimum_amount” form input line, and there is no Javascript there.

    In Chrome the dev console says this:

    admin.php?page=woocommerce_coupon_generator&step=3:370 Uncaught ReferenceError: WCCG_Generator is not defined

    There are otherwise no notices in any of the other steps.

    Hi Guss,

    Thanks, from that it actually does sound like it is not loading the scripts at all.

    Could you try and comment out / remove these two lines and see if it does show the proper styling / allow for generating coupons?

    That indeed solved the problem – I get the correct styling and the progress bar finishes and coupons are generated.

    should I leave the code like that or is there another fix I should do?

    Hi Guss,

    Thanks for trying / verifying that!

    Really strange that Multisite doesn’t pass that ‘if’ check. Could you maybe add the following line to the file (below the first commented out line);
    error_log( print_r( $current_screen, 1 ) );

    When you’ve done that, visit the ‘Coupon generator’ page once and remove/comment out that line to prevent multiple entries in your error log.

    Please check your error log and post the output of that entry here.

    Thank you!

    This is the object in the log:

    WP_Screen Object
    (
    [action] =>
    [base] => %d7%95%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%95%d7%9e%d7%a8%d7%a1_page_woocommerce_coupon_generator
    [columns:WP_Screen:private] => 0
    [id] => %d7%95%d7%95%d7%a7%d7%95%d7%9e%d7%a8%d7%a1_page_woocommerce_coupon_generator
    [in_admin:protected] => site
    [is_network] =>
    [is_user] =>
    [parent_base] =>
    [parent_file] =>
    [post_type] =>
    [taxonomy] =>
    [_help_tabs:WP_Screen:private] => Array
    (
    )

    [_help_sidebar:WP_Screen:private] =>
    [_screen_reader_content:WP_Screen:private] => Array
    (
    )

    [_options:WP_Screen:private] => Array
    (
    )

    [_show_screen_options:WP_Screen:private] =>
    [_screen_settings:WP_Screen:private] =>
    )

    This explains the problem. The first “woocommerce” string in the screen ID is translated to Hebrew on this site. I’m not sure what generates it, but it clearly comes from Woocommerce itself and its a translatable string.

    Maybe you’re using some string translation plugin that translates the Woo slug?

    I can’t find any translated slug in WC Core itself that would indicate behaviour like this..

    in class-wccg-admin.php 72 line

    if ( ‘woocommerce_page_woocommerce_coupon_generator’ == $current_screen->id ) :
    ->
    if ( ‘woocommerce_page_woocommerce_coupon_generator’ == $current_screen->id ) :
    )
    should change this .

    if you are not using english, this is current_screen->id is not “woocommerce”
