Very Limited

Hi @delaitec

Thank you for taking the time to share your valuable feedback. Based on your comments, it seems that you may have encountered some site-specific issues or that the feature might not have been thoroughly tested. Let’s delve into this matter further in the conversation below.

the system does not obey the cent separator settings defined in Woocommerce, that is, countries that use a comma “,” to separate cents,
must be content with using the dot “.” .

It’s possible that the issue you’re encountering is specific to your site, as the Dokan system is designed to fully adhere to the decimal and thousands separators set in WooCommerce’s settings. To address this, please refer to the setting displayed in this screenshot:  https://snipboard.io/eZT3Gb.jpg. As you can see in the output presented in this screenshot: https://snipboard.io/5U4ApB.jpg the system accurately reflects the chosen settings.

Moreover, when the setting was adjusted as demonstrated here: https://snipboard.io/VUoJdW.jpg he output remained accurate, just as shown in this screenshot: https://snipboard.io/3NnKvm.jpg.

In light of these findings, we can reasonably conclude that the issue may be site-specific, which is not uncommon when multiple plugins are employed on a single site. Alternatively, it’s possible that the settings themselves were not configured correctly. We’re here to assist you in resolving this matter, so please don’t hesitate to create a support topic.

the plugin does not allow you to use the payment options defined in Woocommerce.

I respectfully disagree with the assertion that Dokan does not permit users to utilize the payment options defined in WooCommerce. In fact, Dokan fully supports all WooCommerce-compatible payment methods in a non-adaptive manner. Additionally, all payment-related administrative settings within a Dokan-built marketplace are managed through the WordPress admin panel’s WooCommerce > Settings > Payments screen.

For further information on Dokan’s available payment gateways and how to configure them, I encourage you to refer to our documentation at the following link: https://dokan.co/docs/wordpress/common-questions/available-payment-gateways-in-dokan/. This resource should provide you with comprehensive insights into the payment options available within Dokan.

In addition to other meaningless limitations, created just to complicate the use of the Lite plugin, such as forcing the ADMIN to approve new products registered manually.

The feature that requires admin approval when a vendor uploads a product serves a crucial purpose in monitoring all product submissions. It helps ensure that only desired and appropriate products are displayed on the marketplace. I’m genuinely sorry to hear that this feature didn’t align with your specific needs. However, it’s important to note that this feature is highly valuable to many of our users and is considered a key aspect of marketplace management. Therefore, I respectfully disagree with the notion that it is a meaningless or unnecessary feature.

I trust that we’ve conveyed our perspective effectively. If you have any additional questions or require further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to support you in any way we can.

Thanks!

Hello,

I’m glad you pay attention to your product to the point of responding to reviews with this level of detail.

I did the tests on a website created from scratch, with as few plugins as possible, But based on your comments, I’m going to clone a website I have with woocommerce and it’s fully functional, and add dokan to it, let’s see how it behaves.

As for the requirement for the admin to authorize products.

I believe it is an important feature, perhaps I expressed myself poorly, what I meant to say is that not giving the user the possibility of automatically approving all products is something that seems to be on purpose for sell the pro version (I imagine it has this feature), because in a situation with hundreds of stores, and other stores being created all the time, it will be very difficult to approve all new products manually, they could at least give the user the possibility to choose whether they want to automatically approve or not, as with the ability to sell after creating the store.

I’m going to make a suggestion, which could be a game changer for your tool, how about releasing all the resources, in the free version, but limiting it to 50 stores, and in the pro versions, charging to release more stores, 100, 200, unlimited, etc.

This way, any user will be able to test the plugin’s maximum capabilities, and when they reach the store limit, which means they are already on the path to success, and more financially stable, they obtain the pro version to continue growing the business. (it’s just a suggestion).

Thank you for your feedback, and I will soon test the plugin again. Have a great week.

Hello @delaitec,

We genuinely value our users’ input, and we consider their feedback to be of great importance. We believe that providing clear and comprehensive explanations is crucial, which is why you received a detailed response from our team.

This matter could have been more effectively addressed through a support topic rather than in a review. Nevertheless, we do have a code snippet available that enables vendors to publish products directly, even when using the Dokan Lite plugin. To implement this, you’ll simply need to add the code snippet provided below to your child theme’s functions.php file or use a code snippet plugin like this one.

add_filter( 'dokan_get_default_product_status', function( $status ) {
    return 'publish';
} );

add_filter( 'dokan_post_status', function( $statuses ) {
    $statuses['publish'] = dokan_get_post_status( 'publish' );
    return $statuses;
} );

With respect to this issue, I would like to kindly request the moderators’ attention.

I genuinely appreciate your perspective and suggestion. However, I regret to inform you that, currently, there is no plan to change the model in the manner you’ve proposed. Nevertheless, I want to assure you that our dedicated team will certainly consider your input for future discussions and potential improvements. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we’re always striving to enhance our services.

I’d like to clarify that promoting a pro version is entirely within the guidelines set by WordPress itself, as indicated by this reference: [reference link].

Thanks!
