Great, thank you Alan!

I’ll check with my web host about why that .git directory is in the root folder, I don’t even have access to that.

Thanks for the tip about the filter, that’s really useful

I use WordPress Multisite, so plugin updates are installed at the network level. I don’t know if that makes any difference to the .git error…?

No, I can still install updates manually I think.

But I just discovered it has prevented auto-updates from being installed for the last few months!

OK, I have renamed .composer to composer_BAK and .npm to npm_BAK

It still says “The folder / was detected as being under version control (.git).”

I’m not quite sure if the website is installed in my home directory.

The website is installed in the httpdocs directory

It’s a VPS, and the directory structure is:
/var/www/vhosts/mydomain.co.uk/httpdocs/wp-content/

Thanks Steven,

I can see other hidden directories and files such .htaccess

The hidden files and folders I can see in the server root are:
.cache
.composer
.config
.local
.mysql_history
.npm
.pki
.profile
.ssh
.wp-cli
.wp-toolkit

The ones in httpdocs are:
.htaccess
.user.ini
.well-known

The only one in wp-content is:
.htaccess

There is no .git anywhere.

Yet when I check my WP Site Health it still says:
The folder / was detected as being under version control (.git).

I am completely at a loss as to what could be causing this…

I found my answer.

No need to modify the wc-product-export.js file.

Instead, it is possible to access the form post data directly from php. But any custom fields you have added using the “woocommerce_product_export_row” hook will be submitted as an array called ‘form’.

For example, if you add a new input field with name=”supplier”, you access it using $_POST[‘form’][‘supplier’] or $_POST[‘form’][0] (NOT $_POST[‘supplier’]).

Thanks @gabrielfuentes

A more general question which may be easier to answer is:

Is there a way of hooking into or adding to files in /woocommerce/assets/js/admin/ without overwriting the core?

My workflow is:
1. Admin receives an email saying e.g. “Product XYZ is low in stock, click here to order more https://domain.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=product&orderstock=1
2. If the admin is not logged in, WP will ask them to log in. Once logged in, it will then redirect them to https://domain.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=product&orderstock=1
3. If the admin is already logged in, they will just see https://domain.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=product&orderstock=1 immediately

This works on a standard wordpress and woocommerce install.

But once I have “Rename Login Page” turned on, the link above doesn’t work for logged out admins (it says “Not available”).

If I change the link to https://domain.com/secretpage/edit.php?post_type=product&orderstock=1 then it works for logged out admins, but it breaks if the admin is already logged in (it says “500 Internal Server Error”).

Is there a way of getting the email link to work for both logged in and logged out admins?

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion, but that only works if the admin is logged out.

Once logged in, link such as:
/secretword/post.php?post=123&action=edit
/secretword/edit.php?post_type=product&orderstock=1

Result in a 500 Internal Server Error

Hi. I’m using the “Rename Login Page” feature. Thanks!

I should clarify: I would like to add this functionality to all reports in woocommerce-admin analytics. I have seen the example extension ‘sql-modification’ from https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-admin/tree/master/docs/examples/extensions which adds a currency filter to all reports.

I would like to do something similar, but instead of currency, I would like to add an extra dataset. It would be a very simple dataset: simply a daily sales target. It would be displayed instead of last year’s sales, for comparison with this year’s sales.

What is the best method?

Thank you.

I don’t want to just search by SKU, I want to paste a whole set of SKUs into one field and create an order from them. Is this possible in the Pro version?

Thanks for the suggestion, that works perfectly now ??

Thanks for all your help John

Thanks very much John.

Unfortunately it’s not working for me though. When I switch users, cart contents are lost.

I upgraded to 1.5.2 and copied your code above into a code snippet that runs everywhere with priority 10, that should work shouldn’t it?

(If I add items to the basket and then log in without using user switching, cart contents are preserved, so I know that is working fine).

Hi John,

Thanks for the great plugin, it’s so useful. I also like that it’s really robust and professionally written with proper action hooks and support for filters.

Our use case: we often start building an order whilst logged in as staff, or not logged in at all. If we then discover that the customer already has an account, it’s really useful to be able to switch without losing the cart contents.

This worked really well until 1.5.0

What parts of preserving carts and sessions doesn’t work well in your experience?

Many thanks,
Jake
