FAQ
-
How do I create a raffle product?
-
Go to Products > Add New. In the Product Data metabox, select “Raffle” from the product type dropdown. Configure the ticket range, start/end dates, and other options in the Raffle tab.
-
Can customers choose their own ticket numbers?
-
Yes. The ticket selector on the product page lets customers pick individual numbers, search for a specific number, or view a range. Selected numbers are reserved during checkout.
-
What happens if a customer doesn’t complete checkout?
-
Reserved tickets are automatically released after the configured reservation timeout (set in minutes per product). The customer will need to select tickets again.
-
How are winners selected?
-
When the competition end date is reached, winners are selected automatically from paid tickets. You can also manually close a raffle and select winners from the product edit screen.
-
Can I change the ticket range after tickets have been sold?
-
No. Once tickets have been generated for a product, the range is locked to prevent inconsistencies. This is enforced automatically.
-
How do I translate the plugin?
-
The plugin includes a
.potfile and a complete Spanish translation. Use Loco Translate or Poedit to create translations for other languages. Translations are loaded automatically by WordPress.
