The customer chooses a point on a map, and the chosen point is saved on the order for Balikobot to read. Both WooCommerce checkout implementations are supported: * The classic shortcode checkout (`[woocommerce_checkout]`) * The Checkout block (`woocommerce/checkout`) Nothing has to be copied into the shop by hand. The plugin asks the Balikobot Portal which widget belongs to this shop, matched on the shop’s own web address, and which shipping methods offer a pickup point. No Balikobot credential is stored here. The only setting is whether the map opens in a dialog or is shown directly in the checkout. Balikobot is a paid shipping service. The plugin does nothing until you have a Balikobot account with this shop connected in the Balikobot Portal. #### Source code The Checkout block script in `blocks/build/` is compiled from `blocks/src/`, which ships with the plugin. To rebuild it, run `npm install && npm run build` in the` blocks/` directory. ### External services This plugin connects to services operated by Balikobot s.r.o. (https://www.balikobot. cz/). Without them there is no pickup point picker. #### Balikobot widget host The widget files are hosted by Balikobot on Google Cloud Storage, under https:// storage.googleapis.com/bb-dist-prod/widget/. Google only hosts the files: Google Cloud terms https://cloud.google.com/terms, Google Cloud privacy notice https:// cloud.google.com/terms/cloud-privacy-notice. * Your server downloads `widget/v1/config.json`, which names the Balikobot Portal API address, before it calls the Portal API (see below). The request carries only WordPress’s standard user agent, which includes the site address. * The customer’s browser loads the widget script `widget/v1/balikobot-widget.js` on the checkout page. When the customer opens the picker, the browser also loads the picker page, the map tiles (OpenStreetMap data) and the street search index from the same host. The picker page address carries the widget id, the shop’s web address and the checkout language. Like any web request, these requests reveal the customer’s IP address and browser to the host. #### Balikobot Portal API The Portal API (`https://portal-api.balikobot.com`) tells the plugin which widget belongs to the shop and returns the pickup points. * Your server calls `GET /api/widgets/resolve` and `GET /api/widgets/{id}/config` to learn which widget belongs to this shop and which shipping methods offer a pickup point. Both requests send this shop’s web address (the Site Address from Settings > General) and nothing else. They run when the cart or checkout page loads, when an order is placed, and on the Balikobot settings screen. * When the customer opens the picker, their browser requests the pickup points and their details. These requests send the widget id, the shop’s web address, the destination country and the name of the chosen shipping method, along with the customer’s IP address like any web request. They send no cookies and no customer name, address or contact details. * If the customer allows it, the browser’s location is used to centre the map. It stays in the browser and is not sent. The pickup point the customer picks is posted back to your shop and saved on the order.

Install and activate the plugin. WooCommerce 8.3 or later has to be active. 2. In the Balikobot Portal, connect this shop and switch the pickup point widget on. The Portal matches the shop by its web address, so the Site Address in Settings > General has to be the address registered in the Portal. 3. In the Portal, map your WooCommerce shipping methods to Balikobot deliveries and mark the ones that are pickup point deliveries. 4. Open WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > Balikobot. The Connection panel there says whether the Portal recognises this shop. The same screen sets whether the map opens in a dialog or is shown directly in the checkout. The picker then appears at checkout for the shipping methods you marked in the Portal. You need this plugin only for pickup point delivery. Connecting WooCommerce to Balikobot does not require it. ## FAQ ### Do I need this plugin to use Balikobot? No. WooCommerce connects to Balikobot without it. Install it only when you want customers to choose a pickup point during checkout. ### I activated the plugin and nothing changed at checkout. That is what happens until the shop is connected in the Balikobot Portal. The plugin asks the Portal which widget belongs to this shop; with no answer it shows no picker and checkout works as before. The Connection panel under WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping > Balikobot shows the web address the Portal was asked about. It has to match the one registered in the Portal exactly. A fix there shows on the next page load. ### Where do I choose which shipping methods offer a pickup point? In the Balikobot Portal, not in WordPress. The plugin reads the list from the Portal each time the checkout page loads. ### The picker failed to load for a customer. Can they still order? Every other shipping method is unaffected. A pickup point method needs a chosen point, so the customer sees a message saying the picker could not be loaded, and can try again or choose a different shipping method. ### Does it work with the Checkout block and High-Performance Order Storage? Yes. Both are declared compatible, and the chosen point is saved the same way on either checkout. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Balikobot Shipping App” is open source software.
