## Description

**Cross-Sell with Discounts for WooCommerce** shows the right add-on products at
the moment customers are ready to buy — in the mini-cart, on the cart page, and 
at checkout — with an optional automatic discount and a savings badge.

You decide which products are suggested and which category triggers them. As soon
as a customer has a product from a trigger category in the cart, the matching cross-
sell products appear as one-click suggestions. The discount applies automatically
while a trigger product is in the cart, and disappears when it is removed — no coupon
codes needed.

The plugin is **theme-neutral**: it uses the standard WooCommerce mini-cart hook
and works with Storefront, Astra, Kadence and other common themes. For themes without
a matching mini-cart hook (or block themes), a shortcode and a block are provided.
Optional adapters keep full compatibility with the **Flatsome** theme and the **
WooFood** plugin.

#### Key features

 * Category-based cross-sell suggestions — configure the trigger category per product.
 * Optional automatic discount per product (0–100 %), shown with a struck-through
   original price and a savings badge.
 * One-click “add to cart” without a page reload (AJAX), including in the block 
   checkout (Store API).
 * Suggestions in the mini-cart, on the cart page, and at checkout — each location
   can be toggled on or off individually.
 * Per-page rule to hide suggestions once a cross-sell product is already in the
   cart.
 * A global heading above the suggestions, plus per-product short description, image,
   and link options.
 * Works with the classic **and** the block-based cart/checkout.
 * HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) compatible.
 * Query result caching with automatic invalidation for fast mini-cart and checkout
   on large catalogs.
 * Diagnostics tab explaining why suggestions do (or do not) appear, with a preview
   simulation that never touches the live cart.

#### How the discount works

The discount is a price reduction on the cart item, not a WooCommerce coupon, so
it combines cleanly with coupons. An active sale price stays the basis: the cross-
sell discount is calculated from the lower of the regular and sale price and never
undercuts the sale price.

#### Pro add-on

A separate **Pro** add-on adds role-based discounts: give individual user roles 
an extra discount on cross-sell products, configurable per role (percentage and “
add” or “replace” mode), with optional per-product overrides. The free plugin works
fully on its own; the Pro add-on is optional.

## Blocks

This plugin provides 1 block.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `cross-sell-with-discounts-for-woocommerce` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`,
    or install it through the WordPress Plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress. WooCommerce must
    be installed and active.
 3. Configure suggestions on two levels:
 4.  * **Per product** (Cross-Selling tab in the product editor): enable the product
       as a suggestion, set an optional discount, priority, short description, and 
       the trigger categories.
     * **Per category** (category editor): enable the category as a trigger and set
       how many suggestions it contributes.
 5. Set the global display under **WooCommerce  Cross-Sell**: heading, button label/
    icon, display locations (mini-cart / cart / checkout), and performance/caching 
    options.

## FAQ

### Does it work with my theme?

Yes. The plugin uses the standard WooCommerce mini-cart hook and works with common
themes such as Storefront, Astra, and Kadence. For themes without a matching mini-
cart hook or for block themes, use the `[wccs_cross_sell]` shortcode or the “Cross-
Sell Suggestions” block. A dedicated adapter keeps full Flatsome compatibility.

### Does it support the block-based cart and checkout?

Yes. Suggestions are rendered after the checkout block (hydration-safe), and adding
a product refreshes the Store API cart and totals without a page reload.

### Is the discount a coupon?

No. It is a price reduction applied to the cart item, so it combines cleanly with
WooCommerce coupons. A trigger product must be in the cart for the discount to apply.

### What happens to my data when I uninstall?

Deleting the plugin (not just deactivating it) removes all of its data: the settings
option, product metas, and category metas — multisite-wide. There are no custom 
tables or cron events.

### Can I give specific user roles an extra discount?

That is provided by the optional Pro add-on (role-based discounts, per role, with
per-product overrides). The free plugin does not include role discounts.

## Changelog

#### 1.13.2

 * New: The per-category “Max. suggestions” limit can now be set up to 20 (previously

 * Improved: Clearer settings labels and descriptions (cache suggestions, add-to-
   cart button, prefetch), with consistent “Cross-Sell suggestions” wording.

#### 1.13.1

 * Redesigned the plugin settings screen with a modern, card-based layout that is
   easier to scan and visually consistent with the Pro add-on. No settings or behaviour
   changed.

#### 1.13.0

 * Added two extension hooks for add-ons: `wccs_after_heading` (right after the 
   suggestions heading) and `wccs_item_badge` (inside each suggestion card). They
   are used by the optional Pro add-on’s info badge and have no visible effect on
   their own.

#### 1.12.0

 * Category-based cross-sell suggestions with optional per-product discount and 
   savings badge.
 * Theme-neutral rendering with a shortcode and block; optional Flatsome and WooFood
