## Description

Forge Barcode Fulfilment Manager for WooCommerce adds a barcode-and-fulfilment toolkit
to
 WooCommerce: it generates a barcode for every order, lets staff scan orders 
to advance their status from a simple front-end page, and produces branded PDF invoices.

**Barcodes**

 * Automatically generates a QR code or Code128 barcode for every new order.
 * Barcode value encodes the WooCommerce order ID.
 * Optionally attaches the barcode image to order emails.
 * Admin metabox with an inline barcode image and a one-click regenerate button.
 * Bulk tool to generate barcodes for all existing orders.

**Scan to fulfil**

 * Front-end scanner via the `[forge_ops_scanner]` shortcode, restricted to users
   
   who can manage WooCommerce.
 * Works with USB / hardware barcode readers as well as manual entry.
 * Looks up an order, previews it, and advances its status (e.g. to processing or
   
   completed) in one tap.
 * Configurable per-status workflow and an optional auto-complete countdown.
 * REST endpoints (`forge-ops/v1/order-preview`, `forge-ops/v1/scan`) protected
   
   by capability and nonce checks.

**Invoices**

 * Branded PDF invoice generated automatically when an order is completed.
 * Signed download links and a “Download Invoice” action in My Account > Orders.
 * Print/download an invoice from a single order, or in bulk, on the Orders screen.
 * Choose which WooCommerce order emails the invoice is attached to.

All generated files are stored in unguessable, per-site upload directories and
 
served only through signed handlers, so customer documents are not publicly enumerable.

**Premium (Forge Barcode Fulfilment Manager Pro add-on)**

The following are provided by the separate Pro add-on and are not included in this

free plugin:

 * Additional documents: packing slip, delivery note, dispatch label and shipping
   label.
 * A6 combined order label (barcode + address + item list).
 * Extra scan actions (mark dispatched, add order notes, print documents on scan).
 * Scan history log with per-order timeline, filterable admin log and CSV export.

## Installation

This package is self-contained — all PHP libraries are bundled, so no Composer or

npm step is required.

 1. In wp-admin go to **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin** and upload the
     forge-barcode-
    fulfilment-manager-for-woocommerce.zip file (or extract the `forge-barcode-fulfilment-
    manager-for-woocommerce` folder into `wp-content/plugins/`).
 2. Activate **Forge Barcode Fulfilment Manager for WooCommerce** from
     **Plugins >
    Installed Plugins**.
 3. WooCommerce must be active; if it is not, the plugin shows an admin notice and
    
    stays inactive.
 4. On first activation a setup wizard opens — follow it to choose the barcode
     format,
    scan workflow, invoice branding and the page that hosts the scanner.
 5. All options can be changed later from the plugin’s settings screen under the
     WooCommerce
    menu.

## FAQ

### Do I need Composer or npm to install this?

No. The distribution ZIP bundles all required PHP libraries (mPDF, endroid/qr-code,

picqer/php-barcode-generator). Just upload and activate.

### How do I add the scanner to a page?

Place the `[forge_ops_scanner]` shortcode on any page (Gutenberg Shortcode block,

Classic editor, or an Elementor shortcode/HTML widget). Only users who can manage
WooCommerce can use it. The setup wizard can create this page for you.

### Which languages do the PDFs support?

This build bundles the DejaVu font family, which covers Latin, Western European,

Cyrillic and Greek scripts. Characters outside those scripts (e.g. CJK, Arabic, 
Indic) will not render on generated PDFs in this build.

### Where are generated files stored?

In per-site, unguessably-named subdirectories of the uploads folder. Invoices are

served only through signed download handlers.
