Joinery Core

Description

Joinery Core gives your store a simple rule builder: choose when a rule applies (customer role, cart quantity, cart subtotal, product category, dates) and what it does (percentage off items or off the cart).

It is also the foundation for the paid Joinery plugins. They all use the same rules engine, pricing pipeline and customer wallet, so they work together without conflicts.

Works without code, and headless

Rules run on the server inside WooCommerce, so prices are right in the classic and block cart and checkout, and in the Store API for headless stores. Developers get a price-preview REST endpoint and can add their own conditions and actions with two PHP functions.

Privacy

Joinery Core doesn’t contact any external service and doesn’t track you or your customers. Pricing rules run on your own server. If you use store credit (added by paid Joinery plugins), each credit and use of credit is stored in your database and works with WordPress’s personal data export and erasure tools.

Source code

The admin screen’s JavaScript in build/ is compiled. Its readable source ships with the plugin in assets/ (including the shared packages in assets/packages/). To rebuild it, run npm install and npm run build in the plugin folder; it uses @wordpress/scripts.

FAQ

Does it work with the block cart and checkout?

Yes. Rules apply wherever WooCommerce calculates the cart: classic and block cart, checkout, and the Store API.

Do I need a paid plugin?

No. Joinery Core works on its own. Paid Joinery plugins add more rule types, such as tiered pricing, wholesale accounts and gift cards, to the same rules screen. A small “More rule types” panel there lists the ones you don’t have; you can hide it.

Does it slow down my store?

Active rules are loaded with one database query per request, and each price is worked out in a single pass through them.

Can developers extend it?

Yes. Register conditions and actions on the joinery_core_init hook. See the developer documentation.
