## Description

NexVendor – Simple Multi-Vendor Marketplace converts an existing WooCommerce store
into a lightweight multi-vendor marketplace. Vendors can register from the frontend,
list simple products, view and fulfil only their own orders, track earnings, and
request manual payouts. Admins moderate vendors and products, configure commission
rules, and process payouts from a dedicated WooCommerce admin screen.

This plugin is intentionally a **simple MVP**: it does not add custom database tables(
it uses WordPress user meta, post meta, and a lightweight internal post type for
payout requests), does not modify any WooCommerce core files, and avoids advanced
features like vendor subscriptions, vendor shipping zones, vendor coupons, or automated
split payments — these are left for future versions.

#### Core features

 * Frontend vendor registration (`[nexvendor_marketplace_vendor_registration]`) 
   with admin approval workflow
 * Frontend vendor dashboard (`[nexvendor_marketplace_vendor_dashboard]`): overview,
   products, orders, earnings, store settings
 * Vendors can add/edit/delete their own simple WooCommerce products, with optional
   admin approval before products go live
 * Orders automatically attributed to the correct vendor per line item, with vendor-
   only visibility into their own sales and limited shipping details
 * Configurable global commission (percentage or fixed amount), calculated and frozen
   per order item at checkout time
 * Vendor earnings tracking: gross sales, commission, pending vs. available balance,
   and paid totals
 * Manual payout request system with admin-managed status (pending / processing /
   paid / rejected)
 * Public vendor storefront pages at `/vendor/store-slug/`
 * A dedicated **WooCommerce  Marketplace** admin area: dashboard, vendors, products,
   commission, payouts, settings

#### Security

 * All state-changing requests are nonce-protected and capability-checked
 * Vendors can only ever read, edit, or delete data they own — ownership is re-verified
   server-side on every request, never trusted from form fields
 * Vendors are blocked from the wp-admin dashboard by default and redirected to 
   their frontend dashboard
 * All user input is sanitized on the way in and escaped on the way out
 * No custom database tables, no direct unprepared SQL

#### Requirements

 * WordPress 6.0+
 * WooCommerce 7.0+ (must be installed and active)
 * PHP 7.4+

## Installation

 1. Make sure WooCommerce is installed and active.
 2. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/nexvendor-marketplace`, or install
    the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen directly.
 3. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen in WordPress.
 4. Create a page containing the `[nexvendor_marketplace_vendor_registration]` shortcode,
    and another page containing the `[nexvendor_marketplace_vendor_dashboard]` shortcode.
 5. Go to **WooCommerce  Marketplace  Settings** and select those two pages, set your
    commission rate, and review approval settings.
 6. Approve your first vendor under **WooCommerce  Marketplace  Vendors**.

If the dashboard/registration pages are not explicitly selected in Settings, the
plugin will automatically try to detect a published page containing the matching
shortcode, so vendors are not redirected to the homepage.

## FAQ

### Does this modify WooCommerce core files?

No. The plugin only hooks into WooCommerce and WordPress through standard, documented
actions and filters.

### Does it create custom database tables?

No. Vendor data is stored as WordPress user meta, product ownership as post meta,
and payout requests as a lightweight internal (non-public) post type.

### Can vendors sell variable products?

Not in version 1. Only simple WooCommerce products are supported for now.

### How are commissions calculated?

Per order line item, at checkout time, using either a global percentage or fixed
amount (with the ability to override per vendor via user meta). The calculated split
is frozen onto the order item so it stays accurate even if you change the global
rate later.

### How do vendors get paid?

Version 1 ships with a manual payout system only. Vendors request a payout against
their available balance, and the admin marks it as processing/paid/rejected from**
WooCommerce  Marketplace  Payouts**. There is no automated payment gateway payout
yet.
