## Description

**[Try the live demo](https://demo-store-admin.pluginect.com/demo/)**: a real store
with orders, products and customers. Nothing to install, no account to create.

WordPress was built for publishing. Running a store in it means digging through 
menus named Posts, Appearance or Tools to find your orders. **Plugnect Store Admin**
gives your WooCommerce admin a new shell, organized around what a merchant actually
does every day.

#### A menu built around your store

 * **Commerce**: Home, Orders, Products, Customers, Analytics
 * **Marketing**: Campaigns, Discounts
 * **Online store**: Theme and preview, Pages, Navigation, Media, Emails
 * **System**: Plugins, Users, Settings
 * **Apps**: every other plugin’s menu, collected automatically so nothing gets 
   lost
 * **WordPress**: blog posts, comments, tools and the original dashboard, one click
   away

The current section stays highlighted on every related screen, and its sub-pages
appear right under it.

#### Screens designed for merchants

 * **Home**: revenue, orders, average order value, new and returning customers, 
   a revenue chart, your priorities for today, latest orders, top customers, stock
   to watch and a setup checklist.
 * **Orders**: tabs with counts (to fulfill, pending, completed, cancelled, refunded),
   search by number, customer, email or product, payment and fulfillment badges,
   bulk status changes, and a **quick view** that opens any order in a side panel(
   customer, items, totals, addresses) with its status buttons, without leaving 
   the list.
 * **Order page**: a clear page instead of the WooCommerce editor: a progress bar(
   placed, paid, shipped, completed), the items and totals, a timeline of everything
   that happened with your notes and messages to the customer, the customer’s history,
   and addresses you can correct in place. The next step is one button away (“Confirm
   payment”, “Mark completed”).
 * **Products**: thumbnails, stock badges, 30-day sales, and **price, stock and 
   status editable right in the table**.
 * **Product editor**: create and edit simple and variable products on one page:
   name and description, photos you drag to reorder, price and sale price with the
   discount shown, variations created in one click from options like Size or Colour(
   each with its price, stock and photo), stock, shipping, downloadable files, categories
   and tags, and a live preview of the product card in your shop.
 * **Customers**: every customer including guests, with orders, total spent, average
   order and segments (new, returning, top spenders, to win back).
 * **Discounts**: every coupon with its value, scope, end date, usage and status,
   plus what discounts brought in over 30 days.
 * **Settings**: edit your store right here: address, where you sell, currency and
   price format, language and time zone, stock alerts and reviews, payment methods,
   shipping zones and options, taxes, checkout and customer accounts, email sender
   and which emails are sent. Everything is saved in the WooCommerce options, and
   the detailed WooCommerce screens stay one click away.
 * **Notifications**: payments, orders to fulfill, stock alerts, new customers and
   plugin updates.

#### Vacation mode

Going away? Turn on **vacation mode** in Settings, enter your first and last day,
and a banner tells customers you are on vacation and when their orders will ship,
at the top of every page of your site. It appears and disappears on its own on the
dates you chose, and the page caches of the main caching plugins are cleared at 
the right moment. The home screen reminds you it is on, with an “I am back” button.

#### Variation swatches

Customers pick a **color, a picture or a size with one click** instead of a dropdown,
on every variable product. Choose how each option is shown (dropdown, buttons, colors
or images), give every value its color or picture in Settings  Variation swatches,
straight from the product editor, or on the WooCommerce attribute screens. Round,
rounded or square swatches in three sizes; out of stock choices crossed out, faded
or hidden; the chosen value next to the option name; the name on hover; keyboard
friendly. Options created on a single product can have swatches too.

The product editor also sets **several photos per variation** (WooCommerce 11.1 
or later), shown on the product page when that variation is chosen.

#### Sell more, built in

 * **Free shipping bar**: “Add €12 more to get free shipping” in the cart, at checkout
   and in the mini cart, with the threshold read from your shipping zones. It updates
   live, block cart included.
 * **Announcement bar**: a message and a link at the top of every page.
 * **Back in stock alerts**: customers leave their email on out of stock products
   and variations, and get a WooCommerce email when stock comes back. Unsubscribe
   link and privacy tools included.
 * **Review requests**: an email X days after the order status of your choice, with
   the products to review. One request per order, never for products already reviewed.
 * **Better discount codes**: a start and an end down to the minute, and a link 
   that applies the code without typing (?coupon=CODE), perfect for newsletters.

#### Search everything, from anywhere

Press **Ctrl K** (or **⌘K** on a Mac) to open the command palette: jump to any screen,
create a product, a discount or an order, or find an order by number, a product 
by name or SKU, or a customer by email.

#### Nothing is replaced, nothing is lost

Orders and simple or variable products open in the simplified pages; the WooCommerce
editors stay one click away (“Advanced editor”), other product types keep opening
there, and the simplified pages can be turned off in Settings. Settings pages remain
the WooCommerce screens you know, restyled to match the store admin (cards, full-
width layout, settings grouped into sections with their title on the left), so everything
other plugins add to them keeps working. Full-screen editors (block editor, Site
Editor) keep their own interface.

Anyone can switch back to the classic WordPress admin from the account menu, and
deactivating the plugin restores the admin exactly as it was. The first time the
new admin opens, a short welcome explains where things are and offers to keep the
classic admin instead.

If a plugin screen ever looks wrong inside the new shell, add `?pnsa-safe=1` to 
its address to display it with the classic admin, just for that page.

#### Light and dark

A light and a dark theme, switchable per user. Fonts and icons are bundled with 
the plugin: no request to any third-party service.

#### Works with Plugnect Analytics

With Plugnect Analytics for WooCommerce installed (shown as Pluginect Analytics 
in the menu), Analytics and Campaigns open its reports and the home screen adds 
visits and the conversion rate. Without it, they open the WooCommerce reports.

#### Pro

**Plugnect Store Admin Pro** makes the admin fully yours:

 * your colors, logo and name, also on the WordPress login page;
 * the menu in the order you want, sections renamed or hidden, shortcuts to any 
   screen or plugin;
 * a different menu for each role, with hidden screens blocked, so you hand a client
   or a team member only the screens they need;
 * CSV export of orders and customers, following the current tab, segment and search;
 * an **email center**: branded HTML templates (modern, classic, minimal or your
   own HTML), the subject, title and text of every WooCommerce email edited with
   a live preview, and test sends;
 * numbered **invoices and packing slips**, printed or saved as PDF from the order
   list, one order or fifty at a time, with an optional invoice link in the customer’s
   email, plus a live designer for their look: four layouts, your logo, colors and
   fonts, table style, paper size, which details appear, custom titles, a thank-
   you message and a “Paid” stamp;
 * **parcel tracking**: tracking numbers with a link for 95+ carriers worldwide,
   the carrier recognized from the number, bulk shipping and CSV import, an “Order
   shipped” email, tracking in My Account, and a REST API for label software, Zapier
   or Make;
 * **selling tools**: free shipping bar texts, colors, product pages and site banner;
   an announcement bar with colors, pages, dates, rotating messages and a countdown;
   back in stock alerts with consent, waiting list, CSV export and team alerts; 
   clickable stars and a reminder in review requests;
 * **swatches everywhere**: swatches on shop and category pages that switch the 
   product photo and open the product with the choice selected, two-color swatches,
   a larger picture in the tooltip, and a different display for a single product;
 * **order limits**: minimum and maximum order amount and number of items, minimum,
   maximum and pack size per product, and nothing is limited until you fill a field;
 * **smarter discounts**: applied automatically, on some days or hours only, for
   first orders, logged-in or returning customers, and shown on product pages;
 * a complete **vacation mode**: your own message and colors, the pages where it
   shows, a popup, an announcement a few days before you leave, orders paused or
   prices hidden while you are away, and a note in order emails;
 * a **sales report by email**, every day, week or month, for the whole team;
 * an **activity log**: who changed which order, price, discount or setting, and
   when.

## Installation

 1. Install and activate WooCommerce.
 2. Install and activate Plugnect Store Admin from **Plugins  Add New**.
 3. You land on the new home screen. Administrators and shop managers get the new admin;
    other roles keep the classic one.

## FAQ

### Can I try it before installing?

Yes. The [live demo](https://demo-store-admin.pluginect.com/demo/) opens a full 
store, already filled with orders, products and customers, so you can click through
every screen. No sign-up, nothing to install.

### Can I go back to the normal WordPress admin?

Yes, at any time: open the account menu (top right) and choose **Switch to classic
WordPress admin**. Each person chooses for themselves. To get the store admin back,
open **Store** in the classic WordPress menu and click **Switch to the store admin**.

### Who sees the new admin?

By default, administrators and shop managers. You can limit it to administrators
in **Settings  Store admin**. Editors, authors and customers always keep the classic
WordPress admin.

### Where did my other plugins go?

Under **Apps** in the menu. Every plugin menu that the store admin does not organize
itself is listed there automatically, with its sub-pages.

### Does it change my data?

No. It reads your orders, products and customers through WooCommerce, and the only
actions it offers (changing an order status, editing a price or stock, turning a
payment method on or off) are the same ones WooCommerce performs.

### Is it compatible with HPOS?

Yes, with both High-Performance Order Storage and the legacy order storage.

### A screen from another plugin looks broken. What can I do?

Add `pnsa-safe=1` to the address of that page (for example `admin.php?page=some-
plugin&pnsa-safe=1`): it opens with the classic WordPress admin, for that page only.
To turn the store admin off for the whole site without deactivating it, add `define('
PNSA_DISABLE', true );` to `wp-config.php`. Please tell us which plugin it was, 
so we can fix it.

### What happens when I delete the plugin?

Deactivating it keeps your settings. Deleting it from the Plugins screen also removes
its settings, each user’s preferences and its cached data. Your store data (orders,
products, customers) is never touched.

### Does it load anything from external servers?

No. Fonts (Inter and Manrope, SIL Open Font License) and icons (Lucide, ISC License)
are bundled.

## Changelog

#### 1.2.4

 * Security: every form is sanitized field by field as soon as it is received, and
   no raw request data is passed to the plugin’s own hooks.
 * Security: the link that opens an item in the classic WooCommerce editor now carries
   a nonce, checked with the user capability before anything is remembered.
 * Security: screen parameters read from the address (tab, filter, search, page)
   all go through one documented, sanitized helper.
 * Fix: the first fill of the notifications feed now happens on the first admin 
   screen instead of during activation, so it never depends on WooCommerce being
   loaded at that moment.

#### 1.2.3

 * Security: the back in stock form now carries a nonce, refreshed by a small REST
   route so it keeps working on cached pages. Requests without a valid nonce are
   refused.
 * Security: the coupon schedule and the attribute swatch type check the nonce and
   the user capability before saving, instead of relying on WooCommerce having done
   it.
 * Security: every screen escapes its output at the point of output, with no exemption
   left in the code.
 * Changed: the “Store” menu now sits after WooCommerce and Products instead of 
   near the top of the admin menu.
 * Changed: the coupon panel style sheet is enqueued instead of printed inline.

#### 1.2.2

 * Fix: side-by-side settings fields (order limits, review requests, address…) stay
   aligned when a label is longer than its neighbour, and short fields keep their
   label on one line.
 * Fix: on LiteSpeed Cache screens, its dark mode button no longer overlaps the 
   account menu, its dark style sheet no longer fights the store admin theme, and
   its dashboard gets the same margins as other screens.
 * Fix: notices and feature tooltips from other plugins (Elementor…) no longer widen
   the page on phones.
 * Fix (Pro): choosing “Standard” corners in Settings  Appearance no longer triggers
   the Hostinger firewall (Monarx blocks any request containing “radius=default”;
   the value is now “standard”, saved settings are converted).
 * New: `pnsa_compat_dequeue_styles` filter.

#### 1.2.1

 * Fix: the address of every style sheet and script now changes whenever the file
   changes, so browsers load corrected files right after an update instead of keeping
   a cached copy for a week.
 * Fix (Pro): live previews of the appearance, emails and invoices send at most 
   one request per second, after a pause, and nothing when the settings did not 
   change. Some hosting firewalls (Monarx on Hostinger) blocked the rapid requests
   sent while dragging a color picker, then the save itself.
 * Improved: the swatch editor in the product editor shows value names in full.

#### 1.2.0

 * New: variation swatches (Settings  Variation swatches): colors, pictures or buttons
   instead of dropdowns on product pages, set per store option, per value, from 
   the product editor or on the WooCommerce attribute screens; out of stock choices
   crossed out, faded or hidden.
 * New: several photos per variation in the product editor (WooCommerce 11.1 or 
   later).
 * New (Pro): swatches on shop and category pages with photo switching, two-color
   swatches, pictures in tooltips and a per-product display.
 * New: `pnsa_swatch_type`, `pnsa_swatch_item`, `pnsa_swatch_term_controls`, `pnsa_swatch_pro_features`
   and `pnsa_product_editor_variation_before_save` hooks.
 * Improved: tables become cards on phones; aligned stock and price fields.
 * Changed: the plugin is now named Plugnect Store Admin for WooCommerce (folder
   and text domain `plugnect-store-admin-for-woocommerce`); settings are unchanged.
   Its “Visit plugin site” link opens the Store Admin page.
 * New: Marketing settings, with the free shipping bar, announcement bar, back in
   stock alerts (“Back in stock” email) and review requests (“Review request” email).
 * New: discount codes get a start and end time, and a link that applies them (?
   coupon=CODE); the Discounts list shows scheduled codes and copies their link.
 * New (Pro): order limits, automatic and conditional discounts, and Pro options
   for every Marketing feature.
 * New: vacation mode (Settings  Vacation mode): a banner at the top of every page
   during your vacation, with your dates, shown and removed automatically; page 
   caches are cleared when it starts and ends.
 * New (Pro): custom vacation message and colors, pages, popup, advance announcement,
   paused orders (classic and block checkout), hidden prices, and a note in order
   emails.
 * New: `pnsa_vacation_phase`, `pnsa_vacation_banner`, `pnsa_vacation_switch_times`,`
   pnsa_purge_page_cache`, `pnsa_storefront_bars`, `pnsa_announcement_bar`, `pnsa_free_shipping_threshold`,`
   pnsa_free_shipping_bar_texts`, `pnsa_stock_alert_show_form`, `pnsa_stock_alert_validate`,`
   pnsa_stock_alert_added`, `pnsa_review_request_order`, `pnsa_review_request_products`,`
   pnsa_review_request_sent`, `pnsa_coupon_panel`, `pnsa_settings_groups`, `pnsa_settings_before_section`,`
   pnsa_settings_after_section`, `pnsa_vacation_settings_cards`, `pnsa_vacation_preview`
   and `pnsa_vacation_saved` hooks.
 * New: store settings are editable directly in Settings: address, countries, currency
   and price format with a live preview, language and time zone, stock and reviews,
   shipping options, taxes, checkout and accounts, email sender. Payment methods
   and emails turn on and off with a switch.
 * New: WooCommerce and WordPress settings screens are reorganized into sections(
   title and description on the left, fields in a card on the right), with a breadcrumb
   and a proper title.
 * New: every screen uses the full width of the window.
 * Improved: WordPress and WooCommerce buttons, fields, tabs, tables, notices and
   the order and product pages now match the store admin, in the light and dark 
   themes. The WooCommerce header bar and footer credits are gone.
 * Improved: the Settings menu is grouped (Store, Communication, Interface, System)
   and the Emails tab of the menu opens the in-shell email settings.
 * New: a simplified order page, with a progress bar, items and totals, a timeline
   of notes and customer messages, the customer’s history, in-place address editing,
   and the next step as a single button. The WooCommerce order editor stays available
   as the advanced editor.
 * New: a simplified product editor for simple and variable products, with photos
   you drag to reorder, sale price with discount, one-click variations from options,
   per-variation price, stock, SKU and photo, stock and shipping, downloadable files,
   categories and tags, and a live shop preview.
 * New (Pro): parcel tracking, with automatic carrier detection in the ship dialog,
   bulk shipping and CSV import, “Order shipped” email, tracking in My Account, `
   pnsap/v1` REST API and `pnsap_shipments` field on WooCommerce orders.
 * New: “Simplified order and product pages” setting (Settings  Store admin), on
   by default.
 * New: `pnsa_simplified_editors`, `pnsa_product_editor_types`, `pnsa_order_is_shipped`,`
   pnsa_order_timeline`, `pnsa_order_view_actions`, `pnsa_order_view_main`, `pnsa_order_view_sidebar`,`
   pnsa_order_view_shipping`, `pnsa_order_shipping_cell`, `pnsa_order_preview_shipping`,`
   pnsa_product_editor_main`, `pnsa_product_editor_sidebar`, `pnsa_product_editor_before_save`
   and `pnsa_product_editor_saved` hooks.
 * New: `pnsa_screens`, `pnsa_settings_cards`, `pnsa_native_heading`, `pnsa_native_forms_screen`,`
   pnsa_orders_bulk_buttons`, `pnsa_orders_bulk_custom`, `pnsa_order_row_menu`, `
   pnsa_order_preview_actions` and `pnsa_store_settings_saved` hooks for developers.

#### 1.1.0

 * New: order quick view. Click an order in the list to see the customer, items,
   totals and addresses in a side panel, and change its status from there. Ctrl-
   click or ⌘-click still opens the full order.
 * New: a one-time welcome screen that explains the new menu and search, and offers
   to keep the classic admin.
 * New: safe mode, with `?pnsa-safe=1` on any admin page, or the `PNSA_DISABLE` 
   constant for the whole site.
 * New: `pnsa_page_actions` and `pnsa_allow_classic_admin` filters for developers.
 * Improved: dates use the short format of your language (for example “13 sept.”
   in French).
 * Improved: deleting the plugin now removes its settings, user preferences and 
   cached data.
 * Fixed: checked checkboxes were hard to see with some color schemes.

#### 1.0.0

 * First release.
