## Description

**Rixden Quote Builder** is a visual quote request system for any WordPress site
selling services, products, or both. Clients browse your catalogue with beautiful
cards, add items to their quote, and submit a detailed request — all without leaving
your page. No more generic contact forms or “request a quote” links that go nowhere.

Built for trades, agencies, caterers, consultants, event planners, rental businesses,
studios, fitness coaches, cleaning services, beauty salons, photographers — any 
business where pricing depends on what the client actually wants.

## FAQ

### Does this require WooCommerce or any other plugin?

No. Rixden Quote Builder is completely standalone. No WooCommerce, no page builder,
no dependencies.

### Can I use this for physical products, not just services?

Yes. The builder works for any priced item — services, products, packages, rental
gear, catering menus, consulting hours, event bookings. Whatever you sell, list 
it as a product.

### What happens if a client refreshes the page mid-quote?

Their selections are preserved in the browser session, so an accidental refresh 
won’t wipe their quote. The quote clears when they close the browser tab.

### How do I add a delivery or shipping fee?

Go to Quote Builder  Settings, scroll down to the Delivery Fee section, enable the
toggle, and enter your flat fee. You can also set a free-delivery threshold so the
fee is waived when the quote subtotal reaches a certain amount. The label is fully
customisable — use “Delivery Fee”, “Shipping”, “Service Fee”, or anything that fits
your business.

### Can I use my own currency?

Yes. Go to Quote Builder  Settings and enter any currency symbol you want.

### How do clients receive confirmation?

Immediately after submitting, they receive a clean HTML email with their full quote
summary, branded with your accent colour and company name.

### Where do quote requests go?

All quote requests appear in the Quote Requests admin tab with full client details,
items, quantities, totals, and a status dropdown so you can track progress.

### Is the shortcode safe to use in Gutenberg / Elementor / Divi / Classic Editor?

Yes. The shortcode works anywhere standard WordPress shortcodes work, including 
Gutenberg shortcode blocks, Classic Editor, and all major page builders.

### Where can I upgrade to Pro?

See the Pro Features tab in the admin dashboard for a full feature list and upgrade
link.
