This\ncompanion adds recoverable marketplace-order receipts and quantity-scoped\nshipment tracking. It supports WooCommerce legacy orders and HPOS.<\/p>\n\n<h4>External service<\/h4>\n\n<p>This plugin is the companion for ShipWave Channels, operated by Levy Electric,\nInc. A ShipWave account and a connection from ShipWave to this WooCommerce store\nare required. The plugin does not provide standalone marketplace connections.\nShipWave provides the hosted marketplace connections, synchronization and\nfulfillment workflow. Service subscriptions and shipping charges are separate\nfrom this free plugin; see the current service and pricing page below.\nThis package is prepared for WordPress.org distribution. A WooCommerce\nMarketplace listing is separate from installation and is not required.<\/p>\n\n<p>After the store owner authorizes access, ShipWave reads catalog, stock and order\ndata through WooCommerce's API. Registered WooCommerce webhooks send product and\norder events to ShipWave. Enabled write lanes let ShipWave create marketplace\norder mirrors and save quantity-scoped tracking. Mirrors include the buyer's\nshipping details where the marketplace permits it. Amazon buyer name, street\naddress, phone and email are never written to WooCommerce; those mirrors use\n\"Marketplace Customer\" placeholders with only city, state, postal code and country.\nThe companion authenticates these requests using the store's WooCommerce API\nkey and its existing permissions. It does not execute payment gateways or refunds.<\/p>\n\n<p>Service and pricing: https:\/\/shipwave.app\/pricing\nSetup and support: https:\/\/shipwave.app\/help\/connect-woocommerce-channels\nTerms of service: https:\/\/shipwave.app\/terms\nPrivacy policy: https:\/\/shipwave.app\/privacy<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Install and activate WooCommerce. Enable WooCommerce stock management.<\/li>\n<li>In WordPress, open Plugins &gt; Add New &gt; Upload Plugin. Upload the ShipWave\nChannels ZIP and activate it. After WordPress.org publication, you can also\nsearch for ShipWave Channels under Plugins &gt; Add New and choose Install Now.<\/li>\n<li>In ShipWave, choose Stores &gt; Connect &gt; WooCommerce, enter your public HTTPS\nstore address, and approve the read\/write connection in WooCommerce.<\/li>\n<li>Start read-only sync, resolve SKU\/stock mapping issues, and complete test-store\nacceptance before enabling order mirrors, marketplace stock, or tracking.<\/li>\n<li>Stop any previous connector writers before enabling ShipWave write lanes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>Alternatively, create a WooCommerce read\/write REST API key for an administrator\nand use ShipWave's existing-API-keys option. Keep the key and secret private.\nPublic HTTPS with valid TLS is required. Private networks and redirecting REST\nendpoints are unsupported.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Orders and tracking<\/h4>\n\n<p>Marketplace orders represent sales already paid on the marketplace. The plugin\ndoes not charge a buyer, execute a payment gateway, or issue refunds. Source\nstock is reserved and deducted through WooCommerce's native stock functions.\nUntracked, backordered, virtual or ambiguous shared-stock products are held.\nReplaying an identical reference recovers its receipt. A changed or uncertain\nrequest requires reconciliation instead of automatically creating another order.<\/p>\n\n<p>In a WooCommerce order's ShipWave shipment tracking box, enter a carrier, tracking\nnumber and the exact quantities in one parcel, then use the order Update button.\nEach parcel remains recorded. Partial parcels do not complete the entire order.\nShipWave shipping labels continue to use ShipWave's warehouse and rate policies.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Recovery<\/h4>\n\n<p>If an order or shipment reports reconciliation required, pause the affected write\nlane in ShipWave and inspect its source receipt and ShipWave Sync health. Do not\ndelete plugin claim\/lock options, remove receipt metadata or re-create a reference\nto bypass an uncertain result. Contact support@shipwave.app or consult the setup\nguide above. Disabling the plugin stops companion writes; historical\norders, shipments, stock deductions and claims remain stored.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"is%20a%20woocommerce.com%20account%20required%20to%20connect%20my%20store%3F\"><h3>Is a WooCommerce.com account required to connect my store?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No. Direct installation and store authorization use your own WordPress site.\nA WooCommerce.com vendor account is a separate requirement for publishing this\nplugin in Woo's official Marketplace.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"can%20i%20keep%20another%20connector%20writing%20orders%20or%20inventory%3F\"><h3>Can I keep another connector writing orders or inventory?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Complete a read-only comparison first, then disable the previous connector's\naffected writers before enabling the corresponding ShipWave write lanes.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n<!--section=changelog-->\n<h4>1.0.3<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Uses the distinct shipwave_channels prefix for declarations, form fields and new claims.<\/li>\n<li>Preserves existing order and parcel receipts and honors legacy uncertain claims and locks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0.2<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Prepares WordPress.org readme metadata and service disclosures.<\/li>\n<li>Directory packages use WordPress.org updates; direct-download packages retain\nthe ShipWave Update URI and manual replacement workflow.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0.1<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Amazon order mirrors use non-restricted buyer placeholders instead of being\nrefused.<\/li>\n<li>Declares cart\/checkout block compatibility, sanitizes request input, caches the\nstorage-engine check, and makes the tracking box translatable.<\/li>\n<li>Adds tested-version metadata and an Update URI so unrelated directory plugins\ncannot replace this companion.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>1.0.0<\/h4>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Initial companion with durable order receipts, native atomic stock reservation,\nexact parcel quantities, permission checks, and legacy\/HPOS order support.<\/li>\n<li>Direct download includes service disclosures, plugin metadata and GPL license.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","raw_excerpt":"Connect WooCommerce to ShipWave for marketplace orders, inventory and parcel tracking.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin\/387967","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/plugin"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=387967"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wporg\/v1\/users\/switchlabsdev"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=387967"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"plugin_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_section?post=387967"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_tags?post=387967"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_category?post=387967"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_contributors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_contributors?post=387967"},{"taxonomy":"plugin_business_model","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/plugin_business_model?post=387967"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
