On a product that has samples enabled, customers see an \"Order a sample\" button. They can order a free sample, a paid sample, or a mix set by the shop: a set number of free samples first, then paid samples after that.<\/p>\n\n<p>What the free version does:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Set a sample price per product or per variation, free or paid.<\/li>\n<li>Offer a set number of free samples first, then charge for further samples (tiered free-then-paid).<\/li>\n<li>Limit how many samples a customer can order per order and per customer.<\/li>\n<li>Keep sample orders sample-only: a cart that contains samples cannot also contain full-priced products, and a cart with full-priced products cannot add samples.<\/li>\n<li>Sell swatch packs: a pack product made up of sample components.<\/li>\n<li>Issue an automatic, single-use sample-credit coupon when a paid sample order is completed. The coupon is for the sample amount only, is restricted to the sampled products, and expires after 30 days.<\/li>\n<li>Show a sample-to-full conversion report under WooCommerce &gt; Sample Conversion, so you can see which sampled products led to full orders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>The credit is calculated net of tax. If part of a sample order is refunded, the credit is reduced to match what was kept; if the sample is fully refunded, the coupon expires.<\/p>\n\n<p>Please note the limits that apply to this version:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Classic forms only. This plugin works with the classic cart and checkout. It declares the cart and checkout blocks incompatible, and the sample button does not render on a block theme.<\/li>\n<li>Guests cannot redeem an email-restricted sample-credit coupon. A coupon issued for a sample order is tied to the email address used for that order. A guest customer must log in with the sample email address before the coupon can be used at checkout.<\/li>\n<li>This plugin requires WooCommerce 8.8 or later, and has been tested with WooCommerce up to 11.2.1.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Make sure WooCommerce is installed and active.<\/li>\n<li>Upload the <code>tryvertising<\/code> folder to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory, or install it through the WordPress plugins screen.<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.<\/li>\n<li>Go to WooCommerce &gt; Tryvertising to set the default sample button label and other defaults.<\/li>\n<li>Edit a product and enable samples for it: set the sample price, how many free samples are included, and the per-order and per-customer limits. For a swatch pack, create a pack product and add its sample components.<\/li>\n<li>View results under WooCommerce &gt; Sample Conversion, and manage packs under WooCommerce &gt; Sample Packs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"how%20does%20the%20sample%20credit%20work%3F\"><h3>How does the sample credit work?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>When a paid sample order is completed, the plugin creates a single-use coupon for the amount paid for the sample, restricted to the sampled products. The customer uses that coupon on a later full order of the same product. The coupon expires after 30 days.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"can%20a%20customer%20mix%20samples%20and%20full%20products%20in%20one%20cart%3F\"><h3>Can a customer mix samples and full products in one cart?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No. Sample carts are sample-only. If a cart already contains samples, full-priced products cannot be added, and if a cart already contains full-priced products, samples cannot be added.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"why%20can%27t%20a%20guest%20use%20a%20sample-credit%20coupon%3F\"><h3>Why can't a guest use a sample-credit coupon?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Sample-credit coupons are restricted to the email address used for the sample order. WooCommerce checks that restriction against a logged-in customer. A guest has no email address on file at the cart stage, so the coupon cannot be validated for a guest. Log in with the sample email address, and the coupon can then be used at checkout.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"what%20happens%20if%20a%20sample%20order%20is%20refunded%3F\"><h3>What happens if a sample order is refunded?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>A partial refund reduces the credit to the amount kept. A full refund expires the coupon. The conversion report reflects refunds.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"does%20this%20work%20with%20the%20block%20cart%20and%20checkout%3F\"><h3>Does this work with the block cart and checkout?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No, not in this version. This plugin is classic-forms only and declares the cart and checkout blocks incompatible.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"what%20is%20a%20swatch%20pack%3F\"><h3>What is a swatch pack?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>A pack product whose components are samples of other products.
