Hi all,

Ive had an interesting request from the client. They are a herbalist and has lots of customers who he also gives consultations to. He wants the ability to be able recommend certain products to a user. These recommended products should show in the users account section.

Is there a plugin to do this? Or perhaps theres a better way to do this?

Thanks

Hello @dl292,

You might want to take a look into Recommendation Engine.

If you want to try it, we have a 30-day refund policy. If the product doesn’t work the way you need or you think another product would work better, we are more than happy to provide a full refund.

You can read more about our refund policy on our website here: http://woocommerce.com/refund-policy/

Thanks Niels, I did look at your plugin, but I dont think it will do what I need. 🙁 Perhaps when the site gets bigger Ill buy it in the future.

Hello @dl292,

If the suggested extension is too advanced, you could also use the built-in Related Products feature.

I hope this helps!

Interesting Niels, thanks, I didnt know this feature was available in Woocommerce!

Perhaps, using this feature, the client can create a tag for a specific client. Then apply that tag to the relevant products.

But how to display these products in the User’s account? The code would have to:
– get the current User ID that is logged in
– display the products that have been tagged with that User’s ID

What do you think?

The recommended products will not be visible within the user’s account, but only on the product page as seen on https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/related-products-up-sells-and-cross-sells/#section-3:

Yes, it would need some custom SQL to pull out all the products which are tagged with the current logged in user’s id.
Thats the bit which has me stuck. 🙁
