I am trying to view the website from the Netherlands. * I just did a quick check of the documentation, and don’t see what I am looking for. I want to be able to show Project Notebooks on separate pages based on category.

I first unchecked Make Discounts and Lists translatable. I then deactivated WCML and all WPML plugins and cleared the cache. I then created a new Discount and List.

The Tax/Vat issue I thought I had seems to be all working as it should. I had been confused on additional tax rates, because I had not seen the additional columns. * Overall it looks really flexible. I have only a few questions/requests — can you believe that! * 1. About Notes to customer, I had expected the notes to be sent with the order after I had changed it to a pending status to allow payment by the customer, but instead they were sent with all of the totals that I was still in the process of editing. * 2. About my previous post (items 5, 6, 7, and 8) about not logged in (guest) and adding information to the RFQ Cart , I just tested this from the back-end with New Order > RFQ. Most of it seems to work, but I have not tested it extensively. * 3. Is the Add Meta intended to be used for variable products? I’m just trying to get an understanding of it’s use, and suspect that is it. I’m also confused about the Custom Fields and how they would be used. * 4. We use WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips (free version). Normally when a customer orders online they receive a copy of their invoice in PDF after checkout. I’m wondering if there is a way to send a PDF Quote after it is changed to a pending status. This is important for us when it comes to RFQs, because usually they will need to go through a purchasing department for approval. I can very well imagine that this is a premium request, but would like to hear your input. * P.S. Although I have been working in WordPress for a while, I’m fairly new to WooCommerce. Please excuse my ignorance if some of the things I am asking about are stupid. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/3/#post-7113457) * I just upgraded to Version 1.5.2, but I can’t see a lot that has changed. Here are a few more notes: 1. Shop and product archive pages should show “Select options” for variable products instead of “Add to Cart” and “Request Quote”. Only on the single product page should it show “Request Quote” after the “Add to Cart”. 2. When entering multiple amounts in the single product page, it always shows up as only one in the RFQ Cart. 3. As mentioned previously, once placed in the RFQ Cart it shows “In RFQ” and only the amount can be modified in the RFQ Cart. To handle multiple variable products it should stay as “Request Quote” for adding other variations (sizes, colors, etc.). 4. “View Your RFQ Cart” really needs to be a shortcode. In our use case scenario we have a “Teams” product archive page that lists only products of the cateogory “Teams” and there is no way for them to view the RFQ Cart. 5. When not logged in and adding information to the RFQ Cart, both the order and the e-mail notification showed “fname” and “lname” instead of First Name and Last Name as entered. 6. There was no option to input the Company Name. It also allowed a country that is not listed in the “Sell to specific countires only”. 7. There should also be a checkbox for “Create an account?” 8. No e-mail notification was received by the user. 9. Woo-RFQ is making all required fields show with a double asterisk — also in the the standard Cart. 10. The “Message” a required field in the RFQ Cart, which I don’t see any reason it should be? 11. In general, I preferred the way I “think” checkout was done earlier with using the standard WooCommerce checkout form and having a payment gateway or hook for “Request Quote”. I also think this would make it more consistent and easier for styling and upgrade compatibility. * P.S. Still no time to test the glitch with Tax/VAT updating. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/2/#post-7113454) * Thanks for the clarity. I also think variable products may have worked in my limited testing on an earlier version. I don’t think I would have gone further if it did not. I can wait a few weeks for the production deadline, and really would like to help in any way that I can to see you go further with this. If you want help with documentation, please let me know. * I’m glad you are open to input. Now that I know that you are probably taking this further, I will continue with more testing. Here are a few notes: * I don’t know if I just had not gone far enough on this before, or if you added more functioinality, but I really like the options, Add line items, Tax, Refund, etc. * I like that I can modify the Tax/VAT, and will use that for B2B customers in Europe. * I thought in a previous version I could edit the cost price. In my view that would make it easier than editing the total when it comes to doing the maths. * This is minor, but maybe it would be more intuitive to put “Save” after each row if space allows. I need to teach a user who is not tech savy and I think this will be confusing. * And this is a total out there request. It would be great if I could just give a cart percentage discount so I did not need to edit every product. In our use case scenario this would be for wholesale, affiliates and bulk ordering for teams, all of which may have different percentage discounts. * When I went through our use case scenario I seem to be having a glitch with Tax/ VAT updating. I’m a bit short on time, but I’ll send you more input on that soon. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/2/#post-7113452) * So does that mean it’s a bug, and not a decision to limit functionality in the free version? I’m asking because I would rather not need to look for other solutions if the aim is to get variable products working sometime soon. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/2/#post-7113447) * I like that it creates the order on the back-end that can be edited. That is what makes the approach better than most others that just send e-mails. You’re on a good track, and I’m impressed that you only started with WP in 2015. What country are you guys located (just curious)? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/2/#post-7113445) * I don’t see anything wrong with going for a Pro version, but personally, I think it’s better to have a strong core with the free version first. For example, item 1. to be able to request a quote for the a product in different variations is a show stopper for us, and probably for many with variable products. * I think the concept of your plugin is good, and you seem to support it well and be active with it. Usually when I invest in premium it is only when core functionality is robust, with a good track record for support, and the premium gives extra’s that will save time/money on upgrades or gives “nice to have”, but not “required”, extra features. I’ve been working with WP since about 2005, and I don’t think I’m in the minority with my approach. * If I need to start all over I will need to take a completely different approach in WooCommerce using other free plugins. Should the shop grow more, the possibility for a premium plugin is much higher, but I need to prove that to the shop owner with required functionality working first. Just my 2 cents as they say. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/2/#post-7113441) * Just updated to 1.4.9. I like the updates for the classes, e.g., fqcart-link. Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NP Quote Request for WooCommerce] Checkout OR Request a quote](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/) * Thread Starter [elarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/elarson/) * (@elarson) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/checkout-or-request-a-quote/page/2/#post-7113440) * Brilliant! Thanks a lot for fixing it. Also, thanks for noticing it is multi- lingual (WPML) and providing the filters. I look forward to having GetText calls working, especially with 5 languages (any idea when, because maybe I will wait)? Just as a heads-up, I may also use this on a site with q-Translate-X and those filters would be nice to have also (see [https://qtranslatexteam.wordpress.com/integration](https://qtranslatexteam.wordpress.com/integration)). * As you probably guessed, I now have a couple more questions/requests: * 1. We need to be able to request a quote for the same product in different variations such as size and colour for bulk orders. Currently once it is requested it shows“ In RFQ” and only the amount can be modified in the RFQ Cart. I would prefer that it stays as “Request Quote”, with the “View Your RFQ Cart” coming after it if something exists in the RFQ Cart. * 2. Any chance that you can give an option for the position of the “View Your RFQ Cart” on a product archive page? I would prefer a choice for top or bottom of the page. Possibly having a shortcode for that would be useful also. * 3. This is related to the previous question 2. Ideally it would be nice to have a displayable page, something like “My RFQs”, that could be used in a menu, widget, etc. As you might have seen, we are also using [YITH WooCommerce Wishlist](https://wordpress.org/plugins/yith-woocommerce-wishlist), and I find that way of displaying easier to style and for logged in customers to have access to it before sending an RFQ from the front-end. There are probably reasons that this may not work, but I thought I would mention it in case it can. * I’m more than happy to send you another login/password if you want to do any testing on the site. Just let me know.
