 * [@reelism](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reelism/) Actually it wasn’t meant
   to be mean at all. A review is a representation of a users subjective opinion
   of something … and i decided to rather code my own solution or look for an alternative
   than using this plugin … heres why:
 * Many plugins create very flippantly (don’t know if this is the best word for 
   that) top level admin menu items even though many of those settings would be 
   better placed as sub menu item under settings or even as section inside existing
   settings menu items … Thats absolutely ok if the plugin is very big like for 
   example WooCommerce … but for features as small as adding media categories i 
   don’t expect a top level menu item to be added. That just leads to a total overloaded
   admin and is absolutely uneccesary.
 * I actually dislike this so much that i thought about giving only one star but
   after all the plugin does what its states so that would have been a bit harsh.
 * A 3 stars review means – at least for me – that it does what you would expect,
   nothing good nothing bad … so 2 stars seems reasonable for me in this case.

 * Hey Matthijs,
 * thanks for the information. I can confirm that this is a bug in the plugin most
   likely due to changes in the WooCommerce API. I have a look and try to fix that
   ASAP.

 * _Hey [@bananajoexp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bananajoexp/) sorry for
   broken documentation link. Seems like the doc will not become a reality in the
   near future – so i try to be detailed in this answer._
 * **Installation**
    This plugin is kind of a development framework. It tries to
   deliver a pretty tailored editing experience and not to bloat your backend with
   tons of stuff that you don’t need or that editors can use to break the website…
   for this some initial setup is needed that normally have to be done by an developer.
    1. Install and activate the plugin
    2. Add a module area by using the `[gdymc_area]` shortcode in the post content 
       or better adding the `gdymc_area()` function in your theme. Module areas are
       restricted to posts and terms (posts, pages, attachments, categories, custom
       post types …). It is only possible to create one module area per object (post
       or term).
    3. Create the modules folder `./wp-content/modules/` or use the `gdymc_modules_folder`
       filter to set a different path (for example in you themes folder)
    4. Create some content modules (more on that later)
    5. You can now edit in the frontend of your page (as logged admin or editor role)
 * **Creating a module**
    The core part of GDYMC is that you can build your content
   out of different modules (kinda similar to gutenberg blocks but much easier to
   create but more powerful if it is needed). A content module can be as simple 
   as just a HTML snippet or contain scripts, styles and php code that not just 
   alter the module but also the website itself (wp hooks).
 * To create a module create a index.php inside a new folder inside your modules
   folder … for example `./wp-content/modules/my-module-name/index.php`.
 * Inside this index.php you can work pretty much like in any other theme file. 
   In addition to that you can use editable contents (more on that later).
 * It is also possible to add a functions.php inside you module folder that is loaded
   pretty much the same than the themes functions.php. In that functions.php you
   can enqueue scripts or styles or adjust the website using WordPress hooks.
 * **Editable contents**
    As mentioned earlier GDYMC is kind of a development framework.
   On of the functions delivered are editable contents. Inside your theme (post 
   or term) or module you can use the `contentCreate( $contentKey, $contentType 
   = 'text', $contentOption = null )` function to create different editable contents.
 * **Parameters**
    `$contentKey` Is used to identify the content inside the current
   instance (theme or module).
 * `$contentType`
    To create different contents: text, image, gallery, table
 * `$contentOption`
    Adjust the created content based on the content type
 * **Examples**
 *     ```
       <?php contentCreate( 'headline', 'text' ); ?>
       <?php contentCreate( 'thumb', 'image', '400x300' ); ?>
       <?php contentCreate( 'showcase', 'gallery', 'autoxauto' ); ?>
       <?php contentCreate( 'infos', 'table', '5x3' ); ?>
       ```
   
 * Hope that gives you a starting point. Best regards GDY

 * Also the copy post content button seem to do absolutely nothing when a error 
   is triggered right away. Makes sense because the post content ist empty but why
   is this button then shown anyway …

   similar error as soon as the editor opens. No matter if it is a existing page
   or post or a new one …

 * Have the same problem here. Fun part is that all the buttons that are shown aside
   this message don’t do anything … furthermore it is not possible to get to your
   content anymore. It seems like the new WordPress is highly dangerous in this 
   regard because it is not easily possible to restore these corrupted contents.
 * I’ve installed the classic editor plugin an it works again but it leaves me speechless
   that a modern content management system rejects your contents on first occurence
   of a problem.

 * +1 I have the same problem. Just stick to the defaults and don’t show any icons
   there. Thats just unnecessary fancyness over the top.

 * Ok. So i’ve just released version 1.1 wich allows you to do simply this:
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'wc_gift_packaging_field_hook', 'custom_hook_position' );
   
       function custom_hook_position( $hook ) {
   
           return 'woocommerce_review_order_before_submit';
   
       }
       ```
   
 * I think you need `woocommerce_review_order_before_submit` or `woocommerce_review_order_after_submit`.
