(_Ok, that was a bit sarcastic, born from frustration_) * Here is the solution to this problem, should anyone come across this. * During a major version change, Customizr objects which had been prefixed with** TC_** were changed to be prefixed to **CZR_**. * Making this adjustment corrected the problem. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MailPoet - Newsletters, Email Marketing, and Automation] Sending latest newsletter to new subscribers](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sending-latest-newsletter-to-new-subscribers/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [8 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sending-latest-newsletter-to-new-subscribers/#post-9606912) * > Of course not!

However, I would like to be get the user to simply check a checkbox when creating their account in the woocommerce site. Once their account details validated (clicking a link in an email), I would need to “call” mailpoet in the blog site once the woocommerce has validated the account. * Is this possible ? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] Coupon – for only one specific user](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/coupon-for-only-one-specific-user/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/coupon-for-only-one-specific-user/#post-8190696) * After having done some tests on my dev server (WC version 2.6.0), I can confirm that this does **NOT** work. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] Coupon – for only one specific user](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/coupon-for-only-one-specific-user/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/coupon-for-only-one-specific-user/#post-8189257) * To be clear, I enter the registered email address of the user in question ?

Will keep an eye on things and come back to you if necessary. * For anyone else having this problem, I changed to “force download only” within the settings. I then tested it with the android browser “Dolphin”, the one which complains the most. * Hope this will help others also. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] Downloading Android applications](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/downloading-android-applications/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/downloading-android-applications/#post-7281070) * Will give this a go … * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] Detecting refunded orders](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/detecting-refunded-orders/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [10 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/detecting-refunded-orders/#post-7253683) * Hi Mike, * I am getting them via a WP_Query call, using the following args : ‘post_type’ => ‘shop_order’, ‘posts_per_page’ => -1, ‘post_status’ => ‘completed’, ‘date_query’ => array( … date specifics here … ), ‘order’ => ‘ASC’, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’ * Should I be expanding the post_type to include ‘shop_order_refund’ ? If so, how do I link it to the original order ? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] upgrading is breaking category links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [10 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/#post-7135179) * As is quite often the case when we develop, we are absolutely certain that “new” problems **cannot** be in our code ! Yep, you guessed it, I found the source of the problem. * I had to filter translations to eliminate the # sign before order numbers. Could not see how to do this other wise. So I hooked into “gettext_with_context”. This takes the following parameters : `$translations, $text, $context, $domain` * where `$translations` is the translated text. My bug ? I returned $text (_the original untranslated text_). * My error, sorry to have wasted your time. Perhaps this aspect of putting something before the order number could be a configurable parameter ? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] upgrading is breaking category links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [10 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/#post-7135157) * The strings I am testing are indeed confirmed and have been for quite a while now – they are even in the .po file. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] upgrading is breaking category links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [10 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/#post-7135151) * Followed your instructions – 1. Downloaded .mo stable file 2. renamed to woocommerce-fr_FR.mo 3. Copied into wp-content/languages\plugins 4. Tested = no change 5. Saw that instructions said to put it into wp-content/languages/woocommerce 6. Created this directory and copied .mo into it 7. Tested = no change 8. Stopped and restarted Apache 9. Tested = no change ! * Can’t see what to do now ! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WooCommerce] upgrading is breaking category links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/) * Thread Starter [SimonGiddings](https://wordpress.org/support/users/simongiddings/) * (@simongiddings) * [10 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrading-is-breaking-category-links/#post-7135140) * Ok, granted. However, these are strings which have existed for a long time. I wanted to see where they are referenced in code, without success. * I then went to the translation project and downloaded the latest stable version. This gave me “wp-plugins-woocommerce-stable-fr.po” * When I looked in the languages/plugins directory, I found “woocommerce-admin- fr_FR.po” “woocommerce-fr_FR.po” with the corresponding .mo files. * When I looked at the contents of woocommerce-admin-fr_FR, I found the missing definition : #: includes/admin/class-wc-admin-permalink-settings.php:68 msgctxt“ slug” msgid “product-category” msgstr “categorie-produit” * I then searched in wp-plugins-woocommerce-stable-fr where I found #: includes/ admin/class-wc-admin-permalink-settings.php:68 #: includes/class-wc-post-types. php:86 #: includes/updates/woocommerce-update-2.0.php:46 msgctxt “slug” msgid“ product-category” msgstr “categorie-produit” * So, it would appear that the language files are not the source of the problem. Next, I took a look at the referenced line in class-wc-admin-permalink-settings. php where I found ” placeholder=”” /> * So, where the string to translate is correctly specified, along with the context, wordpress does not find it in the translation file. * Something has definitely been changed in code.
