Coupons & Add to Cart by URL Links for WooCommerce registers two shortcodes. One prints WooCommerce notices on pages that would not otherwise show them, and one shows or hides content by language for WPML and Polylang sites. This guide covers both, with the exact tags and attributes as they exist in the plugin.
These are the only two shortcodes the plugin provides. Applying a coupon itself is done through the coupon URL (for example ?alg_apply_coupon=CODE), not through a shortcode.
[alg_wc_url_coupons_print_notices] #
Availability: Pro.
What it does: prints the queued WooCommerce notices at the point where you place it. This is useful when a coupon is applied on a page (such as a custom landing page) where WooCommerce notices are not normally displayed, so the “Coupon code applied successfully” style message would otherwise be missed.
Parameters: none.
Example:
[alg_wc_url_coupons_print_notices]Note: this shortcode prints all available WooCommerce notices on that request, not only coupon notices from this plugin.
[alg_wc_url_coupons_translate] #
Availability: Free.
What it does: shows or hides content depending on the active site language, for stores using WPML or Polylang. Use it to write coupon messages that differ per language.
