Maintaining a Streamlined Checkout: Exploring Hide and Redirect Options in Coupons & Add to Cart by URL for WooCommerce
The Coupons & Add to Cart by URL for WooCommerce plugin goes a step further by offering options to manage coupon input fields and customer redirects, creating a cleaner checkout experience.
Here’s a breakdown of these functionalities
Hide Coupon Options
Cart page
- Hide: Activate this option to remove the standard coupon input field from the cart page. This can be helpful when you primarily promote URL-based coupons, eliminating confusion for customers.
Checkout page
- Hide: Similar to the cart page, you can choose to hide the standard coupon input field on the checkout page as well.
Hide condition
- Hide if coupon applied via URL: This setting hides the input field only if a coupon has already been applied through a URL. This prevents customers from accidentally entering a code that might conflict with the URL promotion.
- Always hide: Opt for this if you want to completely remove the standard coupon input field from both the cart and checkout pages.
Redirect Options (Pro Version Only)
Redirect URL
- No redirect: Customers remain on the current page after using a URL coupon.
- Redirect to cart: This automatically redirects users to the cart page after a successful URL coupon application.
- Redirect to checkout: Customers are directly taken to the checkout page for a faster purchase flow.
- Redirect to custom local URL: Define a specific URL on your website to redirect users to after using a URL coupon.
Redirect URL per Coupon (Pro Version Only)
- Enable: This unlocks the ability to set unique redirect URLs for individual coupons within the coupon edit screen. This allows for highly targeted post-purchase actions based on the specific promotion used. (https://wpfactory.com/item/url-coupons-woocommerce/)
Additional Notes
- If you redirect users to a page where WooCommerce notices aren’t displayed, the plugin provides a shortcode [alg_wc_url_coupons_print_notices] to display relevant messages.
- A “Reset Settings” option allows you to easily revert all settings within this section to their defaults.
