This section dives into the core functionalities of the MSRP (RRP) Pricing for WooCommerce plugin, allowing you to manage and display Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Prices (MSRP) effectively within your WooCommerce store.
What is MSRP?
The plugin clarifies that MSRP (also known as list price, RRP, or SRP) refers to the recommended selling price set by the manufacturer for a product.
Plugin Functionality
MSRP for WooCommerce stores MSRP data as a custom product meta field using the key _alg_msrp. This enables you to manage MSRP information for each product individually.
Enabling the Plugin
To get started, simply activate the plugin within your WordPress dashboard. This unlocks the ability to save and display MSRP alongside your product prices in WooCommerce.
Single Product Page Display Options
The plugin provides granular control over how MSRP is displayed on your product pages
- Display: Choose whether to show, hide, or conditionally display the MSRP based on its value compared to the standard price.
- Position: Select where the MSRP appears relative to the standard price (before, after, or as a replacement).
- Text Format: Apply various formatting options (bold, italic, strikethrough, underline) to customize the visual style of the MSRP.
Savings Calculations
The plugin allows you to showcase potential savings for customers by displaying
- Savings Amount: Displays the absolute difference between MSRP and your selling price. Use the %you_save% placeholder in the “Final Template” section to incorporate this value.
- Savings Percentage: Displays the percentage difference between MSRP and your selling price. Use the %you_save_percent% placeholder for this value.
- Savings Percentage Rounding: Define the desired level of precision for the displayed percentage value.
Final Template
This section allows you to customize the final display format for the MSRP and savings information. You can utilize placeholders like %msrp% (MSRP value), %you_save% (savings amount), %you_save_percent% (savings percentage), and %price% (standard selling price). Additionally, the plugin supports shortcodes for further customization (MSRP for WooCommerce Pro required for editing).
Template for Missing MSRP
A separate template can be defined for situations where no MSRP data is available for a product (MSRP for WooCommerce Pro required for editing). You can also incorporate shortcodes here for advanced customization.
Mirroring Single Page Options
The plugin provides a familiar set of options for managing MSRP display on archive pages
- Display: Decide whether to show, hide, or conditionally display MSRP based on its value compared to the standard price.
- Position: Select where the MSRP appears relative to the standard price (before, after, or as a replacement).
- Text Format: Apply various formatting options (bold, italic, strikethrough, underline) to customize the visual style of the MSRP.
Savings Calculations
Similar to single product pages, you can showcase potential savings on archive pages by displaying
- Savings Amount: Displays the absolute difference between MSRP and your selling price. Use the %you_save% placeholder in the “Final Template” section to incorporate this value.
- Savings Percentage: Displays the percentage difference between MSRP and your selling price. Use the %you_save_percent% placeholder for this value.
- Savings Percentage Rounding: Define the desired level of precision for the displayed percentage value.
Final Template and Missing MSRP Template
Just like with single product pages, the plugin offers
- Final Template: Customize the final display format for MSRP and savings information using placeholders and shortcodes (MSRP for WooCommerce Pro required for editing).
- Template for Missing MSRP: Define a separate template for situations where no MSRP data is available for a product (MSRP for WooCommerce Pro is required for editing). You can also incorporate shortcodes here for advanced customization.
By leveraging these archive display options, you can create a consistent and informative product browsing experience for your customers across your entire WooCommerce store.
