How do I set a limit per category?

Hi Victor,

Sorry for the late reply.

If I understood the task correctly – what you need is “Per product category” option in “WooCommerce > Settings > Maximum Products per User > Limit”. After you enable it, you will be able to set “Limit per user” option for that category (in “Products > Categories > Your category > Edit”) to the total amount you need, e.g. 8.

Hope that helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Victor,

Again, sorry for the late reply. Yes, that’s possible with our “Formula” section. Only instead of product_category you have to use term_id attribute, i.e.:

[alg_wc_mppu limit="8" membership_plan="monthly-membership-8-meal" term_id="123"]
[alg_wc_mppu limit="9" membership_plan="monthly-membership-9-meal" term_id="123"]
[alg_wc_mppu limit="10" membership_plan="monthly-membership-10-meal" term_id="123"] 

Here 123 is term ID of “meal” category. Also, please note that to use term_id attribute in shortcodes, you have to enable “Per product category” checkbox in “Limits” settings section (in “WooCommerce > Settings > Maximum Products per User > Limits”).

Please let me know if there any questions.

Hi Victor,

Actually, it should work exactly as you need, i.e. 8 products in total from that category (not 8 of each product). Would it be possible for me to log in to your site to check what’s going on (my email is [email protected])? Please let me know if sharing an account is not an option, and I will continue solving it remotely.

As for the second part of your question – not sure if I understood it correctly, but please check what order statuses are set to be counted in “WooCommerce > Settings > Maximum Products per User > General > Order statuses”. By default, it’s set to “Completed” orders only.
