This documentation guides developers through integrating a custom code snippet into a WooCommerce site to add ‘Stock Status’ and ‘Price’ columns to the ‘Top Selling Products
‘ table.
Prerequisites
- Basic knowledge of PHP and WordPress development.
- Access to the site’s
functions.php
file or a suitable plugin for custom code snippets. - An operational WooCommerce environment.
Code Snippet
add_filter( 'sre_top_selling_products_details_table_header', 'sre_top_selling_products_details_table_header', 10, 1 );
function sre_top_selling_products_details_table_header( $th_array ) {
$th_array[] = 'Stock Status'; // Add the stock quantity column
$th_array[] = 'Price'; // Add the price column
return $th_array;
}
add_filter( 'sre_top_selling_products_details_table_content', function( $array, $top_seller, $product_id ) {
if (!is_array($array)) {
return $array;
}
$stock_status = isset($top_seller['extended_info']['stock_status']) ? $top_seller['extended_info']['stock_status'] : 'N/A';
$price = isset($top_seller['extended_info']['price']) ? $top_seller['extended_info']['price'] : 'N/A';
$array[] = $stock_status;
$array[] = $price;
return $array;
}, 10, 3 );
Implementation Guide
- Backup Your Site: Ensure you have a recent backup of your site before modifying any code.
- Add the Code: Paste the provided snippet into the site’s
functions.php
file or a custom plugin for code snippets. - Understanding the Code:
sre_top_selling_products_details_table_header
: This filter modifies the table header by adding ‘Stock Status’ and ‘Price’ columnssre_top_selling_products_details_table_content
: This filter fetches the stock status and price from the extended_info array and appends this information to the new columns in each row of the table.
Troubleshooting
- Data Not Appearing: Ensure that the extended_info array in the $top_seller data includes stock_status and price fields. Confirm that the data is available for each product.
- Code Conflicts: If issues arise after adding the code, remove it to check if the problem persists. Consult a professional if necessary.
Caution
- Modifying code directly can have unintended effects. Consider using a child theme or a custom plugin to avoid losing changes during updates.
- Always test changes on a staging site first.
