Email to Vendor when add Product

[thiemann.k]

Hey Community,

what do i have to do (for example with a snippet) that all sellers get an email when a product in category (cat-id=228) has been added?

Members can submit a “Product Inquiry”. These all come in a single category. I would like to inform the sellers if a new product has been created here.

Best regards!

HI,

– You mean, if Admin add a product in this category then all vendors will be notified?

– Sorry, not getting this clearly.

Thank You

– no…

I have a category where product inquiries come in. if a seller has this product, or can create, then he can respond to it.
Now I would like all Vendors to always receive an email or a notification when a product is added in category “228”.

is that possible?

Thanks

Hi,

Well, vendors are by default notified if any inquiry comes for their products!

Do you want to disable this and only allow notification for this particular category products?

Thank You

no, I do not want to =)

So:

I have a category where users can create “product requests”.
A customer is looking for a product that is not yet available in the shop, this can create its own product (Add User Product)
The user product automatically comes in a specified category (cat-id = “228”)
Now I would like an email / referrals (preferably both) to be sent to all sellers when a new product is created in this category.

HI,

Thanks for the details. I understand your concept.

A customer is looking for a product that is not yet available in the shop, this can create its own product (Add User Product)

– Do you have implemented this yet!

Thank You

hey =)
yes, I have already implemented that.
there are some plugins that implement that … which I like the most is the Add product frontend by NSThemes.

Maybe you can offer something like that in the future? I think that is a good thing.

A customer is looking for a product that is not yet available in the shop, this can create its own product (Add User Product)
YES !
And now, when a customer has create his own product, than all vendors should be an notification/or email (maybe both).
but how does it continue?
a snippet should certainly implement this.
but how?

– Well, that can be implemented easily.

Do you have any idea about this plugin’s coding?

Actually, I want to know, is there any hook after completing the product creating by this form!

Thank You

[thiemann.k]

not yet. is that necessary?

Thanks!

HI,

Yeah, as we have to write custom code to send out emails based on that hook.

Otherwise, we have to edit that plugin, and this is not good at any situation!

Can you please share your site access with me here – https://wclovers.com/woocommerce-multivendor-customization/
I will take a look at this.

Thank You

Hi,

Here is your code for the purpose –

add_action( 'wp_insert_post', function( $post_ID, $post, $update ) {
	global $WCFM;
	if( isset( $_POST["ns-product-name"] ) ) {
		$wcfm_messages = 'New product added to the site - <a href="' . get_permalink( $post_ID ) . '">' . get_the_title( $post_ID ) . '</a>';
		$all_vendors = $WCFM->wcfm_vendor_support->wcfm_get_vendor_list( true, '', '', '', '', false );
		if( !empty( $all_vendors ) ) {
			foreach( $all_vendors as $vendor_id => $all_vendor ) {
				if( $vendor_id ) {
					$WCFM->wcfm_notification->wcfm_send_direct_message( -1, $vendor_id, 1, 0, $wcfm_messages, 'new_product', true );
				}
			}
		}
	}
}, 50, 3 );

Thank You
