常见问题:
How do I sell flooring by the square meter in WooCommerce?
Keep the price per pack and let the customer enter square meters. Set the product's quantity type to "Square meters / packs" and enter the m² per pack. The product page then converts the area into packs and shows the total price, and the cart shows the delivered area.
How many packs do I need for my room?
Packs = room area ÷ m² per pack, rounded up to the next whole pack. With waste: room area × (1 + waste percentage) ÷ m² per pack, rounded up. The plugin does this live on the product page, including a room calculator for length × width.
How much waste should I add for flooring?
That depends on the product and the laying pattern. Common values are 5 % for straight laying of click vinyl or laminate and 10 to 15 % for diagonal laying, herringbone or tiles. Set a shop default and override it per product where needed.
Can I set a different waste percentage per product?
Yes. Each product has a "Waste (%)" field. Leave it empty to use the shop default, set 0 to hide the waste checkbox for that product. Quick edit and bulk edit change it for many products at once.
Can I use it as a tile calculator?
Yes. Tiles sold per box work like flooring packs: enter the m² per box, the customer enters the wall or floor area and gets the number of boxes, with an optional waste allowance for cuts.
Does it work for skirting boards?
Yes. The customer enters running meters or the room size, the plugin calculates the perimeter and the number of boards. Skirting boards have their own waste default.
How much adhesive do I need per square meter?
The plugin takes the coverage in kg per m² from the product and the container size, then calculates the required weight and the number of containers. If the manufacturer gives a range, enter the upper value so the amount is sufficient.
Does it work with the block cart and checkout?
Yes. The area, length or weight appears in the classic and the block based cart and checkout and is saved with each order line, so it also shows in the order screen and in order emails.
Does it work with variable products?
Yes. Variations can have their own size per unit, for example skirting boards in 2.40 m and 2.70 m lengths.
Why does a product show no calculator?
Either the quantity type is set to Pieces, or the size per unit is missing. For adhesives both coverage and container size are required. The product list has a filter "Size per unit missing" to find these products.
Does the plugin send data to external services?
No. It makes no external requests and stores no personal data.
Is there a Pro version?
No. All features are in this plugin.
Can I add my own quantity type?
Yes, through the filter caqc_types. The waste percentage can be changed with the filter caqc_waste_percent, the stock display with caqc_stock_in_size.
I used custom fields for the calculation before. Can I keep the data?
Map your old meta keys to the plugin's keys with the filter caqc_migration_map. On the next activation the plugin renames them once. Nothing happens without that filter.
What happens to my product data when I delete the plugin?
The plugin removes its own settings only. Sizes, waste values and quantity types stay with the products, so reinstalling restores everything.
更新日志:
- Variable products: the calculator, total price box and add to cart button line up when a product sample plugin adds margins to the variation form.
- Goods sold by the meter: cart, order, emails and invoices show the ordered length, for example "Length: 6.00 m".
- Mobile: the plus and minus buttons of the area field and the quantity field line up.
- The total price box and add to cart button no longer shift sideways when a product sample plugin adds margins to the cart form.
- Waste per product: each product can set its own waste percentage, an empty field uses the shop default.
- Separate waste default for skirting boards and goods sold by the meter (off by default).
- Goods sold by the meter: waste checkbox inside the room calculator.
- Quick edit and bulk edit for the waste percentage.
- The filter
caqc_waste_percentnow also receives the product and the waste group. It no longer applies to adhesive and piece products. - Adhesive: changing the number of containers updates the area to be glued.
- Cart, checkout and order show the total weight for adhesives.
- Layout: calculator, total price box and room calculator look consistent in more themes, also on mobile and on variable products.
- Prefilled fields are selected on tap, so typing replaces the old value.
- The unit stays behind the quantity field when the theme reorders the field (for example Woodmart on variable products).
- Hide the internal marker of saved order lines in the order screen.
- The area or length is now saved with each order line, so it shows in the order screen, in the order emails to the shop and on invoices.
- First public release.
