Recesso Manager for WooCommerce

Recesso Manager for WooCommerce helps WooCommerce store owners collect, document and manage online right-of-withdrawal declarations from customers. The plugin adds a public form where customers can identify an order, select eligible products and quantities, confirm the declaration and receive an e-mail receipt with content, date and time of the online transmission. In the WordPress admin area, merchants can review declarations, manage the received/accepted/rejected status, add private notes, resend e-mails, export data, and see linked declarations from the WooCommerce order edit screen. The plugin supports guest checkout, configurable allowed WooCommerce order statuses, optional product/category exclusions, WPML/Polylang translation workflows and WooCommerce HPOS. Recesso Manager for WooCommerce is a technical workflow tool. It does not provide legal advice, does not guarantee legal compliance, does not calculate or trigger refunds, does not create shipping labels, does not manage couriers and does not automatically change WooCommerce order status.

1. Upload the ZIP file from Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
2. Activate the plugin.
3. Create a published WordPress page that contains [rmwc_withdrawal_form].
4. Go to Recesso Manager > Settings.
5. Select the withdrawal form page.
6. Configure merchant notification recipients, privacy text, e-mail texts and data retention.
7. Add the public link where appropriate using [rmwc_withdrawal_link] or enable the optional WooCommerce e-mail/My Account links.

If WooCommerce is not active, the plugin shows an admin notice and does not boot its functional services.

1.6.32

1.6.31

• Removed the Domain Path plugin header after removing bundled translation files for WordPress.org translation handling.

1.6.30

• Removed the former free-form styling editor, related stored option and inline output to avoid any ambiguity with code-insertion tools.
• The plugin now uses only its bundled frontend and admin stylesheets; visual overrides can be handled through the active theme or a child theme.

1.6.28

• Reordered and shortened the readme description area so the WordPress.org parser does not include additional custom sections in the Description length check.

1.6.27

• Shortened the WordPress.org readme description section to avoid Plugin Check truncation warnings.

1.6.26

• Added configurable operational return instructions for the customer after the declaration is submitted.
• Added optional inclusion of the return instructions in the customer receipt e-mail.

• Changed uppercase backend Instructions labels to normal title case.

1.6.13

• Addressed the remaining Plugin Check report by documenting the trusted WordPress-generated page dropdown markup and the uncached MySQL advisory locks used for concurrent quantity protection.

1.6.12

• Completed the second Plugin Check cleanup pass by fixing remaining translator comments, template-rendering false positives, settings escaping, server input sanitization and item input sanitization.

1.6.11

• Removed the bundled third-party anti-spam integration from the WordPress.org-ready build. Anti-spam add-ons can hook into final confirmation validation.
• Removed root Markdown development files from the production ZIP.
