ਵੇਰਵਾ
Allows a WooCommerce store Administrator or Shop Manager to use the frontend and assign a new order to a registered or new customer, taking advantage of all the frontend functionalities that might not exist on the backend, which can be very useful for phone or email orders.
The order will automatically be assigned to a registered customer if the billing email matches. If no registered user is found, the shop manager can decide to either create a new user or leave the order as if it was inserted by a guest.
Two new fields are added to the billing checkout section, for logged in administrators and shop managers.
Features
- Enter email and phone orders directly on the frontend;
- Create orders for existing users if the email address exists on the customer database;
- Choose either to create a new user or leave the order as if it was inserted by a guest if the email address does not exist on the customer database;
- Compatibility for the WooCommerce block-based Checkout

ਅਕਸਰ ਪੁੱਛੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਸਵਾਲ
-
How to set “Shop as client” to “No” by default?
-
Add this to your (child) theme functions.php file, or use the PRO add-on.
-
How to set “Create user” to “Yes” by default?
-
Add this to your (child) theme functions.php file, or use the PRO add-on.
-
Which user roles have access to the “Shop as client” functionality?
-
Administrators and Shop managers can use “Shop as client” on the checkout.
Add this to your (child) theme functions.php file if you want to allow other user roles to use this functionality. -
I’m giving discounts user or user role-based. Will this work?
-
No. Yes. It’s complicated…
The logged in user is the Administrator or Shop Manager. It’s not possible to integrate with the vast amount of user or user role-based discount plugins when the logged in user is not the customer himself, so any customer roled-based discounts will not be applied.
However, our PRO add-on integrates with the User Switching plugin and sets the Administrator or Shop Manager that switched to the customer account as the order handler upon checkout, thus allowing to benefit from the fact the customer is logged in and still use our plugin functionalities, like the payment request gateway and seller tracking.
