This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition

Description

Have Quicker Access to Your WooCommerce Shop Resources – Time Saver!

This small and lightweight plugin just adds a lot WooCommerce related resources to your WordPress Toolbar / Admin Bar.

Also links to all setting/ tab pages of the plugin are added making life for shop administrators/ webmasters a lot easier. So you might just switch from the frontend of your site to ‘Payment Settings’ page or check recent ‘Orders’ etc.

General Features

  • The plugin is primarily intended towards shop managers, site admins and webmasters.
  • All WooCommerce shop settings, products and orders management as well as extensions are hooked in!
  • Supporting all official and most third-party plugins with own settings pages!
  • Access WooCommerce resources from your dashboard with one click – or just search the documentation.
  • 4 action hooks included for hooking custom menu items in — for all main sections plus the resource group section (see Other Notes section here for more info on that).
  • 7 additional icon colors included 🙂 (changeable via filters)
  • Plus 7 filters included to change wording/tooltip and icon of the main item – for more info see Other Notes section here
  • For custom “branding” or special needs a few sections like “Extensions” and “Resource links group” could be hidden from displaying via your active theme/child theme – for more info see Other Notes section here
  • Fully internationalized! Real-life tested and developed with international users in mind!
  • Fully WPML compatible!
  • Fully Multisite compatible, you can also network-enable it if ever needed (per site use is recommended).
  • Developed, tested and fully maintained since the WooCommerce 1.2.x branch up to now! Plugin also supported by WooCommerce main developer!
  • As of this plugin version 2.7.0 or higher: Only WooCommerce v2.1.0 or higher, and legacy branch 2.0.x are supported! So please update your installs!
  • Tested with WordPress branch 3.8 also in debug mode (no stuff there, ok? 🙂 (Note: Plugin should also run with WP 3.6+ but please always update to latest version, ok?!)

Special Features

  • Not only supporting official WooCommerce sites ALSO third-party and user links – so just the whole WooCommerce ecosystem 🙂
  • Link to German language/translation plugin – only displayed when German locales are active (de_DE, de_AT, de_CH, de_LU, gsw)
  • Link to downloadable German language packs – only displayed when German locales are active (de_DE, de_AT, de_CH, de_LU, gsw)
  • Link to Dutch language/translation plugin – only displayed when Dutch locales are active (nl_NL or nl)
  • Link to Spanish language/translation plugin – only displayed when Spanish locales are active (es_ES or es_PE)
  • Link to Czech language/translation plugin – only displayed when Czech locale is active (cs_CZ)
  • NOTE: I would be happy to add more language/locale specific resources and more useful third-party links – just contact me!

Requiremets

  • Technically speaking this plugin runs also without WooCommerce 2.x being active
  • BUT: it really makes no sense to use it without WooCommerce 2.x!
  • WordPress 3.6 or higher, but latest version always recommended!

As the name suggests this plugin is intended towards admins/ webmasters/ shop managers. The new admin bar entries will only be displayed if the current user has the WooCommerce capability of manage_woocommerce (a.k.a. user role “Shop Manager”). (Note: I am open for suggestions here if the default value should maybe changed to a more suitable capability. However, you can now tweak this also yourself using our new filter 🙂

Note: All my plugins are internationalized/ translateable by default. This is very important for all users worldwide. So please contribute your language to the plugin to make it even more useful. For translating I recommend the awesome “Codestyling Localization” plugin and for validating the “Poedit Editor”, which works fine on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Additional Info

Idea Behind / Philosophy: Just a little leightweight plugin for all the WooCommerce shop managers out there to make their daily shop admin life a bit easier. Integration of extensions and third-party plugins & themes was also an important goal. — I’ll try to add even more plugin/theme support if it makes some sense. So stay tuned :).

Tweaking, Branding, Custom Snippets

All the following custom & branding stuff code can also be found as a Gist on Github: https://gist.github.com/deckerweb/2173193 (you can also add your questions/ feedback there 🙂

Add Theme Support for “Order Status” with Counters

Add the following code to your active theme/child theme functions.php file:

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Add Order Status Links */
add_theme_support( 'wcaba-order-status' );

–> Links will appear under “Orders” item as sub-level links

Add Theme Support for All the Frontend “Shop Pages” Links

Add the following code to your active theme/child theme functions.php file:

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Add Shop Pages Links */
add_theme_support( 'wcaba-shop-links' );

–> Links will appear between “Reports” and “Extensions” — also the WordPress capability edit_pages is required – because you’ll want to edit your stuff right away 🙂

Add new custom menu items via theme or other plugins

This is possible since version 2.3 of the plugin! There are 4 action hooks available for hooking custom menu items in — wcaba_custom_main_items for the main section, wcaba_custom_extension_items for the exentensions section, wcaba_custom_theme_items for the theme section plus wcaba_custom_group_items for the resource group section. Here’s an example code:

add_action( 'wcaba_custom_group_items', 'wcaba_custom_additional_group_item' );
/**
 * WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Custom Resource Group Items
 *
 * @global mixed $wp_admin_bar
 */
function wcaba_custom_additional_group_item() {

    global $wp_admin_bar;

    $wp_admin_bar->add_menu( array(
        'parent' => 'ddw-woocommerce-wcgroup',
        'id'     => 'your-unique-item-id',
        'title'  => __( 'Custom Menu Item Name', 'your-textdomain' ),
        'href'   => 'http://deckerweb.de/',
        'meta'   => array( 'title' => __( 'Custom Menu Item Name Tooltip', 'your-textdomain' ) )
    ) );
}

Remove Certain Sections from the Toolbar Items

To achieve this add one, some or all of the following constants to your active theme/child theme’s functions.php file:

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove ALL Items! */
define( 'WCABA_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Extensions Items */
define( 'WCABA_EXTENSIONS_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Themes Items */
define( 'WCABA_THEMES_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Resource Items */
define( 'WCABA_RESOURCES_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove German Language Items */
define( 'WCABA_DE_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Dutch Language Items */
define( 'WCABA_NL_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Spanish Language Items */
define( 'WCABA_ES_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Czech Language Items */
define( 'WCABA_CZ_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove WC Debug Link */
define( 'WCABA_DEBUG_DISPLAY', FALSE );

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove Reports/Statistics */
define( 'WCABA_REPORTS_DISPLAY', FALSE );

–> You can also combine these with conditional if statements to customize this even more, for example:

If you want to disable the display of any “WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition” items for all user roles of “Editor” please use this code:

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove all items for "Editor" user role */
if ( current_user_can( 'editor' ) ) {
    define( 'WCABA_DISPLAY', FALSE );
}

To hide the “Extensions” section only from a user with the user ID of “2”, just use this code:

/** WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Remove all items for user ID 2 */
if ( 2 == get_current_user_id() ) {
    define( 'WCABA_EXTENSIONS_DISPLAY', FALSE );
}

Available Filters to Customize More Stuff

All filters are listed with the filter name in bold and the below additional info, helper functions (if available) as well as usage examples.

wcaba_filter_capability_all

  • Default value: manage_woocommerce (set by “WooCommerce” plugin itself, the main capability for shop managers!)
  • 5 Predefined helper functions:

    • __wcaba_admin_only — returns 'administrator' role — usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_capability_all’, ‘__wcaba_admin_only’ );

    • __wcaba_role_shop_manager — returns 'shop_manager' role — usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_capability_all’, ‘__wcaba_role_shop_manager’ );

    • __wcaba_role_editor — returns 'editor' role — usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_capability_all’, ‘__wcaba_role_editor’ );

    • __wcaba_cap_manage_options — returns 'manage_options' capability — usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_capability_all’, ‘__wcaba_cap_manage_options’ );

    • __wcaba_cap_install_plugins — returns 'install_plugins' capability — usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_capability_all’, ‘__wcaba_cap_install_plugins’ );

  • Another example:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_capability_all’, ‘custom_wcaba_capability_all’ );
    /**

    • WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Change Main Capability
      */
      function custom_wcaba_capability_all() {
      return ‘edit_theme_options’;
      }

–> Changes the capability to edit_theme_options

wcaba_filter_main_icon

  • Default value: WooCommerce cart icon in default color
  • 7 Predefined helper functions for the 6 included colored icons, returning special colored icon values – the helper function always has this name: __wcaba_colornamehere_icon() this results in the following filters ready for usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__wcaba_blue_icon’ );

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__wcaba_grey_icon’ );

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__wcaba_orange_icon’ );

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__wcaba_pink_icon’ );

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__wcaba_red_icon’ );

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__wcaba_teal_icon’ );

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘__bptb_theme_images_icon’ );

–> Where the last helper function returns the icon file (icon-wcaba.png) found in your current theme’s/child theme’s /images/ subfolder

  • Another example:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon’, ‘custom_wcaba_main_icon’ );
    /**

    • WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Change Main Icon
      */
      function custom_wcaba_main_icon() {
      return get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/images/custom-icon.png’;
      }

–> Uses a custom image from your active theme’s /images/ folder

–> Recommended dimensions are 16px x 16px

wcaba_filter_main_icon_display

  • Returning the CSS class for the main item icon
  • Default value: icon-woocommerce (class is: .icon-woocommerce)
  • 1 Predefined helper function:

    • __wcaba_no_icon_display() — usage:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon_display’, ‘__wcaba_no_icon_display’ );

    • This way you can REMOVE the icon!
  • Another example:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_icon_display’, ‘custom_wcaba_main_icon_display_class’ );
    /**

    • WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Change Main Icon CSS Class
      */
      function custom_wcaba_main_icon_display_class() {
      return ‘your-custom-icon-class’;
      }

–> You then have to define CSS rules in your theme/child theme stylesheet for your own custom class .your-custom-icon-class

wcaba_filter_main_item

  • Default value: “WooCommerce”
  • NOTE: Interlinked with “WooCommerce Branding” extension: if you’re changing the Name there, then the new value will be applied ALSO to this filter!
  • Example code for your theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_item’, ‘custom_wcaba_main_item’ );
    /**

    • WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Change Main Item Name
      */
      function custom_wcaba_main_item() {
      return __( ‘Your custom main item’, ‘your-theme-textdomain’ );
      }

wcaba_filter_main_item_tooltip

  • Default value: “WooCommerce Shop Plugin”
  • NOTE: Interlinked with the “WooCommerce Branding” extension: if you’re changing the Name there, then the new value will be applied ALSO to this filter!
  • Example code for your theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter( ‘wcaba_filter_main_item_tooltip’, ‘custom_wcaba_main_item_tooltip’ );
    /**

    • WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition: Change Main Item Name’s Tooltip
      */
      function custom_wcaba_main_item_tooltip() {
      return __( ‘Your custom main item tooltip’, ‘your-theme-textdomain’ );
      }

wcaba_filter_woocommerce_name and wcaba_filter_woocommerce_name_tooltip

  • Default value for both: “WooCommerce”
  • Used for some items within toolbar links to enable proper branding
  • Change things like in the other examples/principles shown above
  • NOTE: Interlinked with the “WooCommerce Branding” extension: if you’re changing the Name there, then it will be applied ALSO to both of these filters!

Final note: If you don’t like to add your customizations to your theme’s functions.php file you can also add them to a functionality plugin or an mu-plugin. This way you can also use this better for Multisite environments. In general you are then more independent from theme changes etc.

All the custom & branding stuff code above can also be found as a Gist on Github: https://gist.github.com/deckerweb/2173193 (you can also add your questions/ feedback there 🙂

Installation

Installation Steps

  1. Installing alternatives:
    • via Admin Dashboard: Go to ‘Plugins > Add New’, search for “WooCommerce Admin Bar Addition”, click “install”
    • OR via direct ZIP upload: Upload the ZIP package via ‘Plugins > Add New > Upload’ in your WP Admin
    • OR via FTP upload: Upload woocommerce-admin-bar-addition folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Look at your toolbar / admin bar and enjoy using the new links there 🙂
  4. Go and manage your shop – good luck with sales 🙂

Requirements

  • Technically speaking this plugin runs also without WooCommerce 2.x being active
  • BUT: it really makes no sense to use it without WooCommerce 2.x!
  • WordPress 3.6 or higher, but latest version always recommended!
  • WooCommerce branch compat: As of this plugin version 2.7.0 or higher: Only WooCommerce v2.1.0 or higher, and legacy branch 2.0.x are supported! So please update your installs!

Note: This plugin has NO settings page because I believe it’s just not neccessarry. All customizing could be done via action hooks, filters, constants and regular WordPress user roles & capabilities (see “Other Notes” section here). As the plugin is indended for a shop manager/ admin/ webmaster use that’s the way to go. This way we can save the overhaul of an options panel/settings page, additional database requests, uninstall routines and such. End result: a lightweight system that just works and saves clicks & time :-).

Multisite install: Yes, it’s fully compatible but have a look in the FAQ section here for more info 🙂

Own translation/wording: For custom and update-secure language files please upload them to /wp-content/languages/wcaba/ (just create this folder) – This enables you to use fully custom translations that won’t be overridden on plugin updates. Also, complete custom English wording is possible with that, just use a language file like wcaba-en_US.mo/.po to achieve that (for creating one see the tools on “Other Notes”).

FAQ

How are new resources being added to the admin bar?

Just drop me a note on my Twitter @deckerweb or via my contact page and I’ll add the link if it is useful for admins/ webmasters and the WooCommerce community.

How could my plugin/extension or theme options page be added to the admin bar links?

This is possible of course and highly welcomed! Just drop me a note on my Twitter @deckerweb or via my contact page and we sort out the details!

Particularly, I need the admin url for the primary options page (like so wp-admin/admin.php?page=foo) – this is relevant for both, plugins and themes. For themes then I also need the correct name defined in the stylesheet (like so Footheme).

There are still some other plugins/ extensions/ add-ons for WooCommerce out there why aren’t these included by default?

Simple answer: The settings of these add-ons are added directly to the various WooCommerce settings pages or tabs and have no anchor to link to. So linking/ adding is just impossible.

How can I customize & brand the admin bar / toolbar items?

All this could be done via our filters and constants. Really lightweight and simple. Just step up the “Other Notes” area here and scroll down to the proper section.

Is this plugin Multisite compatible?

Yes, it is! 🙂 Works really fine in Multisite invironment – here I just recommend to activate on a per site basis so to load things only where and when needed.

In Multisite, could I “network enable” this plugin?

Yes, you could. — However, it doesn’t make much sense. The plugin is intented for a per site use as the admin links refer to the special settings, plugin-support and theme-support for that certain site/blog. So if you have a Multisite install with 5 sites but only 3 would run “WooCommerce” then the other 2 sites will only see support links in the Toolbar / Admin Bar… I guess, you got it? 🙂

Though intended for a per site use it could make some sense in such an edge case: if all of the sites in Multisite use WooCommerce and have lots of WooCommerce-specific plugins in common and use the same theme/framework. This might be the case if you use Multisite for multilingual projects, especially via that awesome plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/multilingual-press/

Why is there no admin settings page to this plugin?

This plugin has NO settings page because I believe it’s just not neccessarry. All customizing could be done via CSS styling, filters, constants and regular WordPress user roles & capabilities. As the plugin is indended for a shop manager/ admin/ webmaster use that’s the way to go. This way we can save the overhaul of an options panel/ settings page, additional database storing & requests, uninstall routines and such. End result: a lightweight system that just works and saves clicks & time :-).

Would give 5 stars, but hasn’t been updated in a while and I’m getting PHP warnings in my log file. They are just warnings, but still shouldn’t be there.

Changelog

2.7.0 (2014-02-02)

  • NEW: Added full WooCommerce 2.1.0 compatibility — by keeping backwards compat for former 2.0.x branch (that will be for a certain time, not always!).
  • UPDATE: Changed main item link (top level directly in Toolbar) to point to Orders page — this is more expected behavior and was requested by some users.
  • UPDATE: Changed Order of main items: now beginning with Orders, then Reports, Products, Coupons, Settings — this way it’s more handy for daily shop maintenance work :).
  • UDAPTE: Updated German translations and also the .pot file for all translators!
  • UPDATE: Updated all user-submitted translations.

2.6.0 (2014-01-23)

  • New features:
    • NEW: Added some new settings and resources links.
    • NEW: Use WordPress 3.8 Dashicons for Toolbar (font) icon! 🙂 (Old image icon approach only for backwards compat!)
    • NEW: Added essential mobile (!) support – that means: on mobile devices the main item link url switches from “settings” to “orders”, plus, only most important sub items are displayed (see this screenshot for example).
    • NEW: Added plugin help tab to WooCommerce settings pages.
  • Extended theme support:
    • NEW: Added support for “Kiosk” and “Gigawatt eCommerce” (both premium, by Obox Design)
  • Extended plugin extension support:
    • NEW: Added language plugin support for “WooCommerce čeština” (free, by Expres-Web.cz)
    • NEW: Added language plugin support for “WooCommerce (es)” (free, by Closemarketing)
    • NEW: Added plugin support for “WooCommerce Pay to Upload” (free, by Patrick Garman)
  • Other stuff & maintenance:
    • UPDATE: Updated/ fixed all settings and resources links.
    • CODE: Code & documentation improvements, partly refactoring.
    • UPDATE: Changed plugin’s textdomain from wcaba to woocommerce-admin-bar-addition to match the plugin’s slug!
    • UDAPTE: Updated German translations and also the .pot file for all translators!
    • NEW: Added new – partly – translations for: French (fr_FR), Italian (it_IT), Danish (da_DK), Spanish (es_ES), Polish (pl_PL). All were user-submitted – thank you!
    • UPDATE: Initiated new three digits versioning, starting with this version.
    • UPDATE: All screenshots; readme.txt file; tested with WordPress branch 3.8.

2.5.0 (2012)

  • private beta, unreleased

2.4.0 (2012-05-18)

  • Maintenance release.
  • NEW: Added plugin extension support for new “WooCommerce Software Add-On” — one more official extension available through WooThemes – see “Other Notes” here for the full listing!
  • NEW: Added plugin extension support for “KISS Metrics for WooCommerce” (free, by Max Rice).
  • NEW: Added sub-level links for the “Integration” settings link, this way I can provide support for third-party extensions here.
  • NEW: Added new constant for customizing, ‘WCABA_REPORTS_DISPLAY’ lets you remove the reports/statistics items – comes in handy if you have lots of shop managers and want to customize your wp-admin more user-specific.
  • UPDATE: Improved behavior of constants for removing sections (or all), so that setting to “FALSE” removes stuff, and setting to “TRUE” displays stuff. (This does not affect existing behavior as explained in the FAQ but introduces ability to use the boolean “TRUE” to bring stuff back in favor of removing the code lines – great for testing purposes etc.)

    • COOL: Plugin can now be branded and customized a lot more!
    • NEW: Added 7 filters to change icon graphic, main item name, main capability and more! For these cases there are now the new built-in filters and helper functions available! (See “Other Notes” here)
    • NEW: Plugin now goes hand in hand with the official “WooCommerce Branding” extension (only if that one is activated, of course) — using custom name, icon and color scheme together! (See “Other Notes” here)
    • NEW: Almost all sections can now be removed for special needs, capabilities etc. — all done via constants in your active theme/child theme — this way you can customize for your staff members if you need some more users with extended or restricted admin bar/toolbar access (See “Other Notes” here)
    • NEW: Via add_theme_support you can now add all WooCommerce order status with counters to the “Orders” item — I decided to make it optional because getting the counts will need a database call, so not every admin will want this! (See “Other Notes” here)
    • NEW: Via add_theme_support you can now add all frontend shop links (all special shop, cart etc. pages) to the main level “Orders” — not every shop manager needs that so I decided to make it optional (See “Other Notes” here)
    • NEW: Added search form for official “WooComerce Docs” site directly to the main level (in Resources section) – note: search results will open in new window/tab!
  • More updates, additions and improvements:
    • NEW: Added new “Tutorials” and “Community Videos” links to “Docs” item.
    • UPDATE: Added proper capability checks to all plugin and theme menu items – the links are now following the same capabilities like in the original plugins/themes. So, if a user don’t sees any left-hand admin menu items the same user won’t see anything of this in the toolbar!
    • UPDATE: Added an interim patch to get somewhat locale-independent reports admin urls – now for ALL locales – getting the slug strings directly from the language files of WooCommerce itself — Therefore the 3 strings (“sales”, “customers”, “stock”) should NOT be translated in my plugin language files! — Waiting for “WooCommerce” to switch to IDs for the tabs slugs…

    • UPDATE: Updated readme.txt file with new and updated documentation/instructions etc.
    • UPDATE: Updated some of the screenshots (more might follow soon…)
