supportHi, this is a handy plugin! Some improvements I’d like to see: setting to control the digit length of the generated codes (excluding prefix) setting to restrict use of specific characters, such as I,1,O,0 keep the generating screen within the admin, or as a modal output codes as all caps in CSV download Can you share a PHP snippet to alter the digit length, until a setting is integrated?
Hi @sevans917 , version 1.3 is using minimum necessary random chars. instead of 10 in previous versions. hope it is answer your needs. Also, about the uppercase – it is not safe to try to use it, as the default of woo is lowercase. see this issue .
Hello, i have the same need as @sevans917 that is to decide how long the random automatically generated part of the code is long. in this moment i get some useless results like prefix-a prefix-p prefix-q for three generated coupon, too easy to “crack” It would be great to have a box that asks how long is the random part so i can set the number of characters after the prefix eg. if the lenght it 8 i would get smth like: prefix-jac9s8fj prefix-ajd89cwh prefix-dncao39q i’ve seein your code that you already have the chance to change the number of random chars: coupon-bulker/admin/class-coupon-bulker-admin.php -> line 266: generate_coupon_code($num_of_random_chars, $code_prefix); what is missing is exposing the option to the user.. ..i actually modified by hand the function private function generate_coupon_code($chars, $prefix) forcing $chars = 8;
Not sure what happened here, it seems to be some new issue – maybe with WooCommerce update? – that has reduced the number of random characters to 1. Downloads are also broken, incidentally: Attempts to download new coupons still show the last downloaded/exported group.
Checking the code a little more, the js script for producing num_of_random_chars is producing “0” as in Form Data (in developer console): action: coupon_bulker_ajax_endpoint fn: bulk_coupon_generate coupon_id: 188854 code_prefix: bulker num_of_coupons: 1 num_of_random_chars: 0 An alternative to the hack described above could be in coupon-bulker-admin.js at line 39 or line 48. The alternative I’m currently using (since we just want 8 characters regardless), is in class-coupon-bulker-admin.php, lines 254-5: //$num_of_random_chars = intval( $_POST['num_of_random_chars']); $num_of_random_chars = 8 ;
