VSW Bogo Offer On Category

描述

VSW Bogo Offer On Category lets you run powerful Buy X Get Y Free promotions on your WooCommerce store, configured per product category. No coupon codes, no complex setup — just pick a category, choose a deal type, and the plugin does the rest automatically.

How It Works

  1. Go to the top-level BOGO Offers menu in your WordPress admin sidebar.
  2. Click + Add Rule, select a product category (e.g. ProductCat, ProductCat1).
  3. Choose a deal type — Buy 1 Get 1 Free, Buy 1 Get 2 Free, Buy 2 Get 2 Free, and many more.
  4. Save. The offer is live immediately — no page reload needed.

When a customer adds qualifying products from that category to their cart, the plugin automatically identifies the cheapest items and sets their price to ₹0. The cart, mini-cart sidebar, and checkout all reflect the correct discounted total instantly.

Supported Deal Types

  • Buy 1 Get 1 Free (B1G1) — Classic BOGO
  • Buy 1 Get 2 Free (B1G2)
  • Buy 1 Get 3 Free (B1G3)
  • Buy 2 Get 1 Free (B2G1)
  • Buy 2 Get 2 Free (B2G2)
  • Buy 2 Get 3 Free (B2G3)
  • Buy 3 Get 1 Free (B3G1)
  • Buy 3 Get 2 Free (B3G2)
  • Buy 3 Get 3 Free (B3G3)
  • Buy 4 Get 3 Free (B4G3)
  • Buy 4 Get 4 Free (B4G4)

Key Features

  • Category-based rules — each rule targets one product category independently
  • Auto cheapest detection — the cheapest items in each group are always free
  • set_price(0) engine — free items are truly set to ₹0, so subtotal, mini-cart, and checkout all show the correct total
  • Works in mini-cart sidebar — Hurray! banner and ₹0 price appear in the cart drawer immediately after adding items
  • AJAX-powered — discount updates without page reload when items are added to cart
  • Quantity scaling — 4 items with B1G1 = 2 free; 6 items with B2G2 = 4 free
  • Multiple simultaneous rules — run B1G1 on ProductCat and B2G2 on Bangles at the same time
  • Pause / resume rules — temporarily disable a rule without deleting it
  • “Hurray!” celebration banner — animated red card with confetti shown in cart and mini-cart when discount triggers
  • “Buy X Get Y Free On [Category]” badge — shown under the free item’s name in the cart
  • Free item price display — shows ₹0.00 with strikethrough original price
  • Teaser notice — purple banner tells customers about available offers before they add enough items
  • Variable product support — works with simple and variable products
  • HPOS compatible — WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage ready
  • Top-level admin menu — “BOGO Offers” appears independently in the WordPress sidebar
  • Translation-ready — full .pot file included
  • No coding required

常见问题

Does it work with sale prices?

Yes. The plugin reads the current effective price (get_price()) — which returns the sale price when a product is on sale — not the regular/MRP price. So if a product’s sale price is ₹799, that’s what the discount calculation uses.

Does it work with variable products?

Yes. The plugin correctly identifies the parent product ID for variations when checking category membership, so variable products are fully supported.

What if a product belongs to multiple categories?

The plugin checks each active rule’s category independently. A product in two BOGO-enabled categories participates in both calculations. Each rule’s discount is applied separately.

Can I run different deal types for different categories at the same time?

Absolutely. Create one rule for Product with B1G1 and another for Bangles with B2G2. Both run independently in the same cart session.

What happens with 3 items and a B1G1 rule?

B1G1 has a group size of 2. With 3 items you get 1 complete group (1 free) and 1 leftover item at full price. Only complete groups trigger the deal.

Does it update the mini-cart sidebar total?

Yes. Because the plugin uses set_price(0) on free items (rather than a fee/coupon approach), WooCommerce naturally recalculates the subtotal correctly everywhere — full cart page, mini-cart widget, and checkout order review.

Is the discount compatible with WooCommerce coupons?

Yes. The BOGO discount is applied at the price level. WooCommerce coupons work on top of the already-discounted prices.

Does it support multisite?

Yes. Each site on a multisite network has its own independent set of BOGO rules. The uninstall.php file cleans up data from all sites on deletion.

Can I translate the plugin?

Yes. All strings use __() and esc_html__() with the text domain vsw-bogo-offer-on-category. A .pot file is included in the languages/ folder.

What data does the plugin store?

A single WordPress option: cbogo_rules (an array of rule definitions). No personal data is stored. Deleting the plugin removes all data via uninstall.php.
