常见问题
-
Do I need WooCommerce to use this plugin?
-
Yes, WooCommerce is required for automated coupon creation and checkout application. However, you can also place the custom shortcode
[zelmu_student_discount]anywhere on standard WordPress pages. -
How are coupons created and secured?
-
Upon successful collegiate email verification, the plugin dynamically mints a single-use coupon in WooCommerce (
WC_Coupon) with a 24-hour expiration limit, restricted to a single redemption, and applies it to the active cart. -
Can students hoard multiple discount codes?
-
No. ZELMU includes a configurable Frequency Limit Guard (default 30 days) that prevents an individual student from generating multiple discount codes within the window.
-
Does this plugin slow down my store?
-
No. Scripts and styles are packaged locally within the plugin, and DOM operations utilize debounced observers (150ms cooldown) to prevent frame drops or CPU spikes.
