I am building a woo-commerce store for a client. He is offering digital download product(music album).
When I was through setting it up I tried it out and it said the purchase went through but I wasn’t given a download option. So I added the thank you template. In the template I added the Checkout Thank you Element, and I saw the download option appear. I don’t know what ot do next–create a Thank you page and embed a "[woo-commerce-thank-you] " short code in a shortcode block in Gutenberg? Then how do I handle the Pay template and receipt template?
I read the directions form Bricks documentation : Checkout (WooCommerce) Checkout (WooCommerce) – Bricks Academy but It is not clear if I have to make dedicated pages named Checkout, Thank you, Pay, Order receipt and them paste the woocommerce short codes into the shortcode block in Gutenberg. There is no info on this!
Not really! I have fumbled my way through and seem to have a working site. I think you need to have certain pages set up (then put the shortcode into that page ONLY), and then it serves the template.
Yep, their documentation is very cumbersome. I also had lots of issues because of that. I managed to solve a lot by trial and error which is not what I thought when starting with Bricks.
They did some edits at least for the Checkout in their docs after I pointed it to them. However, that’s just a drop in the ocean…
I’ll never understand why a good product has such a bad documentation. Is not that are a lot of things undocumented but the complicated parts that they documented are written without care for the reader.
You need to create a separate template for each template type (archive, checkout, cart, thank you, payment, order receipt, etc.) You can either use Bricks’ WooCommerce elements to populate them with content or a shortcode in the Shortcode Bricks element (if WooCommerce has one for that template type). Save it, and that should be it. You don’t mess with pages at all.
Install the Easy Bricks Builder WooCommerce Template Kit v1.1.15 and it will give you a good example of how templates are are set up and the extent of the custom CSS you may need.
) not my template. So what I’m skipping?
