Overriding templates

Templates may be overridden in a (child-) theme. Overriding the templates/widgets/product-widget.php template in your theme
by placing the original file in the following directory: my-child-theme/woocommerce/widgets/product-widget.php.

Product attributes

Brand

WooCommerce does by default not provide a global brand attribute/setting for products. The Package::get_product_brand() method determines
the brand for a certain product. By default, the logic searches for an attribute stored within the product data matching the keyword Brand (or a translated version of it).
One might easily adjust the brand attribute name by using the filter ts_easy_integration_product_brand_attribute_name. E.g.:

`php 

add_filter( ‘ts_easy_integration_product_brand_attribute_name’, function( $attribute_name, $product ) {
// Maybe adjust the $attribute_name based on the WC_Product $product
return $attribute_name;
}, 10, 2 );
`

Additionally the filter ts_easy_integration_product_brand is provided which allows filtering the actual brand per product.

`php 

add_filter( ‘ts_easy_integration_product_brand’, function( $brand, $product ) {
// Maybe adjust the $brand based on the WC_Product $product
return $brand;
}, 10, 2 );
`

GTIN, MPN, SKU

The plugin uses product identifiers, which might not be provided by the Woo core (e.g. GTIN, MPN) for widgets, order exports and the Trustcard.
GTIN and MPN fields are provided through the WooCommerce edit product panel and stored as meta data, using the meta_key_ts_gtin and _ts_mpn.

Similar to the brand attribute, Package::get_product_gtin(), Package::get_product_mpn() and Package::get_product_sku() are used to retrieve the data.
Filters exist to adjust the attributes:

  • ts_easy_integration_product_gtin
  • ts_easy_integration_product_mpn
  • ts_easy_integration_product_sku

Example filter-usage to adjust the GTIN:

`php 

add_filter( ‘ts_easy_integration_product_gtin’, function( $gtin, $product ) {
// Maybe adjust the $gtin based on the WC_Product $product
return $gtin;
}, 10, 2 );
`

Technical Insights

Minimal Requirements

  • WordPress 4.9 or newer
  • WooCommerce 3.9 (newest version recommended)
  • PHP Version 5.6 or newer

Installation

Install this plugin via WP-Admin > Plugins and connect your site via WooCommerce > Settings > Trusted Shops.

Shortcodes

[ts_widget id="{widget_id}" product_identifier="{identifier}"] 

Use this shortcode to embed a specific widget, e.g.: [ts_widget id="wdg-d6dc1e38-d43b-46aa-123e-232441"]. Please mind that
embedding product-specific widgets by passing an identifier (e.g. sku, gtin, mpn) will only work on product-specific pages.

Hooks

All frontend-related hooks, e.g. to output Trustbadge, Trustcard and Widgets are managed in src/Hooks.php. External assets (e.g. the TS widgets script) are lazy-enqueued
via the WordPress script API as soon as a widget is rendered.

For each widget position (e.g. product_title) a custom hooks is placed, e.g. ts_easy_integration_single_product_title_widgets. This way users may easily customize where/when
to output widgets by attaching custom scripts to it or removing the default logic to output the widget.

To render a widget, 2 templates exist:

  1. templates/widgets/product-widget.php is used for product-related widgets.
  2. templates/widgets/service-widget.php is used for service widgets.
