How to add variation control using the "Add to cart" button in the template?

[Gian]

Hello!

I’m using WP Simple Shopping Cart with the “Add to cart button” in the template (<?php echo print_wp_cart_button_for_product(‘PRODUCT-NAME’, ‘PRODUCT-PRICE’); ?>).

Is there the possibility to add variation control as in the triggered mode ([wp_cart:PRODUCT-NAME:price:PRODUCT-PRICE:var1[VARIATION-NAME|VARIATION1|VARIATION2|VARIATION3]:end])?

Same problem for me.

I’m working with the “Add to cart button” in a template file and I’m searching for a way to add variation control in the php code…

This option is not available… I will add in a function so this can be done.

Any update on this? Would need to use this functionality?

@jkudish, This turned out to be a lot of work so didn’t do anything. If you are using eStore then you should be able to use variation control using PHP function call anyway.

I figured the work around for this would be a shortcode sidebar plugin. I tried 3, and none of them worked. It simply showed the shoppingcart’s shortcode.

Bummer. Not sure why this shortcode wouldn’t work in any of them.

[amin007]

Because the shortcode was created using a filter not a proper wordpess shortcode API (wordpress introduced it later).

Is there any chance you’ll be converting it over to the shortcode API?

[amin007]

Yep, I will be adding a proper shortcode for it in a few days.

The Shortcodes still don’t all work in the sidebar widgets.

I just want to add a simple buy now button, but all I get is the actual code and not the button. But, strangely enougn, this shortcode works:

[wp_eStore_buy_now_fancy id=1]

It’s not what I need, but it works for now.

What I want to use is:

[wp_eStore_buy_now:product_id:1:end]

Any suggestions or solutions?

Oh, I’m using the latest update for the paid plugin and I also have eStore-Extra-shortcodes plugin installed.

Thanks

I just added the proper shortcode version last night. Get a new build from here:

After the update you will be able to use the following which will give you a Buy Now button only:

[wp_eStore_buy_now id=1]
