Compatibility with latest WP and WC?

I’m pretty overwhelmed with work at the moment so I don’t have any availability. This plugin does so very little that it’s probably fine, but it’s good praxis on your part to test updates. You can use something like the WP Staging plugin to test in staging: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-staging/

If you test and let me know, I will try to bump the version numbers.

I have tested it and it was not showing up for some reason, However upon asking OCEAN WP I managed for it to show.

If I understand correct, it previously would still show up in ocean wp and not in certain page types. What about individual products and such?

Anyhow, here is where we are at,
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/product-subtitle-for-woocommerce-2/#post-15437750

By not showing up .. do you mean in the admin? Or in the front end? this plugin does not attempt to display the subtitles. With an infinite number is themes all doing things differently, I just couldn’t make that work reliably across all themes, so i don’t try.

There’s some code I wrote here to auto display the subtitle in WooCommerce templates… https://github.com/helgatheviking/kia-subtitle-woocommerce-bridge

But it’s only default WooCommerce templates. Any themes that modify them may not work as well.

And per another user… Ocean is not using woo’s hooks. But this may help:

Hi Helga,

I see what you mean. By showing up I mean it does not show in the front end, back end is all fine. I understand with the infinite number of themes, it gets difficult, at least if you have it going for the stock wordpress or few popular themes as Blocksy and Ocean, I think people can find the rest by going to their theme developers.

I found the code in Github, how does one use it, what are the instructions? What do you do with the php file, is there a zip package that can be simply installed in wordpress?

I can then try it all out and report back with some code received from OCean.

>By showing up I mean it does not show in the front end

This plugin never has added front-end display, so nothing has changed there.

Twenty Twenty and Twenty Twenty One do not offer any hooks that I could use to display the subtitle. I would need to override their templates, which would just get very messy as soon as users needed to also override those templates in their themes.

The code at Github is a plugin. You can download the zip file by going to “Code” > “Download zip” or downloading directly here:
https://github.com/helgatheviking/kia-subtitle-woocommerce-bridge/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

You should be able to install that as a normal WordPress plugin.

If anyone wants to hire me to write compatibility for Ocean or Blocksy I would be open to it.

Thanks Helga, I will give this a try.

The Ocean folks did offer a code to make your plugin show some front end display which can be found here if you want to ever direct Ocean WP users.. I will try it out and report back.

Thanks for your kind efforts. Hope you do keep the plugin alive, nothing else that is alive of this kind that still works.

Is there a link? There is an ocean hook noted here as well:

Thanks, I really like the KIA Bridge Plugin. Adds quite a lot of options.

I have been looking around and putting together small bits of code to trying to customize the size and display of the single products to look the same as the H4 subtitles (any solutions welcome). A solution was posted here by Ocean WP: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/product-subtitle-for-woocommerce-2/#post-15437750

Meanwhile I have just gone around playing with it and I think its what we wanted.

I edited the name of the hooks on your Github file and added it directly to the functions php to test.

The below code can be pasted directly to the functions php and the css goes into customize > custom css option in Ocean WP. Works for us.

// Single product.
function kia_add_subtitle_to_single_product(){
	if( function_exists( 'the_subtitle' ) ) the_subtitle( '<h2 class="subtitle">', '</h2>' );
}
add_action( 'ocean_after_single_product_title', 'kia_add_subtitle_to_single_product', 7 );

// Loop product.
function kia_add_subtitle_to_loop_product(){
	if( function_exists( 'the_subtitle' ) ) the_subtitle( '<h4 class="subtitle">', '</h4>' );
}
add_action( 'ocean_after_archive_product_title', 'kia_add_subtitle_to_loop_product', 20 );

// Shop loop page.
function kia_add_subtitle_to_shop() {
	if( function_exists( 'get_the_subtitle' ) && function_exists( 'is_shop' ) && is_shop() ) {
			
			$subtitle = get_the_subtitle( wc_get_page_id( 'shop' ) );
			
			if( $subtitle ) {
				echo '<h2 class="subtitle">' . $subtitle . '</h2>';
			}
		}
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_archive_description', 'kia_add_subtitle_to_shop' );

// Cart product.
function kia_add_subtitle_to_cart_product( $title, $cart_item ){
    if( function_exists( 'get_the_subtitle' ) && ( $subtitle = get_the_subtitle( $cart_item['product_id'] ) ) ) {
    	$title .= '<br/><span class="subtitle">' . $subtitle . '</span>';
    }
    return $title;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_cart_item_name', 'kia_add_subtitle_to_cart_product', 10, 2 );

// Order product.
function kia_add_subtitle_to_order_product( $title, $order_item ) {
    if( function_exists( 'get_the_subtitle' ) && ( $subtitle = get_the_subtitle( $order_item->get_product_id() ) ) ) {
    	$title .= '<br/><span class="subtitle">' . $subtitle . '</span>';
    }
    return $title;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_order_item_name', 'kia_add_subtitle_to_order_product', 10, 2 ); 

To control how it appears / looks we are using the below

/* KIA Subtitles Customize */
.woocommerce ul.products li.product .woo-entry-inner h4.subtitle, .woocommerce ul.products li.product .woo-entry-inner li.title {
    height: unset; 
	font-family: "Oswald";
	font-size: 11px;
	line-height: 1px;
	color: #322B2B;  
	font-weight: 300;
	letter-spacing: 0px;		 
}
.woocommerce ul.products li.product .woo-entry-inner li.title h2 {
    margin-bottom: 1px;
	
}

@hmarksthespot

I apologize in advance for hijacking the thread.

Did you ever solve this issue related to the Download Attachments plugin ?
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/php-7-4-incompatible/

@nlogica Hi, No we just stopped using that one.

@hmarksthespot
I would like to hear more from you, but i dont want to spoil this thread, since its about KIA.

Can you please reply here? https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/to-anyone-using-php-7-4-or-higher/

Thank you!

@hmarksthespot so is everything working with the latest WP/WC? (the admin parts that are supposed to work anyway ?? )

@helgatheviking

Hello Helga! Hope all is well.

Yes everything seems to be working fine with the latest WP/WC, the admin parts are fine, however you may want to double check if there are any security issues, But other than that its fine! Note, we added some bits of custom css on to make it appear on the Ocean WP.

You may want to stress that on the description for people (like myself) who overlook the bridge, its very nice to have, I think we pasted it on the functions.php.

So far here is the code that makes it appear perfectly under titles in single product and archives… thanks to Ocean WP team, hope it helps someone, you could add it to your list so others can use it.

Hope you maintain and update the plugin, its very handy really! ?? Have a good one!

Thanks @hmarksthespot ! I have updated the tested version. While the instructions and the Woo bridge links are in the FAQ, I brought them up into the main description area to hopefully make them more visible. Have a good weekend.
