Draft Products Shown in SKU Search

  • Hello,

    Great plugin, it works really well.

    There does seem to be an issue where the product search, when searching via SKU, brings up products that are set to Draft. Then when the add to cart button is pressed, it does give a message that the product cannot be added, but does not tell the user which product is causing the error.

    Ideally, the products set to draft or disabled in woocommerce, would not show up in the search in the first place?

    Many Thanks,
    James

    Hi James,

    Thanks for the message! There’s a new version set to come out in about a week that should address all these issues. It’s available now in the pro version, but hasn’t yet been implemented in the free version. Anyway, look for an update in a week or so. ??

    Hi Jeremiah,

    Is there any update on this? On version 2.1.2 of WooCommerce Bulk Order Form Pro we’re having this issue of products set to draft showing up in the search. We’d really like to use this useful plug-in live on our site.

    Looking forward to an update!

    Thanks,

    Adam

    Hi Jeremiah,

    Is there any further update on when the next version of the plug-in will be released to fix the issue?

    Many thanks,

    Adam

    We’ve devised a workaround for this.

    Basically, the problem is that Bulk Order form searches for product variations, and pulls any through that are set to ‘publish’. This is fine until you get a variation which is set to ‘publish’, but is within a product set to ‘draft’.

    Ideally, the plugin should check whether the parent of any product variation (the product) is set to ‘publish’ as well as the variation.

    We’ve got around this by just running a database query to set any product variation to ‘private’ (the value for variations that are not enabled) where the parent is not published. This stops any draft products being searchable.
