    I was wondering if i could set the variables of a smart coupon via PHP.

    For example i have this in my code already:

                $coupon_code = substr($author_email,0,4).'4LUCAS'.random_int( 1000, 9999 ); // OR generate_coupon_code();
            $discount_type = 'fixed_cart'; // type can be 'fixed_cart', 'percent' or 'fixed_product', defaults to 'fixed_cart'
            $coupon_amount = '4000'; // Amount
            $coupon->set_code( $coupon_code );
            $coupon->set_discount_type( $discount_type );
            $coupon->set_amount( $coupon_amount );
            $coupon->set_individual_use( true );
            $coupon->set_usage_limit( 1 );
            $coupon->set_email_restrictions( array( $author_email ) );
            $coupon->set_date_expires( strtotime( '+60 days' ) );
            $coupon->set_free_shipping( false );

    Is there a way i can set other variables, like:

    • Giveaway product
    • Automatically apply
    • Display in checkout/My Account
    • Category of the products needed to be applied
    • And so many other variables that smart coupons give to the woo coupons

    Hi @avagp,

    Thank you for your patience.

    You may add these meta to the coupon

    1. _wt_free_product_ids – The giveaway product IDs can be added as an array.
    2. _wt_make_auto_coupon – Set the value to ‘yes’ to enable auto apply
    3. _wc_make_coupon_available – To display coupon in My account, Cart & Checkout. Set values as array. Applicable values: ‘my_account’, ‘cart’ & ‘checkout’

    The category restriction is provided by WooCommerce. Therefore, you may use the below code to set the category.

    1. $coupon->set_product_categories( [ $category_id1, $category_id2 ] ). Add IDs of the categories on which the coupon should be applied

    thanks.

    so, to understand, should be used like this?

    $coupon->_wc_make_coupon_available

    Hi @avagp,

    No. That is for configuring the default WooCommerce coupon data.

    You may use the following code for reference to update the metadata of the coupon:
    update_post_meta(coupon_id, ‘meta_name’, meta_value);

    For more information on updating the post meta, you may refer to this article: update_post_meta() | Function

    thanks!

    every have worked but

    update_post_meta($coupon_id, '_wc_make_coupon_available', ['my_account','cart','checkout']);

    what it is incorrect in this?

    I figured it out!

    update_post_meta($coupon_id, '_wc_make_coupon_available', 'my_account,cart,checkout');
