    Hello,

    It is an awesome plugin but I miss one feature a lot! We would need a rule based on which shipping method was used.

    Would it be possible to add this?

    Many thanks

    Hi @lpburny,

    Thanks. Actually, the feature should be already there – in “WooCommerce > Settings > Order Status Rules > Rule #1” – there is “Conditions > Shipping methods” option (right below the “Payment gateways” option). Or am I missing something?

    P.S. Please make sure that have the latest version (v2.4.1) of our plugin installed.

    Hey,

    Just purchased the PRO version of it and I am setting it up.

    Just one question:

    What does the time trigger do exactly in a rule? What is this good for? My thought is that if any condition becomes true it will check how much time is set and it will execute the status change after that time interval…?

    But then I don’t really get the WP Cron and Action Scheduler time interval settings..Aren’t them doing the same?

    Thanks

    Hi @lpburny,

    Let me try to explain.

    The plugin is not firing actions when some condition becomes true. Generally, conditions are true or false from the moment the order is created, and are not changing. For example, the “Minimum order amount” – when an order is created, its subtotal either reaches min order amount, or it doesn’t.

    Instead, the plugin uses crons (or the action scheduler). It goes through orders periodically using an interval (e.g. once per hour). And if all rule’s conditions are met (including time trigger) for some order, the order status will be changed according to that rule. This interval (i.e. how often to go through orders, once per hour by default) is what you can change in our “Advanced” section.

    The only exception is when you set the rule’s “Time trigger” to “0” (zero) – in this case, in addition to the cron, the rule will be applied immediately when order status changes.

    Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.

    I’m going to mark this thread as “resolved” for now, hope that’s ok. Please let me know if there are still any questions/issues.
