WCMF marketplace vs WCMP marketplace

HI,

Thanks for get in touch with us.

Well, we have comparison article for all multi-vendor plugins, you ma check this – https://wclovers.com/blog/choose-best-woocommerce-multi-vendor-marketplace-plugin/

1/ Multi-orders: WCMP will soon be multi-order (one order per seller) which will simplify order managment (se WCMP 3.4 béta https://wc-marketplace.com/latest-release/)

– WCFM Marketplace already has all these from very first release!

2/ Shipping: I would be also very interested in understanding how WCFM integrate shipping plugins. Marjketplace need to consider diferente ZIP code (one for each seller) when calculating shipping costs. How do you allow that ? Which plugins, shipping method are integrated ? (exhaustive list would be great. Also brazilian specific shipping if any).

– Please check this for WCFM Vendor shipping – https://wclovers.com/knowledgebase/wcfm-marketplace-store-shipping/

3/ Shipping class: WCMP deal with shipping separating shipping between sellers throuhg shipping-class: has only one shipping-class per seller. How does WCFM deals with shiipping ?

– In WCFM Marketplace vendors are allowed to manage zone and shipping class both.
Please go though that documentation.

4/ Compare:
4a/ What are the function WCFM marketplace will offer me that i don’t have with WCMP + WCFMUltimate ?
4b/ What functions/UI would be missing in WCFM and what are you plans ?
If some function are not available, could please tell us what and why ?

– None of this will be there with WCMp – https://wclovers.com/blog/woocommerce-multivendor-marketplace-wcfm-marketplace/
Chat module will not work.

5/ Migration:
I saw you have a migration tool .. nevertheless, we all know that migrate a production site need to be very very careful: do you offer paid migration/support done by your own dev ?

– Sure, but we do this in FREE. You may contact us here for the purpose – https://wclovers.com/woocommerce-multivendor-customization/

Thank You

Hello, thanks. Studying your plugins.

Some more doubts:

1/ We use:
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-color-and-image-swatches/
https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/adding-product-images-and-galleries/

seem that front end is not compatible with those.
Could please tell me ?

Hi,

Well, this plugin does not require frontend compatibility.

Just install and setup will work for all products.

Thank You

Thanks.

Actually, especially in case of marketplaces, the plugin Swatches (https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-color-and-image-swatches/) would need a frontend interface to exhibit the plugin tab as in conventional wp interface.

It would be necessary to allow seller to specify its own color or image. Otherwhile, the admin would need to create seller specific colors/image for each seller.

Hi,

Well, you have create WC Attributes for this.

Certainly, WCFM dashboard not yet has this option to add/manage attributes.

We have this in plan but will take some time to be there.

Here is a alternate FREE plugin for same purpose – https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/woo-variation-swatches/

Thank You

Not sure that you understood my question:

I am already using the standard wc swatch plugin (https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-color-and-image-swatches/).
As far i understand there is no integration of wc product Swatch tab with wcfm frontend.

In fact we would need a frontend management for atributes-TERMS (not atributes which i much more simple, or even showing the swatch tab on wcfm would be a quite simple and good solution to make this oficial plugin wcfm compatible.
Should be relatively easy as it would not need any specific marketplace integration.

Does the plugin you specify has any kind of integration ?

In

HI,

Vendors are allowed to use defined Attributes.

But WCFM dashboard not yet have any “Attribute Manager”, we have this in plan and will be there soon.

Thank You
