Appreciate the help. I’ll wait to see what they say then. I assumed Yoast added that information somewhere.

Does Yoast not add to products when enabled? Sorry if I’m mistaken but I assumed it did considering it’s a SEO plugin. I put the same question into the Woocommerce forum. Right now we are only using the free version but I checked around the premium options but didn’t spot anything that would help my question.

Same. From what I have read is that YIKES sold their plugins to Code Parrot. It appears their SSL certificate ended which is causing our plugin to time out trying to access our updates page. I’ve reached out to Code Parrot and haven’t heard back from them either.

We’ve enjoyed using this plugin for years now and hopefully this is just a hiccup as they transition.

I assumed you wanted to access to our staging site for testing purposes since I clearly posted the URL to the staging site with the original post.

What is the best way to provide log in information and steps to replicate?

That would be correct. For those particular products they would be. So if the global could even hook to a category, tag, etc if would make future updates a breeze.

At least for me I would be able to use it a few different ways. One example I already gave was in regards to chairs we offer. The frame of the chair will be unique to that chair but the seat can be changed from wooden to a cushion. The choices for the wooden seat and cushion seat are the same on all the chairs we offer. Fabric choices come and go so it would be helpful having one area to manage versus managing 300+ unique SKUs to make those changes.

Another example are in regards to tables we offer. Very similar to chairs, the base of the table is unique but the tops can be changed. The table tops options would be interchangeable amongst all the tables we offer. I’m sure there are more examples that I can give but these two come to mind.

That is a bummer. It would be nice to have a feature like this. For example we have different chairs that all feature the same style seat but the backs, legs, etc are different. It would be nice to pull for each all from one area so if we make a change to the seat, it would affect all of them without having to go into each to add or remove any options.

In case anyone wants to know I figured it out. You can display the brand name on checkout and email notifications.

// Display order items product brands (Orders on front end and emails)
add_action( 'woocommerce_order_item_meta_end', 'display_custom_data_in_emails', 10, 4 );
function display_custom_data_in_emails( $item_id, $item, $order, $bool ) {
    // Get the product brands for this item
    $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $item->get_product_id(), 'pwb-brand', array( 'fields' => 'names' ) );

    // Output a coma separated string of product brand names
    echo "<br><small>" . implode(', ', $terms) . "</small>";
}

// Display order items product brands in admin order edit pages
add_action( 'woocommerce_after_order_itemmeta', 'custom_admin_order_itemmeta', 15, 3 );
function custom_admin_order_itemmeta( $item_id, $item, $product ){
    //if( ! is_admin() ) return; // only backend

    // Target order "line items" only to avoid errors
    if( $item->is_type( 'line_item' ) ){
        // Get the product brands for this item
        $terms = wp_get_post_terms( $item->get_product_id(), 'pwb-brand', array( 'fields' => 'names' ) );

        // Output a coma separated string of product brand names
        echo "<br><small>" . implode(', ', $terms) . "</small>";
    }
}

It was as simple as displaying categories and changing it over to display the brand instead.

Checking back in on this. Is there a hook I can have the plugin tie into so each product shows the brand on the order page/checkout/order email?

Thanks for the fast response! I found the settings. Didn’t realize that was added in one of the updates. That should definitely help the problem. Thanks!

Is there anyone out there that can help on this?

There isn’t a fix yet but the author of the theme is aware of the issue that their hooks into the TinyMCE are causing with the latest 4.8 update. I swapped over to the 2017 WP theme to see if it was a theme issue because I noticed the TinyMCE was different on our current theme compared to what it looked like with the 2017 theme on. I tried to add a saved tab and it worked just fine, well, the form comes in starting at half size and you have to resize it but that’s about it. So until they come out with a fix I have that janky fix still on our site.

And no problem on the delay. Stuff happens and I’d figured I’d let you know that our issue has nothing to do with the plugin.

Hi Kevin!

I believe I found our issue. It’s due to our theme. It has some custom formatting being added to the TinyMCE and I didn’t realize that was updated in 4.8 which is why this plugin is being broken.

Well I jerry-rigged it for the time being by re-adding the wpembed plugin to wp-includes and downgraded the plugin to 1.5.14 and everything works like it did before. Obviously if we update WordPress I’ll have to readd the wpembed every time which isn’t something I want to do. Let me know if you guys come up with a fix but in the meantime I got everything to work.
