Settings<\/strong> on the Plugins screen.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\nInstalling from a downloaded ZIP instead: go to Plugins \u2192 Add New \u2192 Upload Plugin<\/strong>, choose the ZIP file, and click Install Now<\/strong>. Leave the ZIP as it is; there is no need to unzip it.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDoes the shop go offline?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. Products, categories and search stay visible. Only new customer orders are refused.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Does it work with the block cart and checkout?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. While orders are paused the refusal is reported through WooCommerce's Store API, so the block cart and checkout refuse to proceed and show the same message.<\/p><\/dd>\n
What happens to carts already built?<\/h3><\/dt>\nThey stay. The customer can come back when you reopen and finish the order.<\/p><\/dd>\n
What happens to orders already placed?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNothing. Closing the shop does not cancel them, change their status, or stop you fulfilling or refunding them.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Can I use it as vacation mode or holiday mode?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Pause orders until the day you are back, or set one temporary closure with its own message. The shop reopens automatically at the time you give, and products stay visible the whole time.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Can I change the wording?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Write a headline and a message for the cart and checkout, and another pair for the mini-cart. Type {reopen_time} where the day and time orders reopen should go, and it is filled in from your hours in your store's timezone and time format; {reopen_day}, {reopen_date} and {reopen_clock} give the parts. Where no reopening time is known, that sentence is replaced. Bold, italics and links are allowed; anything else is stripped before it reaches the storefront.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Can I show the status somewhere else on my site?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. The shortcode [plugincity_store_status]<\/code> prints whether orders are open, or the paused message, wherever you put it.<\/p><\/dd>\nCan a customer get past it with a one-tap payment button?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. While orders are paused, Proceed to checkout and Place order stay on the page but are switched off, so the customer can read why, and the one-tap payment buttons are taken off the cart pages. Whatever route an order takes, it is refused while orders are paused. Express payment flows that pass through WooCommerce checkout are blocked too.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Does it work with High-Performance Order Storage?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Nothing is written to orders, so HPOS shops are fully supported.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Can my hours run past midnight?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNot in a single window. A day's hours have to close after they open, and the screen tells you when they do not. To take orders until the end of the day, finish at 00:00.<\/p><\/dd>\n
What happens if I deactivate WooCommerce?<\/h3><\/dt>\nThe plugin steps aside and shows a notice. It does not fatally error, and your settings are waiting when WooCommerce comes back.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Do I need an account or a licence?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. It is free to use for as long as you like, needs no key, and never contacts PluginCity.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
