    Can not currently be done without a lot more additional programming as well as adding extra database fields to the custom tables to store more values.

    If it’s a feature you really need, you could always hire me, or any other decent programmer, to develop that for you. My plugin has lots of built-in hooks to allow other plugins to add additional functions (such as the several cheap extensions I have for it already).

    Otherwise, I don’t have plans at this time to add any major new features to this plugin. Being able to add custom fields for collection of “more information” to the sheets and sign-up forms is a major amount of extra coding work for both the admin side and the public side, especially if it’s going to be generic enough to be used by many users of this plugin. But, if you have a very specific need for a very specific extra field that would be used for all sign-ups, and doesn’t need to be super generic and flexible, and depending on how and where you want to see that info, it could be a relatively small custom add-on project, or it could still be rather time consuming.

    You can always contact me privately to discuss custom programming projects. I also, on occasion do “subsidized” development (reduced rate) of new features or premium extensions (such as the Calendar View extension), if it’s something that I think other people might be interested in purchasing.

    This is already possible.

    Set the “show_time” argument to “no” in the shortcode to hide start/end times.

    Easiest way to create your shortcodes is by installing the PTA Shortcodes plugin:

    or from WordPress.org:

    Send an email to who? If you are admin and are clearing a volunteer spot, then you already know you cleared it.

    Not sure what you mean by “confirmation link” after they sign up. Do you just mean the confirmation message that says they have been signed up?

    There are also a couple of other alternatives:

    4) Put your long description into the sheet description itself instead of above the shortcode on the page. Then, when you click on sign-up, that description won’t show. After signing up, the confirmation message will then be on top of the long description.

    5) Check the setting for “Redirect Sign Ups to Main Page?” and set up a main volunteer page with the basic shortcode (no arguments), and no other page content, and set that page in the drop down list above that check box option. Now, when somebody clicks on a sign-up link, they will be redirected to that page for the sign-up form.

    I’m certainly open to discussing all possibilities with you, and I have accepted code contributions to the main (free) plugin from other developers in the past. I see this as being more of an add-on extension, though, as opposed to something hard-coded into the main plugin. The main plugin has a LOT of action/filter hooks included already to make it very easy to extend.

    I would suggest contacting me privately when you are ready, and we can discuss via regular email or phone. Use the contact form, or just put stephen in front of my domain name for my email address.

    My plugins do not alter the product descriptions for different users or roles, they only alter the price and whether or not a product is visible. I don’t know of any plugins that allow you to change the product description based on the user, although I believe it would be possible to do via programming.

    If you were to use my plugins, such as the User Role Pricing plugin (in conjunction with the Wholesale Ordering plugin, if you also want those features), you would essentially have to create 3 of each product, and only enter the corresponding custom price for each product, and then use the option to HIDE products without a price. This would be a work around solution, but would do what you want. So, you would have the regular WooCommerce price, and then set up 2 custom prices (wholesale and corporate) with the plugin.
    Then, you create one version of the product that is available to the general public, and use the WooCommerce regular price field for that one.
    Then, create another wholesale version of the product where you only enter a wholesale price (leave other prices blank), and make sure wholesale prices are assigned to customers with the “Wholesale Customer” role (or whatever role you are using for them). If you then set the “Hide” option for products with no prices, then that product will be hidden from everyone except for users that are logged in to a Wholesale Customer role account.
    Same thing for the corporate… create a corporate price field and enter only that price for the third version of the product, and have another user role for your corporate customers.
    If you use User Role Pricing in conjunction with Wholesale Ordering, then the Wholesale Customer role will already be created for you, along with the wholesale price fields. In addition, Wholesale Ordering gives you a “wholesale only” check box for products you can check, and then those products will only be visible/available to wholesale customers (if you set the options appropriately). Then, in User Role Pricing you would just create the Corporate role and then you could also set the corporate versions of the products to “wholesale only” and set it so that Corporate customers are also treated as wholesale customers. Just another way of doing it, although you could do it entirely with just the User Role Pricing plugin and the “hide” option for products that have no price for the current user.

    Otherwise, if you want to do it all with just one product, you could still use User Role Pricing to create different prices for each customer type for one product. At that point, I would suggest in the main product editor that you create a generic description of the product that works for all 3 roles, and then you have a programmer (such as myself) create a small add-on plugin that inserts some custom text somewhere on the product page to describe the mounting option based on the current customer’s role. Wouldn’t be too hard to do or too expensive if all the products are essentially the same, so you could use the same hard-coded text for the mounting options. If the options need to be different (or not shown) for some products, then it would take a bit more time to program some extra custom fields for each product where you could add the text required for each of the customer roles.

    Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, this (like many other feature requests) is most likely not something I will add anytime soon. It is far from a simple feature and would require quite a bit of additional code modification and additional custom database table fields and database functions. Plus, this is a fairly unique request and probably not something most other users of the plugin would need.

    However, couldn’t you just add an additional “waiting list” item to the signup sheet that people could sign-up for after the other positions are filled? Yes, it would require some manual work on your part to notify them (or to sign them up with the admin feature that lets you live search for user and sign them up yourself).

    If an automated solution is something you absolutely need, we can always discuss programming a custom add-on plugin for you, but wouldn’t be quick/easy or cheap.
