Hi there
I have gone through the setup of putting a CRED form together which creates a new PRODUCT.

I want the user to purchase that particular paroduct they just created as aposed to selecting one manually. is there a work around for this we can implement? I couldnt find anything online at all

many thanks

Hi there

Firstly, please note that you are posting in the Community Forum for users of the free Types plugin. As a Toolset customer you can and should post in the Technical Support forum which we prioritise and where you should receive speedier service.

The CRED form to publish products does just that, it publishes a product, and the user would normally have to view the product then add it to the cart to be able to buy it.

The simplest version of doing this, with minor manual intervention from the user required, is to set your CRED form to display the product once it is published. Then, if the template for displaying products includes an add-to-cart button they can buy that same product without having to select anything.

If that was too much and you don't want them to have to click buy, then you would need to do it programmatically.

You would use the cred_save_data hook to trigger your code once the product had been published (https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_save_data).

WooCommerce has an API that you can use to add a product to the cart using the add_to_cart function (hidden link)

If you are not familiar with PHP you could contact one of the listed contractors to set this up for you: https://toolset.com/contractors/
