We are new to L&L and have the following challenge and are wondering if this is possible.
We want to create a widget that shows all bough WooCommerce products in one specific category.
And when you click on a product, it goes to the download that is associated with that product.
(for digital downloads the my orders option on the account page is crap).
Background: we want to create a page that shows the bought pdfs at the top and below that an overview of other ones they can still buy.
Thanks for jumping in here @ghen! Just so you know, that documentation is related to the un-released “Pro” plugin that includes a native WooCommerce integration, which I doubt @nexify is using. The reason that integration is necessary is that some of WooCommerce’s data exists in custom tables, so in order to properly query/filter/test logic related to that data, there needs to be a specific integration.
Luckily, some of the data generated by WooCommerce exists in the standard wp_posts table, so L&L can natively access it just like it would access any other post type. For reference @nexify, here are the names of WooCommerce’s post types and taxonomies that you should be able to loop through and display using the currently released version of L&L.
You’ll likely want to try something like this to start to see what fields are available on your products:
<Loop post_type=product>
<Field all />
</Loop>
From there you could try displaying the specific field you need and filtering your loop based on a particular category using the taxonomy slugs mentioned at the link above.
All that being said, I’m not sure where WooCommerce stores data about the purchases made by a specific user. If that data exists in a custom table, you may not be able to access it easily with L&L until the Pro add-on is released which will include the native WooCommerce integration.
