Is there any whatsapp notification instead of SMS notification?
If no, can I make also SMS notification all bidders when someone bid same list? or specific user roles can I notify with SMS?
And second question: I want to use local SMS plugin and it’s support “metakeys” so is this plugin provide metakeys?
Hi,
1. no, there is no automatic mass notification for all auction participants
2. don’t know what do you mean by meta keys support, plugin uses custom post meta for implementing auction features
regards
Let’me explain “meta key” may be it has different name I do not know.
I’m using local SMS plugin for order tracking notification and only YITH order tracking plugin using order meta keys (eg: ywot_carrier_id or ywot_tracking_code) so I can use SMS text these values (for example: Hello customer, your package has been shipped by {ywot_carrier_id} and you can track with this {ywot_tracking_code} code. ) So I want to use this local SMS plugin instead of Twillio but if I can use these meta values for auction.
I guess you can use those but what you need needs to be custom coded, our solution does not implement that.
I got it that seem it has to be using your SMS plugins then. How about whatsapp, is there any way to implement it? If you need to custom work, we can discuss it.

Have bought several copies of your Simple Auctions … a good product thats worked as expected for last year or more. Today A notification came in from the Google Search Console about an error turning up regarding an item that had been sold a few months back. It shows as “Auction Ended” All the pricing remains in the product information BUT Google says the error is “missing field Price” Seems NOW that the “Auction Ended” shows instead of a price that page will no longer attract others to our auction. How can I get the page to show at least the Reserved price along with Auction Ended without haveing to manually edit ever sold items description field?
Hello, please open ticket here https://wpgenie.org/support/
A critical aspect for me in the auction process is a “shop” / “main” page with a image of the items that are current in auction WITH a timer clock in overlay or present with the item. Is it possible with yours ? can you direct me to an example?
Hello, yes that is possible using a code snippet.
Promise last questions
Any problem with the timer working with Flatsome? Is the code snippet extra?
Hi, works fine with Flatsome theme. Code snippet is copy / paste code to be used in functions.php in child theme like explained here https://wpgenie.org/code-snippets-and-template-customizations-using-child-theme/
So far I have put several days into trying to get something working Its not the $20 for the plugin its the hours spent trying to get it to work is the commitment one mentally makes when buying a plugin This is what I want to achieve,https://bidnow.zag.nz/product-category/main-auctions/ this done with a theme. So will I be able to achieve a similar result ?
Hi, yes it is possible to get page like that with our plugin.
Great I just bought it now you can retire
I will be intouch via support i guess to get info on how to activate the countdown aspect we disscussed Have a good christmas!
hi, i am using dokan multi vendor please let me the compatibility of your auction plugin with dokan
Hello, our plugin supports Dokan via Dokan integration.
means you are referring that i need to have dokan pro version??
Yes, or Dokan Free + Auction module.
If one has it set as a multivendor auction can you set a commsion on the sale price? I have not bought a multivendor option yet “the commision” if relevant to the multivendor plugin would give the ability to charge a commsion hope that makes sense
Hi, yes, that’s one of the main features of the multivendor plugin.
cool
I take it the auctions only pay to one account?
I would love if this could allow each auction to be paid to a different Stripe account so multiple clients could host auctions on my website like Ebay.
Hi, you can use multivendor plugin like Dokan. But there is no option to make payment on different payment gateway (Stripe or any other) account
Bonjour,
J’ai acheté le plugin WooCommerce Simple Auctions – WordPress Auctions
Mais les enchères avec le thème adforest ne s’affichent pas correctement… Voir capture vidéos et photos
https://www.screencast.com/t/kZv1gdYKsoJe vous ai laissé un message sur wpgenie mais on n’arrive pas à écrire dans la section description car ça beug… Donnez moi votre adresse mail pour que je puisse vous envoyer un message
Hi, sorry, but we do not understand france and do not provide support via comments, please write us in english here https://wpgenie.org/support/

Hello, I already run a website and I would like to auction a few of my items once in a while. Can I use the current woocommerce registered products? Also the finished auction product has to have the same SKU/Ref code as the original product that I already sell on the website. So, would I enter into any conflict on woocommerce? Thank you!
Hi, you can change your simple product to auction and once auction ends you can change it back to simple product.
I have not setup Cron job yet but I am receiving bid notification email and auction fail email etc. Is that not?
Hi, you will need to purchase licence and then open ticket here https://wpgenie.org/support/ for support.
I have a question, in the file “class-wc-product-auction.php” there is a function called is_started().
This function does the check to see if an auction has started or not. When it hasn’t, the function updates the post meta like so: update_post_meta( $id, ‘_auction_started’, ‘0’);
It seems this is pretty unnecessary to do each time? Because if for example 100 auctions are scheduled, the cronjob will for example rewrite the database 100 times every 20 seconds. This function is also called within the is_closed() function, which will also write the database again etc. I was wondering if there was a reason it works this way?
Hello, this is needed for sorting and filtering. Since majority of auctions are in started status function will stop on first IF so this is not performance issue.
Also plugin works on big auction sites and performs well from what we observed during its lifetime in production.
Hmm ok, it’s just that recently I’ve started to notice error problems when about 300-500 auctions have been scheduled at the same time and I’m trying to find the issue. So I noticed that function would keep updating the meta field instead of skipping it while it’s already been set.
Function update_metadata which is wrapped by update_post_meta we use does not update value if meta field with same value exists.
See https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/update_metadata/ we do not provide $prev_value value.
Your issues could be due to amount of auction products and your hosting resources.
Ahh you are absolutely right, I see it now! My other question then is, what kind of resources would be advised for generally having 500 auctions running per week and 500 scheduled?
Hi, please contact us via info@wpgenie.org
Hello. I am testing “Woocommerce Simple Auctions” and I have some problems with add-on functions of this site.
Is it necessary to buy a product in order to get basic help? In this case, can I buy any or does it have to be WSA?
Thanks.
Okay. Then I will buy the plugin to help me with these problems.
Is the support only in English?
Hi, yes
But I do not understand how did you obtain plugin for testing without purchasing it.
I explain. We do not buy products without trying them first. It is a regulation of our advertising agency to protect the client.
In this case we were using yith, to configure these auctions, and a colleague suggested us to try WSA v1.2.40 (which he bought 1 year ago with the iBid theme)
Of course we agreed and seeing that it is very complete and will be useful for our project, then we decided to contact you.
You will need to contact iBid support since they provide support for all included plugins.
Is there a way we can make everyone know who won the bid?
Hi, yes, on single auction page winner will be displayed when auction ends.
1) How the function “Ability to verify credit card / payment details before user con mid (via addon)” works. 2) How to take payment of 10% of the user’s bid for the bid in the auction?
Hello,
1. this is separate addon, basically you create simple product which costs say $0.5 and then one purchased and order is completed user gets new role which can place bid
2. plugin does not implement such feature and this is something you would need to implement yourself, easiest way would be using some wallet plugin where you would check if user has enough credits in wallet before one can place bid, not trivial task
I switch to WPMU not and the plugin does not want to install, i do not want it to be multisite but it should be able to activate like your lottery plugin and dokan do.
Hello, you can comment / remove is_multisite() function / check in plugin.
I do not understand the response. Could you be clearer? If there is a way you can make it install on my WPMU only for one website like the lottery i will renew support to have it done.
Hi, for more details you will need to open ticket here https://wpgenie.org/support/
I do not have support, just want to ask you if you can make it install on one site in the WPMU.
Please give a quick answer in order to know what to do. Lottery is installed without no trouble in One site on WPM site so can the same be done for auction. Because i know even if a lot of plugins do not support multisite, the are installed and in use in one site.
Hi, yes, it can be with minimal modifications.
So you want me to purchase support to do it or as i am not the only one facing that issue you gonna put it as an update.
Hi, if you don’t know how to do what I have explained earlier that needs to be done, yes you will need to purchase support and open support ticket.
We don’t want you to purchase anything – but if you need support from us you need to open ticket and for that you need to have active support.
regards
I got you. I already renew support, i will open a support ticket later.
Hi. I really like your plugin. I really want to buy it and install it on my website. But I am using a multisite to be able to create multiple websites with different themes and features. This saves space in the database and file system on the server. Is the plugin multi-site compatible? If not, are you planning to add it?
Hi, no, plugin is not compatible with WPMU. You will need to install it on regular WordPress if you plan to use it.
I am using the dokan marketplace with different options for sellers. Is there really no way to combine this? To be honest, I very much hoped that this function would be available and have already announced it ((
Hello, no, unless you custom code some workaround.
Hello again, is your plugin already compatible with WPMU? Have I read the comments that write that in order to add this setting, it is necessary to contact support? Do I understand correctly that you have added compatibility with WPMU, but without the help of your support service, you will not be able to connect it?
Hello, yes, just in case you purchase it please contact us via support ticket system. However we advise against using it with WPMU.
Hello again. Could you explain why you don’t recommend using it with WPMU?
Hello, because it was not tested properly.
Dear Sir, My concern is that, If fake user submitted maximum price than ganoin user who want to buy it will not be able to submit bid because there does not allow minimum price to submit Bid. For example fake customer submit bid price 20.10 Rs and actual customer want to submit bid 18.00 Rs. but he is not able to submit because there is showing “Your bid for “Maize” is smaller than the current bid. Your bid must be at least ₹20.10” . Could you please let me know how we will allow all users to submit his bid and we can accept (min and max) all rates.
Hello, please open ticket as explained in email.
I just wanted to say a big thank you to Mladen, who helped me sort out an email problem that was due to an error on my side. For some reason I cannot log in to my account, that’s why I’m posting here. Thank you!
Hi, how do I set jQuery countdown to a language other than English?
Hello, please open ticket here https://wpgenie.org/support/
Hi, I like it your plugin and I’m planning to buy it, but. i) There are no translation options for plurals in the translation template. Are you planning to release a translation update for plurals (minutes, seconds, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and so on, anything with multiple meanings)? For example: in En_en 1 year and 2,3,4,5,6,7,31 … years; in RU_ru 1,21,31 Год and 2,3,4,22,33 Года and 5,6,7,11,25 Лет.
ii) also: ii1) you have a section “Auction History”, there is the word “Bid”, in the context of the “Auction History” means the bid as “Value” (noun in the singular). But in the translation file this word is also used for another section. For ex.: in En_en – “Bid”, in Ru_ru “Ставка”. ii2) The word “bid” is also used in the bid section as a call to action to place a bid. For ex.: in En_en – “Bid”, in Ru_ru “Сделать ставку” или “Предложить ставку”.
This is just what I managed to notice in the first minutes of getting to know your creation. Are you planning to release a translation update so you can make a good translation?
Hi, for support you will need to purchase item and open ticket here https://wpgenie.org/support/
Hi, This is not a question of support. This is a pre-sales question that you did not answer. I want to be sure that when I buy the plug-in, you will provide me with a good template to carry out a normal translation into the correct Russian language.
Hi, from what I see you have access to translation file allready so this is not presale question.
No, you misunderstood. I’ve made a lot of purchases on Envato, but I haven’t bought your plugin yet, so I personaly don’t have that file. And there is no point in discussing this topic, since the question is about something else. The question is whether your translation template will provide the correct translation into Russian or other languages. Since many manufacturers are lazy and / or forget to write all the options for multiple values. Okay, I see you are ready for support and I will buy your plugin in the near future, and I hope that you will help set up your template for correct translation. Thank you
