WooCommerce Product Support

This extension gives you the ability to provide easy and painless product support via BuddyPress or bbPress.

When you create or edit a product you’re given the option to associate the product with a discussion group (in BuddyPress) or forum (in bbPress). This extension can automatically create a new group or forum and can even create the first discussion topic (based on plugin settings). When a user buys a product they will automatically be granted access to the necessary support forum on order completion.

Requirements

Either BuddyPress with User Groups and Discussion Forums enabled OR bbPress.

Installation

1. Purchase and download the plugin ZIP file from: http://woocommerce.com/
2. Upload the plugin to your ‘plugins’ directory via FTP or within WordPress via Plugins > Add New > Upload.
3. Activate it on the Plugins page in WordPress.
4. NOTE: You will also need to install either bbPress or BuddyPress (with User Groups and Discussion Forums enabled)

Configuration

Under WooCommerce > Settings > Integration > Product Support you can configure the default topic settings.

On this page, you will be able to set the default topic title, as well as the default topic content to use when creating the initial thread for each product forum. Both of the fields will be able to leverage the the name of the product that the forum is being created for, by using the %product_title% placeholder text. We have provided some default text for you out of the box, but you can customize as much as you want.
