Product Favorites
Favorites let any logged-in member build a personal wishlist of WooCommerce products. It is a member (buyer) feature, not a vendor one, so it works on any WooCommerce store, with or without a marketplace.
Favoriting a product
Section titled “Favoriting a product”A heart icon appears in two places for logged-in members:
- On the single product page, after the add-to-cart button.
- On shop/archive product cards, inside each card, revealed on hover. This can be turned off with the Show favorite icon on shop setting (
wbpm_fav_icon_enable_shop).
Click the heart to add a product; click again to remove it. The icon reflects the current state (filled = favorited, outline = not). The action is AJAX, so the page does not reload. Adding is idempotent: a fast double-click stores the product once, never a duplicate entry in the list.
The icon colour is configurable with the Favorite icon colour setting (wbpm_fav_icon_color, a hex value, default #d7443e).
Seeing your favorites
Section titled “Seeing your favorites”Open your own profile > Favorite Products. The tab lists every product you have favorited. Members are always shown their own list.
Privacy
Section titled “Privacy”Favorites are owner-only by default. Only the profile owner sees their own Favorite Products list, and:
- The site-wide toggle for the tab (
wbpm_enable_favorite-products) must be on. - A member can hide their own Favorite Products tab (stored in user meta
peepso_wbpm_enable_fav_pro_tab_display).
Sites that genuinely want public wishlists can widen visibility with the wbpm_favorite_products_can_view filter.
Under the hood (for reference)
Section titled “Under the hood (for reference)”- AJAX action:
wbpm_mark_product_fav(logged-in users only; nonce-protected). There is no anonymous handler. - Each member’s favorites are stored in user meta
wbpm_my_fav_products(an array of product IDs). - Each product also tracks who favorited it in post meta
wbpm_fav_product_by_user(an array of user IDs).
Developers: see Hooks and filters.
Migrating favorites from the old add-ons
Section titled “Migrating favorites from the old add-ons”2.0.0 replaces the separate peepso-wcfm-addon and peepso-wc-vendors add-ons. If you are upgrading from one of those, a one-time migration runs automatically on first load: it merges any legacy favorites, stored under the old meta keys pwcfm_favorite_products, pwcv_favorite_products and peepso_favorite_products, into this plugin’s wbpm_my_fav_products, de-duplicating so nothing is doubled.
The migration is idempotent: it is guarded by the wbpm_fav_migrated option and runs only once, so re-saving settings or re-activating the plugin will not re-import or duplicate anything. Members keep their existing favorites with no action required.
