Featured Sellers?

[George]

How do you make a seller a “Featured seller” to show in the Visual composer marketplace featured seller module? I have a single seller showing in it, but not sure how to add or remove a seller from it.

Thanks,
George

Anyone experience how the featured seller options work?

Hi George @georgeallen003, no setting required for the widget. If you have some 3-4 sellers, with products, give them some likes and add them to favorites at some users. And they appear automatically in the widget. Means, only sellers with products AND some activity (like and favorites) will appear.
Hope this helps.

Hi @geogeallen003, it’s based on the number of ‘Likes’ and theme will make it show up as ‘Featured Sellers’ automatically.

Hi

We have added “User ID” field where you can enter ID of user you want to show. If its omitted than featured seller will be shown based on number of likes.

Is it available with next update? Or … Please kindly describe more details how it works. Thanks!

Hi @zarko: Any option to remove the “0 sold” from the sellers widget? Its against privacy policy to communicate what others sold. Thx

@bruce7075 “User ID” should be already awailable in this version, “Featured Seller” visual composer widget. If you add use ID to field, that user will show like featured.

@uwethwp at the moment only this “hard” way:

function overwrite_shortcode()
{
// remove plugins shortcode
remove_shortcode(‘featured_seller’);
// attach your own
add_shortcode(‘custom_featured_sellers’, ‘custom_featured_sellers’ );
}
add_action( ‘wp_loaded’, ‘overwrite_shortcode’ );

than you need to copy featured_sellers function from plugin (line #272 vc-elemnts.php), rename it to custom_featured_sellers and remove
this line

I’ll add some hook for easy disable in next update.
