Tried posting this on nostr, but no good answers yet. Maybe someone here knows... Yo AI and/or coding / Woocommerce wizards. I'm setting up a website on Woocommerce. Digital products are "completed" automatically on payment. That's fine, that's how it should be. But I also have the "Product Add-Ons for WooCommerce" plugin installed, I need the order status to remain in "Processing" in case an add-on is added to the product. I've tried ChatGPT and Claude.AI (both free versions) for solutions, I've tried exactly 5 iterations of ChatGPT + 2 iterations of Claude "solutions" - none of them work. Obviously I've also tried finding another plugin that would allow for me to change the order status flow, but haven't found anything applicable. Any ideas/solutions? Are paid versions of ChatGPT, Claude AI or anything else any better at coding? DISCLAIMER: I don't know anything about coding myself. A solution / good suggestions get zapped (obviously). 🀠
reply
In case anybody has the same problem/question and you happen to come across this post: I contacted Woo support regarding the question and asked whether Woocommerce Order Status Control plugin would enable me to do what I described. After receiving a useless AI-genereted answer and asking for a human to answer me (and waiting for a day), I actually got a solution from the support:
  1. Install Code Snippets plugin if you haven't: https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/
  2. Copy/paste this code into the .PHP section:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_payment_complete_order_status', 'wc_set_addon_orders_to_processing', 10, 3 ); function wc_set_addon_orders_to_processing( $status, $order_id = 0, $order = false ) { if ( 'completed' !== $status ) { return $status; } if ( ! $order && ! $order_id ) { return $status; } $order = $order ? $order : wc_get_order( $order_id ); if ( $order ) { $items = $order->get_items(); foreach ( $items as $item ) { if ( ! empty( $item->get_meta( '_pao_ids' ) ) ) { $status = 'processing'; break; } } } return $status; }
Seems to be working for me!

Bitcoin’s mystery creator:
Now this one is more widely known but a great fact to start with, especially for anyone new to the world of cryptocurrency. Bitcoin was created in the wake of the last great financial crisis of 2008 by an anonymous person, or group of people, known under the pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto.
Some even believe that the coin was created by four companies – Samsung, Toshiba, Nakamichi, Motorola – in collaboration. Could it be true?

can anyone explain that why I drink water but still feel thirsty, even with a dry lip? could it be due to the change of water/temperature, or could be the AC?
reply
My other used to put a little olive or mustard oil on my umbilical when I was a kid. She says this helps fight out dryness of skin and throat. It works.
reply
oh umbilical? πŸ‘€πŸ‘€πŸ‘€
Olive oil is good for the skin indeed, but I prefer jojoba oil, especially for the face, it absorbs so much faster and better, I don't like the oily feeling; and my skin is actually fine ( so far ) , only dry lips lately.

it's probably the quality of water you drink. Did you try adding some minerals to the water or gray/pink salt? I also concern some time and always bothered and concerned of drinking bottled ans/or tap water... I started looking at what bottled water contained and tried to avoid those with fluoride, also did a test of the local tap water, until I finally installed a water system to purify it.

I guess this is part of the reasons too.
I started looking at what bottled water contained and tried to avoid those with fluoride, also did a test of the local tap water, until I finally installed a water system to purify it.
but then what do you do when traveling?
reply
That's a great question. There are online many bottles that have some filters included, you usually also find it in outdoor stores.
reply
what @DarthCoin use or just getting fresh water from the river?
reply
also fresh water from a river is not enough. If the water come directly from the top,, it doesn't have enough time to get all the minerals. Is good water but is not giving you all you need. But I always use a filter if I drink from a river or a creek.

reply
what filter do you use?
something like this, very efficient, light and cheap.
I use stainless steel light bottles No plastic.
I personally avoid CC products. You probably find good local alternatives, look at the bottles labels and start comparing the components inside. It's also a good way to learn ;)

Religious exemption

The definition of Religious exemption is a legal privilege that exempts members of a certain religion from a β€œlaw”, regulation, or requirement by the state or government.
Note: you can never be exempt from law; otherwise the victim would be without justice.
A legal privilege is not a right, and it certainly is not your right; it is a clause within a contract that someone else controls.
If you do not control said contract, then the privilege, along with the exemption can be withdrawn at any time.
