Fluent Forms to WooCommerce Basket

[timchorlton]

Could I get an idea if this is possible and if so, where to find the info to make it happen.

I have a Fluent Form that calculates the price of a rug based on the width, length and cost per square meter. The user can also select a colour.

This gives them a price.

I want to be able to send the product name, colour and dimensions and drop the item in the WooCommerce basket so they can either add more products, or proceed to checkout and calculate their delivery costs and pay.

The help video in Pabbly is about a stripe order being sent to WooCommerce so not very useful in this instance.

Hey @timchorlton

The above use case which you are looking for seems not possible. The automation cannot hold multiple orders to let users pick their products and process them after some time.

So there is no way to place an item in the basket from Fluent to WooCommerce?

Hey @timchorlton

If you want the cart option then, unfortunately, WooCommerce doesn't offer any action event to create a cart or if you want to create an order in WooCommerce then you can use the "WooCommerce: Create Order" action event.

(Watch the second part of the video to create an order in WooCommerce)

So does the WooCommerce 'create order' only create the order in the WooCommerce Dashboard not the Basket (or Cart)?

Yes, exactly. It works for creating order in Dashboard, but not in Basket(or cart).

Do we have any solution that can use WooCommerce payment gateway after Fluent form submitted?
Or
After we create the order how do we make user to pay via WooCommerce??
Thank you for the answer.

Hey @RedBazil

You can need to check the same with Fluent-Form, seems like it could be done internally after the form submission.
