This guide will walk you through setting up the Wishlist page for your WooCommerce store. The Wishlist page is where your customers can view and manage their saved favorite products.
Automatic Setup
If you’ve just installed the WCBoost – Wishlist plugin, a Wishlist page has been automatically created for you. This page includes the necessary shortcode [wcboost_wishlist]
and is already set as the default Wishlist page in your WooCommerce settings.
To verify your Wishlist page setup:
- Log in to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Wishlist.
- Look for the “Wishlist Page” setting. You should see a page selected here, typically named “Wishlist”.
Manual Setup
If you need to recreate the Wishlist page for any reason, follow these simple steps:
- Create a New Page:
- Go to Pages > Add New in your WordPress dashboard
- Give your page a title (e.g., “My Wishlist”)
- In the page editor, add the following shortcode:
[wcboost_wishlist]
- Publish the page
- Set the Wishlist Page:
- Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Wishlist
- Find the “Wishlist Page” setting
- Select your newly created page from the dropdown menu
- Save changes
That’s it! Your Wishlist page is now set up and ready to use.
Customizing Your Wishlist Page
You have several options to customize your Wishlist page to best suit your store’s needs. Navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Wishlist. In the “Wishlist Page” section, you can:
- Choose the Wishlist page with the “Page” setting.
- Select which columns to display on the Wishlist:
- Product price
- Stock Status
- Quantity
- Added date
- Add to cart
- Enable or disable the social sharing function.
For more visual customizations, go to Appearance > Customize > WooCommerce > Wishlist Page. Here you can:
- Enable or disable showing the Wishlist title.
- Enable or disable showing the Wishlist description.
- Select which columns to display on the Wishlist (similar to WooCommerce Settings).
Feel free to experiment with these settings to create the perfect Wishlist experience for your customers. Remember to save your changes after making adjustments.
You can also add any additional content or styling to your Wishlist page. Just make sure to keep the [wcboost_wishlist]
shortcode where you want the wishlist to appear.
