2.Get started
This page is automatically displayed when the plugin is activated. You can nevertheless access it
later on, through the ​WPD ​menu on your dashboard.
From this page, you can:
●
●
●
●

Download the user manual (by clicking on the button ​Docs​)
Watch our tutorial videos on youtube

the tab ​changelog​.
Follow us on our social networks in order to be aware of the latest news and
opportunities related to our products.

3.Configuration
Before you start using the WooCommerce Product Designer plugin, you need to setup some
options first.

3.1.The design page
Let's start by creating the page where products will be customized. Click on menu ​Pages > Add New

Enter your page title and then click on ​publish​. This page is very important and compulsory. Instead
of creating a page, you can choose an existing one and set it as designer page. Make sure you don’t
choose any of the default

3.2.General settings
Click on the menu ​WPD > Settings​ to access the designer settings.
●

Design Page​: This is the page where the product editor is located. Select the page you've
created in the first step of the basic configuration.
Note: ​This page is compulsory. It is where all designs are created. Without this page,
the designer tool can not be displayed.

●

Templates Page​: This is the page where the products templates will be displayed. This
setting can be overwritten per product​.
Note: ​Use the shortcode ​[wpd-templates] where you want the templates to show up
in the templates page.

After setting these pages, you can move to the part creation and start your product creation process.

3.3.Product Parts
The product parts are a simple but really powerful concept of the plugin.
Let's say for example that you're running a business card printing website and you want your clients
to be able to personalize the front and the back view of each card, then you'll have to create two
views (Front and Back). Or you are running a shirt personalization website and want your clients to be
able to personalize the front, back, left sleeve and right sleeve of a shirt, then you'll have to create 4
parts, each corresponding to the view you want your clients to be able to customize.
Note​:​ Every customizable product should at least have one part.
●

Manage the parts

Go to ​WPD > Parts ​to access the parts list
●

Add a new part

To add a new part, just enter the part name (space and special characters are accepted) and click
on the​ ​Add Part​ ​button​.
●

Edit or delete a part

To ​edit ​or ​delete ​a part, just put your mouse pointer right under the part name and you'll see the
additional actions ​Edit ​and ​Delete​.

3.4.Fonts
The fonts interface allows you to define which fonts you would like your clients to use when they're
adding text to their designs. If you don't define any font, the system default fonts will be used.
To manage the fonts, go to ​WPD > Fonts t​ o access the fonts list.
There are 3 ways to add a font:
●

●

●

Google fonts: To add a Google font, just enter the font family name and the style sheet URL
as provided by Google Fonts and then click the Add Font button; or you browse the ​available
google font​ ​in the plugin and pick the desired one out of the list. You can also use this
method for any font provider service which provides a URL for the fonts style sheets.
​Custom web fonts​: ​To add a custom web font, just enter your font family name and then
click the​ ​Add Font ​button. This means that the font has been loaded externally by your theme
or an external plugin. Also, to install custom fonts, you can use this plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/use-any-font/ and then enter the font family name in the plugin
without setting the URL.
Through a TTF file​: ​you import the TTF file of the font by clicking on “add font file” then you
write it’s name in the name field and you click on add font.

NOTICE​: ​The fonts added through a TTF file are not displayed on the designer; they are only used on
the output of SVG files.
Please note that there is no limit to the number fonts you can define. For more details on fonts, please

Note​:​ This does not only work for WooCommerce valid themes but also works for themes which do

5.1.Create a temple category

© Orion - Reproduction in whole or in part of this document or its communication outside Orion is forbidden, unless written
authorization

Templates categories are a very convenient way to organize your templates. You can
have parent and child categories making hierarchical arrangement of your templates
possible. In addition to that, one template can be into more than one category. This gives you
a lot of flexibility to show exactly the templates you want, exactly the way you want them in
widgets, menus or directly in your WordPress theme. This step is not mandatory.

To create new categories, you need to access the ​Templates> Categories ​page first.
On the left side of the page you will see a tab that allows you to create
categories.
● Fill in the category name.
● Fill in Its slug (will be used in the category URLs).
● Click on the ​Add New Category ​button.
●

5.2.Create a template
Before creating a template, make sure you've at least one customizable product. Each
template is linked to a customizable product i.e. saying the templates depend on the product.
To create a template:
·​ ​Click on ​WPD > Templates​. Then click on the ​New template ​button
view your customizable products list (simple products and variations of
variable products).
● Choose the template's base product and then click on the ​Select ​button
to access the template creation screen.
●

A base product is a customizable product which your template extracts the
settings (parts, bounding boxes...) from.
If you want to assign your template to a category, select the desired
templates categories.
● The Text tab option allows you to add formats and features to your
inserted text.
● The Shapes tab option allows you to insert shapes.
● The IMAGES/CLIPARTS tab option allows you to upload images or use
your clipart.
●

Note​: After inserting a shape and selecting the shape inserted, you will
automatically be taken into the IMAGES/CLIPARTS tab to add colors fills
and features to the selected shape. In other to resize the shape, you will
have to select the shape tab option while your inserted shape is selected.
The Locking option gives the ability to lock the movement, resizing or
deletion of any inserted elements in the editor.
● Once the design is complete, click on the ​Publish ​button to save it.
●

5.2.1.Quick designs tips to design a template
If your template is in a layered file (PSD, AI ...) export every layer as images or vectors (SVG) and
then import them in the edition area. All you have to do now is to organize them on the edition area.
© Orion - Reproduction in whole or in part of this document or its communication outside Orion is forbidden, unless written
authorization

But keep in mind that the editable elements (text, shapes...) must be added by the tool so your clients
can edit them to match their needs.
·
Export your design as SVG and then import the single SVG file in WordPress. That way the
colors can be editable) but they can’t move the pieces. Then you add the text elements using the tool
so your clients can edit them to match their needs.

5.2.2.Display templates
There are 3 ways to display your templates using short codes:
​

·​
​

To display all existing templates, ​[wpc-templates]

·​

To display all templates in a specific category:

[wpc-templates cat="my category name"]
·​

To display all templates related to one or multiple products:
​

[wpc-templates products="1, 12, 123"]​ where 1, 12 and 123 are the IDs
of your base products.
Note​: When you get the error message “You have to select a customizable product first”
when trying to browse the product templates, this means you used the same page as
customization page (WPD > Settings) and as product template page. That creates a conflict.
You need 2 separates pages. It is recommended you create another page that will be used to
display the templates of your product "Product Designer Badge". In that page you'll put a
shortcode [wpc-templates] to display the templates you need. Make sure you use a different
page for your templates and a different page for your custom page.

6.Advanced Settings
After the creation of your products, you may need to customize the designer in order to make it fit
your site graphical charter or just to make it more user friendly. Here are the features that will help
you.

6.1.General
●

Automatically append canvas to design page​: Allows you to define whether or not you
want to use a shortcode to display the editor in the designer page. This feature gives you the
ability to put the designer anywhere in the customization page.

canvas to design page​ option is set to ​NO​.

corresponding fields in the plugin social networks settings.

Note​: If these steps are not followed in setting up the connection to the specific social network, the icons will be
disabled.

6.4.Outputs
●

●

Output width (px)​: This setting allows you to configure the output files dimensions. So if you
want to generate high definition files, just enter the file width in pixels. The height is
determined automatically using the defined width. If the output width is empty, the output will
have the canvas dimensions.
Output loop delay (milliseconds)​: Time to go through each part when trying to generate the
output files especially if during the generation process, you get the message "The edition area
is empty. You can increase this setting when the output contains HD files or when the output is
HD.

© Orion - Reproduction in whole or in part of this document or its communication outside Orion is forbidden, unless written
authorization

Note​: The canvas dimensions can be set globally in the plugin general settings (so
they will be active on every product) or they can be set per product on the product creation/edition
page.
By default, the generated output file will have the canvas dimensions. But this behavior can be
overwritten by setting the Output min width in the output settings. That way, the output will have the
width defined and the height will be determined proportionally to the canvas height.
When previewing, adding to cart or generating/downloading output, the plugin needs time to
determine the optimal parameters based on the elements used by the customer (text, images,
shapes...). Unfortunately, that time can't be defined automatically. So you have to make sure that the
Output loop delay parameter is set accordingly and that its value equals at least the output width plus
300. If during the generation, you get the error message "The edition area is empty", make sure you
increase the defined value by 500 until the issue is fixed.
One more thing: to be able to send the generated data to the server, you have to make sure your
server does not have limitations related to the amount of data which can be sent through a form.

printing process itself. Allows you to set whether or not you need the output to be CMYK valid.
CMYK profile (when CMYK mode is active)​: Allows you to set your own CMYK profile to
use during the output conversion. It is disabled if the imagemagick extension is not installed

9.Frequently asked questions
9.1.How can I Generate HD output?
The plugin is not set to 300dpi which is a large quality and dimension. It is set to 72dpi but there is a
way around or a workaround to generate a large dimension and quality if there is a specific dimension
needed for the generated output file, all you have to do is….
For example, the output needed is 4000 x 2000. If your canvas size is set to default (canvas min width
(px) is 800 and canvas min height (px) is 500), multiply your choice of output height by your canvas
min width (px) (2000 x 800 = 1600000) then you divide your answer by your choice of output width
(px) (1600000 / 4000 = 400). The answer (400) will be what you will set as your canvas height instead
of the default (500) in order to get your choice of dimension as your generated output or something
close to thatJ.

9.2.Why are my Images/Text not Visible in the Editor?
Make sure you set the coordinates X and Y of the Bounding box properly.
The bounding box is supposed to be the editable area on the canvas. So the coordinates allow you to
define the position of that area on the canvas. If you set a couple of coordinates that put the box
outside the canvas, nothing will be visible on the canvas.
Please also note that these parameters are mandatory if you need only a specific part of the
product in the canvas/custom page to be editable. If you don't define them, the box will be disabled.
If you don’t have a specific values to set or not sure of what values to set, it is advisable you do not
define them. As said earlier, setting the wrong coordinates or values might put the box outside the
canvas thereby making anything being added in the canvas not visible.

9.3.How can I create Templates or view the “Browse Our Templates” Button?
If you are having a hard time viewing your created templates or the “Browse Our Templates” button…
Follow the instructions on the Template section above.
Go back to your Dashboard >> Products >> "select the product"...at the right side where you will see
"Customizable Products" there is a drop-down menu, click and select the template page you have
created. Click on update to save.
After all is done, go to your shop and the button "browse our templates" will be seen under the
"design from blank" button.

9.4.Why do I have Malfunctioning or not Functioning Buttons on website?
Sometimes, it might be the conflict of coding in a theme. You can change your theme to a default
theme or another theme to verify.
Sometimes, it might be the conflict of Plugins. You will have to deactivate each Plugins you have one
after the other to verify. For example…deactivate the first plugin, go to the page you are having the
issue, refresh and try again. If no solution, go back to your Plugins, activate the previously deactivated

authorization

plugin and deactivate the next one then go to verify again. Do this until you are sure it is or not a
plugin conflict.
9.5.What does this error message...”Fatal error: Allowed Memory size of…..” mean?
When you get the error message “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of...” Please note that it is a
server limitation. Send that message to your hosting company and they will increase your max
memory for scripts. That will fix the issue.

9.6.What does this error message…“Error: empty product parts list. At least one
part is required to create a customizable product.0” mean?
When you get the error message “Error: empty product parts list. At least one part is required to
create a customizable product.0” Please note that you have not created a product part in your
Dashboard >>WPD >> Parts​… Please verify to make sure there is at least one part created.

9.7.How can I change the Language?
The plugin uses wordpress's language. So if your WordPress is in German, the German translation
file will be the one used by the plugin.
Next thing you need to know is that you need to translate it yourself because we haven't found great
translators yet for all languages. You can use a plugin like wpml or codestyling
https://wordpress.org/plugins/codestyling-localization/​.

9.8.Where can I find my Purchase code?
Please visit this
website…https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202822600-Where-can-I-find-my-Purchase
-Code-

9.9.Why does my Preview not display and the screen freezes?
This issue is because there is a conflict between the plugin script and the script of the theme. Only
one of the scripts should be allowed to avoid this conflict. In order to avoid this conflict there is a
setting option “​LOAD BOOTSRAP MODAL​” in the ​WPD >> Settings >> General Settings​ as above
to help.

9.10.Why does the designer not load the some images?
When the plugin jetpack is installed and its photon feature is active, the images are not loaded on the
designer. This is due to the fact that the images are to be uploaded from a secured server. So, if you
have the plugin “​jetpack by wordpress.com​"​ ​installed, please keep​ its photon feature​ deactivated.
