How Does the Loom Gift Notes Extension Work?

↑ Back to top
Loom Gift Notes places a button on your customer’s cart page. The button gives them the option to create and add a 5″ x 7″ gift note to their order. The Gift Note button launches our creation engine model, where the customer can create a personalized note, with a photo and message, in just a few minutes.

Setup and Configuration

↑ Back to top
Outside of activating your Loom plugin through the Plugins section of WordPress, there is no setup or configuration required at this time. Future configurations and settings may be applied. Notes: After you have activated the Loom plugin, there will be a “Loom Gift Note” product that is added to your store. This gift-note is automatically added to the users cart when creating a gift note upon checkout. You have the ability to customize the Loom Gift Note product, and change the pricing of it for your users. However, the product name (ie “Loom Gift Note”) must remain the name of the product. If you change the product name the gift note process will still function as intended, but the gift note product will not be automatically added to the users cart. That being said, we are working diligently on updates to the plugin to allow for further customization within the WordPress/Woocommerce dashboard.
