Set Up Minimum Order Quantity for WooCommerce in Just 4 Minutes!

I want to know if it is possible to establish different minimum purchasing rules for a public e-commerce and a private wholesale one. ( Barn2 Plugins )

@luart3029 Thank you for the comment. This is possible in a limited capacity with our WooComemrce Wholesale Pro. You can set category-level rules and apply them only to wholesale user roles or only retail user roles. Then you can set the rules for the other user roles at the global level. For example, if rules are set for wholesale users at the category level, then those rules will be applied to a wholesale user when they log in. If a retail user logs in, the category-level rules are ignored and the global rules are applied. I realize this may not be applicable depending on how your specific requirement but this is what is possible with the two plugins out-of-the-box. If this is not usefule for you and if you're interested in exploring plugin customizations to achieve your specific requirement, we offer plugin customization services as well - barn2.com/services/plugin-customization/. If you need additional standard plugin support, you can reach us through our Support Center - barn2.com/support-center/. - Carl

I'm looking for a MOQ based on total weight of all product in the cart - minimum order quantity for my customers is 5kg - they must have a total weight of 5kg in their cart before they can check out - this can come from either 1 category or multiple categories

Hi, Melanie. Thanks for your interest. WooCommerce Orders compute for the total using quantities and product prices, so if you want to put a minimum restriction based on total weight, you'll need to implement a workaround to quantify the weight according to product quantity and/or price. We have suggestions for how to sell by weight in WooCommerce at barn2.com/blog/sell-by-weight-woocommerce/ - i.e. either (1) Add weight options as variations, or (2) Price products by weight. Then you can use our WooCommerce Quantity Manager plugin to set MOQ that translates to the product weight. If you also need to allow decimal quantity inputs (as WooCommerce only allows whole number quantity inputs), you can also consider our suggestion at barn2.com/blog/woocommerce-decimal-quantity-plugin/ . I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions, or get in touch via our Support Center at barn2.com/support-center/ . Best regards, -Edge
