Readme

# 🚫 Smart Order Checker

Smart Order Checker is a lightweight and effective WordPress plugin for WooCommerce that prevents customers from placing multiple orders for the same product using the same phone number within a set time interval.

Developed by Alamin, this plugin is ideal for stores that want to control repetitive orders, reduce spam, or prevent abuse of limited-time or quantity offers.

🔧 Features

  • 🛒 Block Repeat Orders: Prevents the same phone number from ordering the same product again within a defined time period.
  • 🕒 Custom Time Limit: Admin can set how many minutes must pass before a product can be re-ordered using the same phone number.
  • 📢 Custom Error Message: Show a personalized error note on the checkout page when repeat order is blocked.
  • 🧠 Smart WooCommerce Integration: Automatically checks recent orders with the same billing phone during checkout.
  • ⚙️ Admin Settings Page: Easily configurable options under Settings > Smart Order Checker.
  • 🔒 WooCommerce Dependency Notice: If WooCommerce is not installed or active, an admin warning is displayed.

📥 Installation

  1. Download the plugin ZIP file or clone this repository.
  2. Upload it to your WordPress site via the Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin screen.
  3. Activate the plugin.
  4. Go to Settings > Smart Order Checker to configure time delay and error message.

⚙️ How It Works

  1. Customer tries to place an order.
  2. Plugin checks if the same product was already ordered by the same phone number (_billing_phone).
  3. If a matching order exists and it's within the restricted time range:
    • The order is blocked.
    • A custom error message is shown (e.g., “You have already placed an order. Please wait 60 minutes before ordering again.”).

🛠️ Admin Settings Page

You can configure:

  • ⏱️ Time Limit: Number of minutes to wait before allowing a repeat order.
  • 📝 Custom Error Message: Text to show when an order is blocked. Supports {minutes} placeholder.
