Wishlist (Wishlist Sharer)

List sharing, Administration, Article status, Public search, Gift purchase

Description: This tool allows your customers to create personalized and shareable wishlists, making it easier for friends and family to purchase gifts.

What is it for? (Practical examples)

  • Gift Management: Allow customers to create a list for birthdays, weddings, or births, ensuring they receive desired gifts without duplicates.
  • Sales Increase: Turn items saved by customers into direct sales opportunities, allowing third parties to buy on their behalf.
  • Purchase Tracking: Offer customers buying a gift the ability to mark the item as "purchased" or "reserved" to prevent others from buying it.

Main Features

1. List Creation and Sharing

  • Personal Wishlist: Each registered customer can access their reserved area to view and manage their wishlist.
  • Sharing Link: The system automatically generates a unique link that the customer can share with whoever they want.
  • Public List Search: It is possible to configure a public page on the site that allows users to search active wishlists (for example, by searching the name of the celebrant).

2. Managing Products in the List

Both the customer (if authorized) and the administrator can manage products within a list.

  • Flexible Addition: You can add existing products from the catalog or insert a custom "New product."
  • Product Details: For each item, preview, price, quantity, and total are displayed.
  • Variations and Subscriptions: The system correctly handles product variations and warns if multiple subscriptions are attempted in the same order.

3. Gift Status and Duplicate Prevention

When an external user views the list to make a purchase, the system provides tools to coordinate buying:

  • Manual Marking: Users can mark a product as:
  • Purchased: The item has been bought (and will no longer be available for purchase by others).
  • Reserved: The item has been set aside and is intended to be purchased soon.
  • Delivered: The item has been physically received by the recipient.
  • Status Display: If a product has already been gifted (purchased via a previous order) or reserved, the "Add to cart" button is replaced by a status message ("Item gifted" or "Item reserved").

4. Price Customization

It is possible to set a custom (discounted) price for a specific product within the list. When viewed via the wishlist link, this special price will apply.

How to Configure

Management and configuration of wishlists happen through the Wishlists section in the admin panel.
