Write some code to enable Subscriptions for WooCommerce Products but without using the Woo Subscription plugin or other 3rd party plugins.
The robot generated the following code:
Enabling subscriptions for your WooCommerce products without using a plugin involves creating a custom solution. Here is a simplified starter code snippet, that might give you a kick-off. Note that this is a basic model and would need to be customized and extended according to your specific requirements. Make sure to prefix all functions with "nm_".
This code snippet is kept simple for readability purposes and only handles the subscription logic. Further work is needed to seamlessly implement this logic in WooCommerce such as subscription payments, user management etc. Also note that if you have hundreds of transactions or complex needs this simple PHP model may not be best practice.
“`php
function nm_add_product_subscription_field() {
echo '<div class="options_group">';
woocommerce_wp_checkbox(
array(
'id' => '_subscription',
'label' => __('Enable Subscription', 'woocommerce' )
)
);
echo '</div>';
}
add_action('woocommerce_product_options_general_product_data', 'nm_add_product_subscription_field');
function nm_save_product_subscription_field( $post_id ) {
$is_subscription = isset( $_POST['_subscription'] ) ? 'yes' : 'no';
update_post_meta( $post_id, '_subscription', $is_subscription );
}
add_action('woocommerce_process_product_meta', 'nm_save_product_subscription_field');
function nm_change_add_to_cart_button_text( $text ) {
global $product;
if ( $product->get_meta('_subscription') === 'yes' ) {
$text = __( 'Subscribe', 'woocommerce' );
}
return $text;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_single_add_to_cart_text', 'nm_change_add_to_cart_button_text' );
add_filter( 'woocommerce_product_add_to_cart_text', 'nm_change_add_to_cart_button_text' );

Remember to change 'nm_' in the code to your own prefix to avoid any function name collisions.
This code adds a new checkbox 'Enable Subscription' to the product data meta box. If checked, the 'Add to cart' button text for the product will be changed to 'Subscribe'. The subscription status of each product is stored as post meta. If a product is marked as a subscription product, the 'Add to cart' button's text is changed to 'Subscribe'.
This is just the skeleton. The actual process to handle the subscription reoccurrence, payments, cancellations, and notifications, etc. needs to be custom-coded which can be really extensive and complex
