ShowPro Quote Request

From WordPress.org (recommended)

1. 01Go to Plugins → Add New in your WordPress admin.
2. 02Search for ShowPro Request a Quote or Request a Quote WooCommerce .
3. 03Click Install Now , then Activate .
4. 04WooCommerce must be active — the plugin will tell you if it is not.

Manual installation

1. 05Download the zip file and extract the showpro-quote-request folder.
2. 06Upload it to /wp-content/plugins/ via FTP or the WordPress file manager.
3. 07Activate through Plugins → Installed Plugins .

First-time setup (2 minutes)

1. 08Go to ShowPro → Settings and confirm the recipient email address for quote notifications.
2. 09Optionally update the button text and success message.
3. 10Edit any WooCommerce product, open the Quote Settings tab, and check Enable quote request .
4. 11Visit the product on the frontend — the quote button should appear where Add to Cart was.

Does this work with variable products?

Yes. The quote button replaces the entire Add to Cart form for all WooCommerce product types — simple, variable, grouped, and external/affiliate.

Can I use Add to Cart on most products and the quote button only on specific ones?

Yes — the setting is per-product. Products without the quote option enabled behave exactly as they did before you installed the plugin.

Can I hide the price on quote-enabled products?

Yes. The Hide price checkbox in the product’s Quote Settings tab removes the price from both the shop listing and the single product page. The price is hidden until you respond to the quote.

Can I use this to run my WooCommerce store in catalog mode?

Partially — you can enable the quote button and hide prices on all your products to prevent purchasing. For a full catalog mode (disable cart and checkout site-wide), you would combine this plugin with a catalog mode plugin.

Can I change which fields appear in the quote form?

Yes. Go to ShowPro → Settings and toggle phone number, company name, and quantity on or off. Name and email are always required.

Can I change the position or alignment of the quote button?

Yes. ShowPro → Settings → Button Alignment lets you choose Left, Center, or Right. The setting applies to both the shop loop and the single product page.

How do I customise the email templates?

Copy the template file from the plugin’s /templates/ folder into your theme directory:

• {theme}/showpro-quote-request/email-admin.php — admin notification
• {theme}/showpro-quote-request/email-customer.php — customer confirmation
• {theme}/showpro-quote-request/modal.php — the quote form modal

Your theme’s copy takes priority over the plugin default. Plugin updates will never overwrite your customisations.

Where are quote requests stored?

In your WordPress database as a custom post type ( showpro_quote ). Quote data is never sent to any external service. You own your data completely.

What happens to my quote data if I uninstall the plugin?

Plugin settings (recipient email, button text, etc.) are deleted on uninstall. Quote post data is intentionally preserved — you will not lose your request history. If you want to remove the posts too, you can do so directly from the database.

Is it compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)?

Yes. Compatibility is explicitly declared. The plugin uses its own custom post type for quotes and does not interact with WooCommerce orders at all.

Does it work with WPML or Polylang?

The plugin is fully translation-ready. All user-facing strings use the showpro-quote-request text domain. A .pot file can be generated with WP-CLI ( wp i18n make-pot ). Full WPML / Polylang testing is planned for v1.1.

Is there a Pro version?

The version on WordPress.org includes all of the features described above and is complete on its own. Additional features such as PDF quote generation may be offered separately in the future.

Can other plugins add their own pages to the ShowPro admin menu?

Yes. Any plugin (including future ShowPro plugins) can register a submenu using:

do_action( 'showpro_register_module', [ 'menu_slug' => 'my-page', 'page_title' => 'My Page', 'menu_title' => 'My Page', 'capability' => 'manage_options', 'callback' => 'my_render_function', 'position' => 20 ] );

Fire this on the admin_menu hook at priority < 10.
