Create your first badge

To start and create your first badge in the plugin settings page choose tab Badge Presets.

The dropdown aside the Add Item + button declares the badge type. The button itself creates a new badge card based on the selected type. Options are not saved until the Save button is clicked.

First steps after integration

If you're using the Woo Template integration option, the plugin will completly replace current theme badges, so you'd first need to create a primary Sale badge.

1. In the dropdown select Sale and click the Add Item +
2. Once the new badge card is created name it. Fill in the Preset Name
3. A sale badge has Style, Color and Position options. Set this options to your likings
4. Setting the badge name and options creates a new badge, still this badge isn't assigned anywhere
5. To do that visit the Badge Manager tab
6. In the manager under Primary Badge set the newly created sale badge by selecting it from the dropdown by name. The primary badge is shown on all products. Since sale badges are shown only on products on sale the primary badge can be used as a default badge when using the Woo Template integration
7. Click Save button to keep the settings
8. You can check your Shop and Product pages for the new sale badge and see if the integration worked correctly

info

Sale badges are only shown on products that are on sale. Products on sale have a sale price defined in the Woo product page.

info

Sale timers below the sale badge are shown on products which have scheduled sales activated. These options are from the Woo itself. To set the scheduled sale navigate product page and use the Schedule link bellow the Sale Price input under General product data tab.
