It’s good practice to have your vendors configure their store. Some of them don’t even notice they can add a short and long vendor description or set a shop name. So, this code fixes that by alerting them to their lack of having configured their shop.
Make sure you’ve copied the links.php into /wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/wc-product-vendor/dashboard/links.php. Edit links.php and add this code wherever you wish the message to be displayed:
<?php
$author_id = get_current_user_id();
$shop_name_set = WCV_Vendors::get_vendor_shop_name( $author_id );
$vendor_login = get_userdata($author_id);
if ($shop_name_set == $vendor_login->user_login) {
// Only choose one of the following lines depending on what theme you have.
// Use the following line if you have a WooThemes theme.
echo do_shortcode( '[box type="alert"]<strong><h3>You havent configured your store name!</h3><p>More message text here.<br><br><a href="’.$settings_page.’">Click here to set your store name</a></p>.[/box]' );
// Use this line for any other theme
echo '<h3>You havent configured your store name!</h3><p>More message text here.<br><br><a href="'.$settings_page.'">Click here to set your store name</a>.</p>';
}
?>
