A pCon product configurator inside WooCommerce

A WordPress plugin that imports your manufacturer catalogue from pCon, loads the 3D configurator on the product page, and writes what the customer configured into the WooCommerce order. It installs like any other WordPress plugin, with no build step and no custom development.

What ends up in the order

This is the part that decides whether a configurator is a toy or a sales tool. Per configured line, WooCommerce receives:

  • The configuration title and the manufacturer article number, both following the configuration rather than the WordPress product
  • The configured price, with net and gross kept apart
  • The OFML variant code, the manufacturer code and the series
  • The feature text: every property the customer chose
  • The component articles underneath the line, each with their own number and price, so purchasing can order them
  • The render as an image, and a link that reopens the exact configuration

How the plugin works

  1. Install and paste one key

    A normal WordPress plugin, no build step. You paste the key you created in the portal and the connection registers itself.

  2. Import from the real catalogue

    Browse the manufacturer tree in WP Admin, tick articles and import them as WooCommerce products: title, specification table, price, the render as product image, and brand and series as attributes you can filter on.

  3. The product page composes the configurator

    Nothing is hard-coded into the product. The page builds the configurator URL at render time from the article reference and the gatekeeper your account holds centrally, so changing instance is a setting and not a data migration.

  4. Add to cart posts back, signed

    The configurator posts the OCI fields to a signed webhook on your own shop. The plugin verifies the token, verifies the price signature, imports the render and drops the visitor in the cart.

What it asks of your environment: WordPress with WooCommerce, on PHP 8.3 or newer, and max_input_vars raised to 5000. That last one is a hosting setting rather than a plugin setting, and it is what decides whether a configuration of twenty articles or more can reach the cart in one piece.

Updates keep working

The plugin is not on wordpress.org, so it has its own update channel. New versions show up in your WordPress updates screen like any other plugin, and the package is checksum-verified before it installs. There is no licence key in the plugin, no countdown and no kill switch: if a subscription lapses the plugin tells the administrator and the configurator keeps working.

What it costs

WooCommerce connection

€249per month, per shop

Or €2,490 per year, which is ten months. Every further shop under the same account is €149 per month.

  • Catalogue import and the configurator
  • Plugin updates and support
  • Staging environments are free and labelled as such

Onboarding, one off

€1750once

Installation, guiding your request to EasternGraphics, setting up the article mapping and checking the first import.

All amounts exclude VAT and exclude the pCon licence you hold with EasternGraphics. There is no trial period: this is a service with an implementation, not an app you switch on.

Before this can work

You need a pCon.ui instance of your own from EasternGraphics, and they need to whitelist your shop domain by hand. That is one live domain plus two development domains, no wildcards, and every subdomain listed separately. Your manufacturers also need to publish OFML data and have shared their catalogue with your account. If you are not sure whether they do, that is exactly the question to put to us.
