Integration Add-on - This add-on extends MainWP to work with WooCommerce. Requires WooCommerce to be installed on your child sites.

The MainWP WooCommerce Shortcuts Extension adds a widget to individual child site Overview pages, providing direct links to WooCommerce admin pages through MainWP’s Jump to WP Admin flow.

Where to Find the Widget

After installing the extension, the WooCommerce Shortcuts widget appears on individual child site Overview pages:

1. Navigate to MainWP > Sites
2. Click on any child site name to open its Overview page
3. Look for the WooCommerce Shortcuts widget

The widget only appears for child sites where WooCommerce is installed, activated, and detected during site sync.

If you open MainWP > Add-ons > WooCommerce Shortcuts, the page only shows a notice. The add-on does not provide separate settings there and works through the individual site Overview widget.

Available Shortcuts

The widget is organized into four accordion sections:

Requirements

• MainWP Dashboard with WooCommerce Shortcuts extension installed
• WooCommerce plugin installed and activated on the child site
• MainWP Child plugin connected
• Child site synced after WooCommerce is activated so MainWP can detect it

If WooCommerce is not detected on a child site, the widget displays a WooCommerce not detected notice instead of the shortcut menus.

Installation

1. Install the add-on on your MainWP Dashboard site using Manage Add-ons or the WordPress plugin installer
2. Install and activate WooCommerce on the child site
3. Sync the child site in your MainWP Dashboard
4. Visit the child site’s Overview page to use the widget
