Add to Cart Links with Products & Quantities – Documentation & Changelog

Current version: 1.0.3 · Last updated: 2026-10-24 · Requires: WordPress 6.2+, WooCommerce 8.0+, PHP 7.4+ · Name in WordPress: Cart Share Links for WooCommerce · Plugin page ›

What the plugin does

One link that fills the customer’s cart with the products and quantities you choose. You prepare the offer in the dashboard, send the link by e-mail, chat or social media – the customer clicks and goes straight to payment.

What it does

A ready cart in one click

A link can hold any number of products – including specific variations (e.g. size, colour) – with a quantity for each. After a click the customer lands on the cart page with everything already added.

Result: the customer does not have to search for or add anything – from offer to order is a single click.

Links ready to copy from the list

The list of links shows the address of each link with a copy button. In a WPML store you pick a language next to it – the link opens the cart in that language, with translated products.

Result: an offer for a customer abroad takes seconds.

No clutter in Google

Links never appear in the site search, menus or the sitemap, and browsers and caches do not store them – every click always adds the current products.

Good to know

• Opening a link replaces what the customer had in the cart – the cart contains only the products from the link.
• Prices in the cart are always current, as in the store (the link stores products and quantities, not prices).
• The plugin is compatible with HPOS and the WooCommerce block checkout.

Installation and first settings

Before you start

You need WordPress 6.2 or newer, WooCommerce 8.0+, PHP 7.4+ and an administrator account. Back up your store before installing any new plugin – most hosting panels do it with one button.

Step 1: download the plugin and the licence key

After your order (Pro, or the free 5-day Free version) you get an e-mail with your licence key and a Download button. The key and the file are always available in My account → Licences on wpasist.eu.

1. Click Download and save cart-links-for-woocommerce.zip on your computer.
2. Do not unzip the file – WordPress installs the plugin straight from the ZIP.

Safari on a Mac may unzip downloads automatically. If you see a folder instead of a ZIP file, compress it again (right-click → Compress) or turn off opening “safe” files after downloading in Safari.

Step 2: install and activate the plugin

1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard (usually yourstore.com/wp-admin).
2. Go to Plugins → Add New Plugin and click Upload Plugin.
3. Choose cart-links-for-woocommerce.zip and click Install Now.
4. When you see “Plugin installed successfully”, click Activate Plugin.

Result: the left menu now has a wpAsist item with this plugin and the Licences screen.

Step 3: activate the licence

1. Go to wpAsist → Licences.
2. Paste the key from the e-mail next to this plugin and click Activate licence.
3. The status changes to Active until … (the end date of your licence).

Without an active licence a cart link takes the customer to the home page and adds nothing. Your saved links stay and work again once the key is active.

The key works on one domain. If you move the store to another address, change it yourself in My account → Licences → Change domain on wpasist.eu. New versions arrive in the dashboard like any WordPress update (Dashboard → Updates) while the licence is active – your settings are kept.

Step 4: create your first link

Go to wpAsist → Cart Links and click Add new.

1. Enter a title – only you see it, e.g. “Starter kit for company X”.
2. In the Products in the cart box, type a few letters of the name, SKU or ID in Product and choose the product (or a specific variation) from the list.
3. Enter the number of items in Quantity.
4. Add more products with Add product; remove a row with the cross.
5. Click Publish.

Result: the Link for the customer section shows the ready address, e.g. yourstore.com/cart-kit/starter-kit/.

Step 5: copy and send the link

1. Go to wpAsist → Cart Links – the Link column shows the address of each link.
2. In a multilingual store choose the customer’s language next to it (e.g. DE).
3. Click the copy icon – a ✓ appears and the link is in your clipboard.
4. Paste it into an e-mail, a chat message or a post.

Step 6: test the link

Open the copied link in a private browser window – you should land on the cart page with the products and quantities from the link.

Changelog

1.0.3 – 2026-10-24

• Licence: the plugin sends its name when it checks the key, so a key works only in the plugins it covers (one plugin, a bundle or All Access).
• wpAsist → Licences: new “Use this key for all wpAsist plugins” – a bundle or All Access key is activated in every plugin at once; plugins the key does not cover keep their own key.
