What's new

We build the next feature from what you tell us. If something would make your store easier to run, or you have seen it done well somewhere else, we want to hear it.

Tell us what to build. Email [email protected] with the features you want, the stores and tools you admire, or a screenshot of a checkout you love. There is no form to fill in and no wrong idea. A real person reads every message, and the person who reads it is the person who builds the plugin.

Recently shipped

A few of the latest improvements. The full per-release list is in the changelog on the WordPress.org page.

Add to cart survives your page cache. A bundle page served from an old cache copy carries an expired security token, and until now every add on that page failed with a bare error. The page now fetches a fresh token and quietly retries, so the box lands in the cart however stale your cache is. No setting, nothing to configure.
See the page before you save. A Bundle preview panel sits under the bundle editor and renders the page as shoppers will see it, redrawing as you edit. Two tabs, the unsaved draft and the page as last saved, plus desktop and phone widths. See your first bundle.
BundleBoss speaks your customers’ language. Spanish ships built in, calibrated per region for Spain, Mexico, Peru, Colombia and Argentina. Italian, French for France and Canada, Brazilian Portuguese and Greek ship too. The storefront follows your site language on its own. See Multilingual & translations.
Name the card, keep the product. Every product and every variation in the bundle editor’s Product cards section carries a small pencil. Type a shorter card name, “Watermelon Gelato” instead of the full listing title, and every box showing that product uses it. The real WooCommerce name stays on the product, in the cart and on orders, and clearing the field brings it back. See Build a box.
Order summaries you can scan on a phone. A boxed bundle’s picks now list one per line on the order page and in the order emails. The chosen pack size gets its own line, and every item says its name, its variation and its quantity, so nothing runs together into one block.
Box cards lead with what differs. When one product’s variations each get their own card in a build-a-box, the flavour or colour is now the bold title with room for two lines, and the product’s name sits above it as a small line. A wall of cards from one product stops reading as the same name repeated, nothing is shortened or renamed, and the cart still records the full product name.
The page starts itself on any hosting setup. On stores that load scripts late, as many speed and caching plugins do, a build-a-box could arrive with its fill grid fully awake before a size was chosen. Every part of the page now takes care of its own start, whatever the theme or an optimiser does with the scripts. And tapping the dimmed grid before choosing a size now points you to the size chooser with a gentle pulse; a box with a single size shows its one price instead of a range with the same figure at both ends.
A category offer can leave products out. Point a slot or a box at a category, then cross off the exceptions: a crossed-off product is never shown and never sold, while new products you give the category still join by themselves. Big categories get a finder box and a capped list, and exports carry the cross-offs to other sites. See Choice slots.
Exclude a bundle from coupons. One tick on the bundle’s Pricing tab and every coupon skips it, current codes and future ones alike. Built for bulk listings whose prices are already discounted; a basket-wide code still works and simply comes off the other items. See Pricing & discounts.
A card per variation in build-a-box. One variable product’s flavours or colours each become their own card, mixed freely in one box, with fixed-price pack sizes on top. Untick the variations you do not want; ones you add later join by themselves. A colour and size product becomes one card holding a quantity grid. See Build a box.
How many can be built. The editor says which component runs out first and the product page shows honest scarcity once ten or fewer can be made. See Stock and fulfilment.
BundleBoss joined a family. Product options, custom fields and print positions on a product’s own page are now AddOnBoss, a plugin of its own. Install it and everything you built is where you left it: nothing was removed and nothing needs rebuilding. BundleBoss stayed the bundle builder. See what moved and where it went.
Itemise on the order. A bundle can be recorded on the order as one native, individually priced and taxed line per component, for the ERP and point-of-sale systems that read native product lines. Off by default, so existing orders are unchanged.
A redesigned bundle editor. The bundle’s settings now live on five clear tabs: Bundle Items, Pricing, Promotions, Display and Help. Every extra (gift, sharing, offers, whole-order personalisation) is one row with a switch and an Edit, so what is on and what exists are both always visible, and item rows collapse to one line each.
Personalisation for the whole order. Fields asked once for the entire bundle, a shared logo, a delivery note, a setup charge, alongside the per-item kind. See Personalisation.
A proper sale, with a countdown. The Sale countdown timer row holds a sale price and its dates; the bundle charges the sale figure for the window and shows a live countdown. Quantity tiers stack on the sale price. See Promotions.
Every price in your shop’s tax basis. The headline, the running total, the “was” and the “You save” all follow WooCommerce’s “Display prices in the shop” setting, on shops that enter prices including tax and display them excluding it too. What you charge is unchanged.
Hide item prices where you sell the pack. Choice slots and boxes can hide per-item prices on the page and in the cart, so a fixed-price hamper reads as one price, not a sum to second-guess.
Refunds restock components. Refunding a bundle puts its component stock back when “restock refunded items” is ticked, so inventory stops drifting.
One rule per option type in the box. A build-a-box pool whose products carry several option types, say a weight and a flavour, now takes one pin per type, with per-product overrides. “Everything at 100g, any flavour” is one rule; the flavour stays the customer’s choice.
Exports carry everything now. A bundle export travels the whole setup, box sizes and rules, promotions, gift mode and personalisation kits included, and re-links your images when the files exist on the destination site. Restoring an export on the same site brings back exactly what you had. See Import & export.
Components tell you when they run low. When bundle sales drain a component past its low-stock threshold, you get WooCommerce’s normal low-stock email, exactly as if it had sold on its own page, and every order notes its component stock movements. See Stock & fulfilment.
Tidier option rows and a clearer block cart. Colour and size options now spread evenly when they wrap (five colours read as 3 and 2, never 4 with an orphan), and the block cart shows an Edit link beside a bundle’s name instead of hiding it in the title link.
The order panel: your bundles, editable on the product page. After adding, the page shows the bundles in your basket as a running order: edit, change quantity or remove each one right there, watch the quantity-tier progress bar fill, and check out when done. Fixed bundles merge repeat adds into one tidy line. On phones a slim bar keeps the total and the next action pinned while you scroll.
Pick the word your shop uses. Call bundles “boxes”, “kits” or “hampers” in one setting and the storefront wording follows, from the pricing pills to the buttons. See Theming.
Edit a bundle in the wizard, not just create one. Open any bundle in the wizard, change its products, layout, pricing, name and description, then save. Anything the wizard does not show is kept exactly as it was, so editing never strips a feature you set by hand.
Customer choices can be “pick several”. A choice slot can now let shoppers pick more than one, for example “pick any 3 of these”, alongside the usual pick-one choice.
The edit preview shows the whole product page. When you edit a bundle in the wizard, the preview renders the entire product page with your unsaved changes, so you see exactly what the customer gets before you save.
Plainer wording in the wizard. The Products step now speaks in plain shop-owner language, so a first-timer knows what each part does at a glance.
Pick-and-mix by pack size. Build a box can now offer set sizes — a 1.7kg bucket that holds 10, a 3kg that holds 20 — each at one flat price. The customer picks a size, then fills it, with the best value size badged. Made for buckets, hampers, coffee bags and meat boxes; set it up in the wizard with One size or Different sizes.
Choice pools from several categories. A choice slot or box can now draw its pool from more than one product category at once, not just one, and each category pool keeps itself current.
A guided creation wizard. Create a bundle with the wizard: pick what you are making, add your products, see a live preview, and publish or save as a draft. The fastest way to your first bundle, and it writes an ordinary bundle you can still edit by hand.

The next Boss plugins

BundleBoss and AddOnBoss are a family, and it just grew: StockBoss is out, keeping a shop’s stock in step with its wholesaler and building the products from their range. The next member is in the workshop, real code in testing rather than roadmap slides, shaped by the merchants already talking to us. Have a use for one, or want it to work a certain way? Tell us and help shape it before it ships.

SubscriptionBoss. Any bundle as a recurring box, from a weekly coffee box to a monthly kit: subscribe and save, pause or skip between deliveries, renewals charged through the Stripe or PayPal connection you already have, and the box stays a full BundleBoss bundle throughout, configurator and all. See where it stands.
StockBoss, now out. Your wholesaler’s stock levels in your shop, kept in step on a schedule. It reads the supplier’s file or API, builds the products from their range for you, and refuses a bad file rather than closing your shop with it. Sold from bossmage.com with a fourteen day free trial. Read the guides.

Bundle analytics, which bundles and which exact configurations actually sell, is also on its way as a plugin of its own. See the plan.

The Builder’s power features

The Builder (Pro) turns a bundle into a full configurator. These are the headline tools:

Choice slots, pick each part from pools you define
Build a box, mix-and-match to a size you set
Configurator layout, a full-page two-pane builder
Personalisation, names, options and logo upload per item
Frequently bought together and Buy X Get Y, upsells and offers
Gift mode and conditional items

See the pricing page for the full free-versus-Pro breakdown.

Tell us what’s next

The roadmap is genuinely steered by what lands in the inbox. If there is something you need, the fastest way to get it built is to tell us about it. We would rather build the thing you actually need than guess.
