About Auto Clear Carts for WooCommerce
From the official readme · v5.1.0Description
Auto Clear Carts for WooCommerce is a high-performance, lightweight plugin designed to handle idle shopping carts automatically and silently without disrupting the user experience or requiring manual page refreshes.
Powered by real-time background AJAX polling, the plugin tracks active sessions and seamlessly clears expired cart items in the background after a user-configurable timeout.
Instead of creating fake or cluttered orders in the standard WooCommerce Orders screen, it logs all abandoned cart details into a dedicated, isolated admin dashboard. Store administrators can view detailed customer information, product lists, item quantities, total prices, and exact timestamps directly via a smooth inline accordion menu.
Key Features:
- Real-time AJAX Expiration: Silently clears cart items in the background without forcing page reloads or showing disruptive popup alerts.
- Dedicated Abandoned Cart Dashboard: Keeps your standard WooCommerce Orders section clean by storing abandoned cart logs in a separate interface.
- Inline Accordion Details View: View full product details, customer information, subtotals, and timestamps seamlessly within the same page (no annoying modals or popups).
- Safe Across Updates: Cart data and history are stored persistently in dedicated database fields, ensuring no lost logs when updating the plugin.
- Custom Timeout Settings: Flexible cart expiration limits set directly from the native WooCommerce General Settings tab.
- Manual Log Management: Delete processed or old entries with a single click.
Future Updates & Roadmap:
This plugin is under active development! Future updates will bring enhanced analytics, advanced filtering, export options, and additional automated management features to give store owners full control over their store inventory and cart cycles.
