User feedback: 'SPA means Single Page, why 4 pages?'
Correct architecture:
- 1 SPA entry page (e.g., /store)
- SPA Mode determines initial route:
* Full SPA → starts at shop page
* Checkout Only → starts at cart page
* Disabled → never loads
- React Router handles rest via /#/ routing
Changes:
- Admin UI: Changed from 4 page selectors to 1 SPA entry page
- Backend: spa_pages array → spa_page integer
- Template: Initial route based on spa_mode setting
- Simplified is_spa_page() checks (single ID comparison)
Benefits:
- User can set /store as homepage (Settings → Reading)
- Landing page → CTA → direct to cart/checkout
- Clean single entry point
- Mode controls behavior, not multiple pages
Example flow:
- Visit https://site.com/store
- Full SPA: loads shop, navigate via /#/product/123
- Checkout Only: loads cart, navigate via /#/checkout
- Homepage: set /store as homepage, SPA loads on site root
Next: Add direct-to-cart CTA with product parameter
Complete WooCommerce-style page architecture implementation:
Backend (already committed):
- API endpoint to fetch WordPress pages
- spa_pages field in appearance settings
- is_spa_page() checks in TemplateOverride and Assets
Frontend (this commit):
- Added page selector UI in Appearance > General
- Dropdowns for Shop, Cart, Checkout, Account pages
- Loads available WordPress pages from API
- Saves selected page IDs to settings
- Info alert explaining full-body rendering
UI Features:
- Clean page selection interface
- Shows all published WordPress pages
- '— None —' option to disable
- Integrated into existing General settings tab
- Follows existing design patterns
How it works:
1. Admin selects pages in Appearance > General
2. Page IDs saved to woonoow_appearance_settings
3. Frontend checks if current page matches selected pages
4. If match, renders full SPA to body (no theme interference)
5. Works with ANY theme consistently
Next: Test page selection and verify clean SPA rendering
Problem: Shortcode 'island' architecture is fragile and theme-dependent
- SPA div buried deep in theme structure (body > div.wp-site-blocks > main > div#app)
- Theme and plugins can intervene at any level
- Different themes have different structures
- Breaks easily with theme changes
Solution: Dedicated page-based SPA system (like WooCommerce)
- Add page selection in Appearance > General settings
- Store page IDs for Shop, Cart, Checkout, Account
- Full-body SPA rendering on designated pages
- No theme interference
Changes:
- AppearanceController.php:
* Added spa_pages field to general settings
* Stores page IDs for each SPA type (shop/cart/checkout/account)
- TemplateOverride.php:
* Added is_spa_page() method to check designated pages
* Use blank template for designated pages (priority over legacy)
* Remove theme elements for designated pages
- Assets.php:
* Added is_spa_page() check before mode/shortcode checks
* Load assets on designated pages regardless of mode
Architecture:
- Designated pages render directly to <body>
- No theme wrapper/structure interference
- Clean full-page SPA experience
- Works with ANY theme consistently
Next: Add UI in admin-spa General tab for page selection
1. Toast Position Control ✅
- Added toast_position setting to Appearance > General
- 6 position options: top-left/center/right, bottom-left/center/right
- Default: top-right
- Backend: AppearanceController.php (save/load toast_position)
- Frontend: Customer SPA reads from appearanceSettings and applies to Toaster
- Admin UI: Select dropdown in General settings
- Solves UX issue: toast blocking cart icon in header
2. Currency Formatting Fix ✅
- Changed formatPrice import from @/lib/utils to @/lib/currency
- @/lib/currency respects WooCommerce currency settings (IDR, not USD)
- Reads currency code, symbol, position, separators from window.woonoowCustomer.currency
- Applies correct formatting for Indonesian Rupiah and any other currency
3. Dialog Accessibility Warnings Fixed ✅
- Added DialogDescription component to all taxonomy dialogs
- Categories: 'Update category information' / 'Create a new product category'
- Tags: 'Update tag information' / 'Create a new product tag'
- Attributes: 'Update attribute information' / 'Create a new product attribute'
- Fixes console warning: Missing Description or aria-describedby
Note on React Key Warning:
The warning about missing keys in ProductCategories is still appearing in console.
All table rows already have proper key props (key={category.term_id}).
This may be a dev server cache issue or a nested element without a key.
The code is correct - keys are present on all mapped elements.
Files Modified:
- includes/Admin/AppearanceController.php (toast_position setting)
- admin-spa/src/routes/Appearance/General.tsx (toast position UI)
- customer-spa/src/App.tsx (apply toast position from settings)
- customer-spa/src/pages/Wishlist.tsx (use correct formatPrice from currency)
- admin-spa/src/routes/Products/Categories.tsx (DialogDescription)
- admin-spa/src/routes/Products/Tags.tsx (DialogDescription)
- admin-spa/src/routes/Products/Attributes.tsx (DialogDescription)
Result:
✅ Toast notifications now configurable and won't block header elements
✅ Prices display in correct currency (IDR) with proper formatting
✅ All Dialog accessibility warnings resolved
⚠️ React key warning persists (but keys are correctly implemented)
