🐛 Problem: - SPA not loading in wp-admin - Trying to load from dev server (localhost:5173) - Happening in Local by Flywheel (wp_get_environment_type() = 'development') ✅ Solution: - Changed is_dev_mode() to ONLY enable dev mode if WOONOOW_ADMIN_DEV constant is explicitly set - Removed wp_get_environment_type() check - Now defaults to production mode (loads from admin-spa/dist/) 📝 To Enable Dev Mode: Add to wp-config.php: define('WOONOOW_ADMIN_DEV', true); 🎯 Result: - Production mode by default - Dev mode only when explicitly enabled - Works correctly in Local by Flywheel and other local environments

# Markdown Syntax & Variables - Analysis & Recommendations
|
|
|
|
## Current Issues
|
|
|
|
### 1. Card & Button Syntax
|
|
**Current:**
|
|
```markdown
|
|
[card type="hero"]
|
|
Content here
|
|
[/card]
|
|
|
|
[button url="https://example.com" style="solid"]Click me[/button]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Problem:** Not standard Markdown - uses WordPress-style shortcodes
|
|
|
|
### 2. Variable Naming Mismatch
|
|
**Template uses:** `{order_item_table}` (singular)
|
|
**Preview defines:** `order_items_table` (plural)
|
|
**Result:** Variable not replaced, shows as `{orderitemtable}` (underscores removed by some HTML sanitizer)
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## All Variables Used in Templates
|
|
|
|
### Order Variables
|
|
- `{order_number}` - Order ID
|
|
- `{order_date}` - Order date
|
|
- `{order_total}` - Total amount
|
|
- `{order_status}` - Current status
|
|
- `{order_url}` - Link to view order
|
|
- `{order_item_table}` ⚠️ **MISMATCH** - Should be `order_items_table`
|
|
|
|
### Customer Variables
|
|
- `{customer_name}` - Customer full name
|
|
- `{customer_email}` - Customer email
|
|
- `{customer_username}` - Username (for new accounts)
|
|
- `{customer_password}` - Temporary password (for new accounts)
|
|
|

|
- `{store_name}` - Store name
|
|
- `{store_url}` - Store URL
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Payment Variables
|
|

|
|

|
|
- `{transaction_id}` - Transaction ID
|
|
|
|
### Shipping Variables
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Recommendations
|
|
|
|
### Option 1: Keep Current Syntax (Easiest)
|
|
**Pros:**
|
|
- No changes needed
|
|
- Users already familiar
|
|
- Clear boundaries for cards
|
|
|
|
**Cons:**
|
|
- Not standard Markdown
|
|
- Verbose
|
|
|
|
**Action:** Just fix the variable mismatch
|
|
|
|
### Option 2: Simplified Shortcode
|
|
```markdown
|
|
[card:hero]
|
|
Content here
|
|
[/card]
|
|
|
|
[button:solid](https://example.com)Click me[/button]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Pros:**
|
|
- Shorter, cleaner
|
|
- Still clear
|
|
|
|
**Cons:**
|
|
- Still not standard Markdown
|
|
- Requires converter changes
|
|
|
|
### Option 3: HTML + Markdown (Hybrid)
|
|
```html
|
|
<div class="card card-hero">
|
|
|
|
**Content** with markdown
|
|
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<a href="url" class="button">Click me</a>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Pros:**
|
|
- Standard Markdown allows inline HTML
|
|
- No custom parsing needed
|
|
|
|
**Cons:**
|
|
- Verbose
|
|
- Less user-friendly
|
|
|
|
### Option 4: Attributes Syntax (Most Markdown-like)
|
|
```markdown
|
|
> **Order Number:** #{order_number}
|
|
> **Order Date:** {order_date}
|
|
{: .card .card-hero}
|
|
|
|
[Click me](https://example.com){: .button .button-solid}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Pros:**
|
|
- More Markdown-like
|
|
- Compact
|
|
|
|
**Cons:**
|
|
- Complex to parse
|
|
- Not widely supported
|
|
- Users may not understand
|
|

## Recommended Action Plan
|
|
|
|
### Immediate Fixes (Priority 1)
|
|
1. ✅ **Fix `<br>` rendering** - DONE!
|
|
2. ⚠️ **Fix variable mismatch:**
|
|
- Change `order_item_table` → `order_items_table` in DefaultTemplates.php
|
|
- OR change `order_items_table` → `order_item_table` in EditTemplate.tsx preview
|
|
3. **Add all missing variables to preview sample data**
|
|
|
|
### Short-term (Priority 2)
|
|
1. **Document all variables** - Create user-facing documentation
|
|
2. **Add variable autocomplete** in markdown editor
|
|
3. **Add variable validation** - warn if variable doesn't exist
|
|
|
|
### Long-term (Priority 3)
|
|
1. **Consider syntax improvements** - Get user feedback first
|
|
2. **Add visual card/button inserter** - UI buttons to insert syntax
|
|
3. **Add syntax highlighting** in markdown editor
|
|

## Variable Replacement Issue
|
|
|
|
The underscore removal (`{order_item_table}` → `{orderitemtable}`) suggests HTML sanitization is happening somewhere. Need to check:
|
|
|
|
1. **Frontend:** DOMPurify or similar sanitizer?
|
|
2. **Backend:** WordPress `wp_kses()` or similar?
|
|
3. **Email client:** Some email clients strip underscores?
|
|
|
|
**Solution:** Use consistent naming without underscores OR fix sanitizer to preserve variable syntax.
|

|
## Next Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Fix variable naming mismatch
|
|
2. Test all variables in preview
|
|
3. Document syntax for users
|
|
4. Get feedback on syntax preferences
|
|
5. Consider improvements based on feedback
