Woocommerce global product (multisite) - wordpress

I set in wordpress the property multisite and activated woocommerce on my network.
My network is formed by a primary site and a subsite.
I would like to see from the subsite see the products on the primary site, and products, attributes and categories in the admin bar corresponding products.
Does anyone know how to do?

Yes, you can do it with the WooCommerce MultiStore plugin.
These are a few of the plugin's main features:
Any Product can be replicated across network, making it available to any other store
A product can have different product description and price for each store.
Each store can use different language, currency, payment options and all other options that are included in a standard stand alone WooCommerce store.
Unique Product Stock management for an easy inventory evaluation. The stock synchronization option allows you to synchronize the stock values of the same products across all the stores in the network.
Product management available at the main product, or possible to update / adjust for any other places
One main WooCommerce orders panel with all domains store orders
All product meta data available for other blogs, including content images, product galleries and featured thumbnail.
Any product type as Simple, Grouped, External or Variation
Theme customization in the main admin
From one single WordPress admin panel you can manage as many Woocommerce stores that you want, there are no limits.
You can read the plugin documentation here.

Yes #Zakir is right.
There is no way to share product databases, checkout and user accounts in WooCommerce right now.
There are many people looking for this solution, a WooCommerce MultiSite and Multi Store feature is a must.
I was looking for the very exact thing, since I need to create a website that works like Etsy.com or Themeforest.com and this is what I have found so far:
1. These guys have done some research:
WooCommerce Multisite Global Cart
WooCommerce Multisite Stores
WooCommerce Single Cart Multisite
Since it is really hard to create a fully working WooCommerce MultiSite and global cart plugin (if not impossible) there is the need of a WooCommerce version that is meant to do just that.
I tried to understand with the WooCommerce guys if there is the possibility to have such a feature in WooCommerce in a reasonable amount of time, but looks like this is something that may take ages, since the WooCommerce developers are focusing on other things.
Recently I have found: [Link removed, site no longer exists]
2. WooMU MultiSite WooCommerce Fork
This is an Open Source project that aims to do just that, a Multi Site and MultiStore version of WooCommerce. Looks promising, since they want to keep compatibility with future releases of WooCommerce but focusing on MultiSite and Multi Store features.
I am contributing to this project right now. They are still in Alpha stage and looking for ideas and to grow the community.
The Beta launch is set for 31 Dec 2015.
Hope this helps :)

While you can network activate plugins, like WooCommerce and it's extensions, you wouldn't be able to share product databases, checkout, user accounts, etc... across the sites in the network at this time.

How Can I keep Selling Out Of Stock Products?

My client has just upgraded to a new POS system that manages stock and overwrites product data on woo/wp, and the client has had trouble with the "manage stock" setting being automatically applied on woo every time she updates a product on the POS system.
the idea of this is the product needs to show as available regardless of what the stock status. ALL products should show 'add to cart and be purchasable REGARDLESS of the stock status. Any idea how can I achieve that?
From the looks of it, this seems like an issue with the POS. I have tested enabling backorders on WooCommerce and was able to backorder products. Please see if you are able to share the code overwriting product data. As this probably shuts off the back order setting again.
My test case>
Product Configuration
Available Backorder
Page when setting is disabled. (what is probably happening to you)
If you are able to share part of the code I will be able to assist you with this issue because by the looks of it this is an issue with custom code and not with WooCommerce itself.
Keep in mind that this does look different from your webshop, as my test server is currently running a default WP theme.

When, precisely, is the stock supposed to be reduced?

I have a WordPress site with a custom template that was not originally made with e-commerce in mind. Now we've added WooCommerce, and, while most stuff is working fine, there's one specific thing that I'm not able to figure out.
We've enabled inventory management under WooCommerce Settings, and individually on some products as well.
But when a product with Stock management enabled is added to a basket, the inventory is not reduced. Not even when the order is completed - the stock is never updated.
Why could this be?

Selling tickets using WordPress + WPML + WooCommerce

I have specific (technical + process) issue on one e-commerce project.
We have fully active and working WordPress + WooCommerce, internationalized with premium WPML plugin (everything setup) + Events plugin for events.
We tried to find premium plugin for selling tickets over WooCommerce, but none of the solutions seems to be WPML complient. Events plugin (create by Modern Tribe) have Event Tickets Plus plugin but it doesn't support WPML (it doesn't work).
Does anyone have idea for a good premium plugin to do this, or some patch or workaround for this business process?
So ticket buying process is somewhat like this:
Read text -> choose ticket type (can be several tickets of different types) -> register people for each ticket – custom fields for every ticket type (or skip this by clicking a button and register later) -> pay (chose payment option and pay for the ticket)
Ideas? :)
Original issue wasn't related to translations, but to fact that Events plugin from Tribe is not working with WPML (it crashes). That is later confirmed by Tribe (plugin creators) and WPML translations aren't a way to fix this.
Anyway, after several days we managed to find a good workaround. I'll describe it here, in case anyone has the same issue (I noticed people are complaining about Event Tickets from Tribe aren't supporting WPML.
So, we did this:
We kept original Event plugin (free version)
We removed Event Ticket and Event Ticket Plus plugins (we don't use
them)
We decided to simulate different Tickets with Product variations
There is category called Ticket. Product is now ticket for one specific event, and each variation is
type for that ticket.
We created separated template for category for Ticket where we
removed all WooCommerce things that we don't need for ticket.
We purchased plugin for presenting variations in table view
and customized it according to our needs.
Now, we have all functionalities that we needed without Tickets plugin from Tribe, everything is WPML ready and we have possibility to customize it even more according to our Use Cases.
Example of our implementation can be found at link:

Woocommerce Custom Orders

I am new to woocommerce plugin development. I am making a website for a taylor, in which it is required to have custom sizes for different shirts, etc. My question is that how could I add the custom functionality like this, in which customers could add their own sizes and we can receive their orders.
I have searched all over the internet but could not find the good resource which could solve my problem. For the reference I am uploading the following image of custom order page
Are these measurements automatically incorporated in the price? or is your system just for taking orders online and the tailor replies with a custom price quote?
Easiest way is to just add this to the checkout process.

Wordpress multi-vendor setup for deals website, allow sellers to maintain deals

I know that Woocommerce has a multi-vendor feature that allows other vendors to sell on your website but I'm looking for specific functionality related to that.
Does anyone know of a plugin/theme that allows vendors to track/fulfill order and most importantly, input tracking for their own orders? I want to create a single page with deals instead of multiple stores.
Yes brother there is a theme " Dokan " which allows the vendor / seller and also admin to track and keep full record !
You can Try Dokan Theme from weDevs http://wedevs.com/theme/dokan/
Its a full featured multivendor ecommerce WordPress app theme based on WooCommerce. Hopefully it will help you.
