How to integrate NotifyVisitors with WooCommerce

  1. There are essentially two methods to integrate your NotifyVisitors account with WooCommerce.

Method I

Integrate via your WooCommerce-powered WordPress website or online store

  1. Process described in step nos. 1 to 5 is illustrated in the GIF provided below.
  1. Visit your WooCommerce website and login to your Admin Dashboard.
  2. Next, navigate to your account’s Dashboard > Plugins > Add New.
  3. Search for the NofifyVisitors plugin via the 'Search Bar' by typing in the keyword 'NotifyVisitors'.
  4. The NotifyVisitors plugin will get filtered out from all the available plugins. Click on the 'Install Now' button in order to install the plugin on your WordPress website.

📘

Note

There exists an alternate method/process to install the NotifyVisitors plugin that is described in the next section.

  1. Once the plugin gets installed successfully, an 'Activate' button would appear exactly where the 'Install Now' button existed. Click on that ‘Activate’ button in order to activate the NotifyVisitors plugin on your website/store.
  1. Once the plugin is activated, it will get listed towards the end of your WordPress account’s navigation pane (as shown in the screenshot provided below).

📘

Note

Although the plugin has been activated, your WordPress website or online store still isn’t integrated with your NotifyVisitors account. Proceed as follows to do the same.

  1. Navigate to your WordPress account’s Dashboard > NotifyVisitors plugin, in order to finally connect your store with your NotifyVisitors account.
  2. Click on the button titled 'Connect Your Account'.

Once the pop-up disappears, you will be redirected back to your WooCommerce-powered online store, which in turn would also display a confirmation affirming successful integration.
  1. Next, click on the button titled 'Connected', in order to configure your WooCommerce integration from within your NotifyVisitors account i.e. toggle tracking of specific WooCommerce events on/off.
