<p><strong>Note: You MUST have WooCommerce installed and activated for this plugin to work. WC 3.0+ compliant</strong></p>
<p>WC Map Guest Orders and Downloads does exactly what the title says. We’ve all had customers order something from our site, and then later decide to create an account. Especially with downloadable products, this can cause an issue where logged in users can’t view their past orders or downloads. We address this here by checking the billing e-mail address on past guest orders when an account is created or a user logs in, and if it matches the e-mail set on the user account, the appropriate orders and downloads are mapped to the new account.</p>
<p>This is a simple little plugin, with no settings, no options, just install, activate, and go!</p>

Guest Author

In my case I needed something that would create the admin part an I can then use it on my custom theme. Definitely saved me some time to create my own custom meta boxes for the posts. Needed only to customize the single post template page to show the guest meta information.

Works perfect


The plugin works as advertised and is quite simple and handy. I have one request though. These days nofollowing the URL might be suitable for some admins. So it is missing.


Feature request: nofollow the guest author URL
