Drip Content for WooCommerce

Drip Content for WooCommerce is a lightweight plugin for creators, trainers, and course owners who want to unlock content gradually for their customers.

Instead of complex LMS systems, this plugin gives you just the essentials:

• 🎯 Restrict pages, posts, or custom content by purchase.
• ⏱ Release content step by step with drip (days after purchase).
• 📅 Use time-limited windows (open/close dates).
• 👥 Start content for all users on a cohort date (e.g. course launch).
• 🧩 Simple shortcodes: [dripco_if_purchased], [dripco_if_not_purchased], [dripco_open], [dripco_close], and more.

Perfect for:
– Online courses (drip lessons week by week).
– Memberships and communities.
– Group programs, challenges, or events.

✨ Unlike heavy LMS or membership plugins that slow down your site, Drip Content for WooCommerce is built to stay fast, minimal and focused.
No unnecessary bloat – just clean WooCommerce integration, so your website remains smooth and responsive even with many users.

👉 Documentation, examples and use cases:

Works with shortcodes:
– [dripco_if_purchased]…[/dripco_if_purchased],
– [dripco_if_not_purchased]…[/dripco_if_not_purchased],
– [dripco_open] + [dripco_close] for rich layouts.

Free version features

• Unlock content linked to a WooCommerce product purchase.
• Delay (drip) up to 7 days from purchase.
• 1 product per rule, with up to 3 drip slots per product.
• Simple before/after messages for locked content.
  Upgrade to PRO version for unlimited usage, cohorts, precise anchors, diagnostics and no internal caps.
  

Pro adds: cohorts (even without product), precise time anchors (paid/completed/created), diagnostics, and no internal caps.

Quick Start

1. Make sure WooCommerce is active.
2. Create or edit a product that grants access to your content.
3. Find your product ID (in the WooCommerce product list or from the URL when editing the product).

4. Add a page or post with this shortcode:

   [dripco_if_purchased
   product_id=”123″
   drip_days=”7″
   message=”You need to purchase this product to access the content.”
   message_before=”This lesson will open on {opens_at} (in {opens_in}).”
   message_after=”The access period for this lesson has ended.”
   message_login=”Please log in to see your purchased content.”]

Welcome to Lesson 1: This content becomes available 7 days after purchase.

[/dripco_if_purchased]

How it works:
– message — shown when access cannot be established (no qualifying order, or strict condition failed).
– message_before — shown before the drip window opens (supports tokens {opens_at} and {opens_in}).
– message_after — shown after the drip window closes (if time-limited).
– message_login — shown to non-logged-in users (takes priority over message).

1. Save the page and view it as a user who bought the product to see the drip delay and messages in action.

Usage

• Use [dripco_if_purchased product_id="123" drip_days="7"]…[/dripco_if_purchased].
  Use markers [dripco_open ...] … [dripco_close] to span complex layouts.
• Tokens: {opens_at}, {opens_in}.

1. Upload the plugin files to /wp-content/plugins/drip-content-for-woocommerce/
2. Activate the plugin in WordPress → Plugins menu.
3. Use the provided shortcodes in your content.
