Hi, we are using B2BKing along with WP-WooCommerce, it is a fantastic tool and you have done a really great job comparing to all other wholesale plugins. But please see below some suggestions for further improvements.
1. In product page, when we provide the dynamic pricing panel, if we also want to show the price for 1 item it comes up as “1-1”. While for a quantity from 2 to 5 items it comes as “2-5”. The idea is great but many people I’ve asked (especially the ones who are not very familiar with online deals seem to struggle understanding the “1-1”. I mean if this was just “1” or “0-1” or “1 item” that would be much more understandable.
2. When the pricing-offers table rows are clickable, and as an example a user clicks on “2-5”, the quantity-to-buy goes automatically to the highest “5” items, not to “2”. However this doesn’t give the best user experience (and believe me it won’t maximise sales) as most likely the user will buy the smaller quantity of the next lower pricing deal rather that the highest, simply because with adding just one more item they can get the next tier’s lower pricing, if you get me what I mean. So we need an option to make the quantity to go automatically to either the lowest quantity or to average quantity. Definitely not to the highest quantity.
3. We are using your plug-in for both B2C and B2B clients. However we should show prices to B2C clients including VAT (according to trading laws), while B2B clients are professionals usually from large trading business who are only talking about cost without VAT, so we should show them the prices and next to that “excl.VAT”. This is currently not possible with the plug-in. I believe that this would be a must have option.
4. When making a registration form for our B2B users at the country selection field, countries come alphabetically. There is no option to have a chosen country as the first choice (WooCommerce and other forms do that). Adding this option would be very helpful, improving users’ usability, as most of our clients are from the UK so they won’t need to scroll down and look for United Kingdom (or other sellers domestic country).
Hi Stefan, I hope you're doing well. Just to let you know that our developer has tried to change the country selection at the form (having United Kingdom at first place) but unfortunately your suggestion didn’t work for us. Please see here:
I am not sure why that is - it did work for me in tests. Perhaps there is something in your theme or something else affecting this.
I'd be happy to check it directly on your site if you'd like, and try to get this working. For that, I would need a backend login to the site, or a staging clone site, so I can look into this,
I tried looking into this now and I can login to the website, but I'm not able to access plugins or snippets (Seems my user doesn't have the permissions). This is what I see:
I need to be able to access the Plugins page, or at the very least the code snippets plugin so I can edit / add custom code in order to get that country dropdown snippet working.
It would be great if you could temporarily give my user an Administrator role so I can look into that issue,

Hello Nektarios,
Thank you for your feedback,
(1) I've implemented your suggestion:
This will be added to the next official update, but I will also attach it here if you want to update manually right now.
(2) While I see your point, I think most of our plugin customers would complain if we made that the lowest quantity instead of the highest.
We will consider adding an option for it / code snippet, but it is a bit complex because the scripts need to be changed.
(3) This is already possible with our plugin.
Please see https://woocommerce-b2b-plugin.com/docs/how-to-display-prices-excluding-tax-for-b2b-users-and-including-tax-for-b2c-users/ for how to show prices inc VAT for B2C and ex vat for B2B.
You can also set the "excl. incl." suffix through the setting in B2BKing -> Settings -> Other -> Modify VAT suffix automatically
(4) You can add this PHP code snippet to your site:
add_filter('woocommerce_sort_countries', '__return_false'); add_filter( 'woocommerce_countries', 'change_country_order_in_checkout_form' ); function change_country_order_in_checkout_form($countries) { $uk = $countries['GB']; unset($countries["GB"]); return array('GB' => $uk ) + $countries; }It will help show the UK first in the list:
A PHP snippet can be added to functions.php, or by following our guide here: https://woocommerce-b2b-plugin.com/docs/how-to-add-a-snippet-php-or-js/
Kind regards,
Stefan
Amazing, many thanks for your support! I'll forward these to our developer.
