The page provides a preferred source field. It is used if the source attribute is omitted in shortcodes as it is done in the default My Account page content to be generic. We strongly encourage to always set the source attribute to your shortcode.

Here are listed all plugins that embed the Payout module.

If your plugin or any expected reference is not listed here, look at the plugin system page if you have to enable the payout feature first.

For each plugin, you can find:

  • The plugin reference : few plugin can provide several rows (WooRewards add-on lists one row per loyalty system). It help you identify what the row is talking about.
  • The source shortcode attribute : you have to set a source attribute in each Payout shortcode you used. Even if only one installed plugin embed the Payout module. It is a better habit to specify where the user’s amount comes from.
  • The conversion rate : In most cases, the source plugin is about money and rate is 1 to 1 (default value). But what about loyalty points or gems? Here you can setup a conversion value.
If your payout is in Euro, then the ratio value multiplied by the transferred euro amount will be the value in plugin unit.
You can setup your preferred source for the user’s amounts between all installed plugins. This is read for fallback source value, as used in default content of the My-Account page. However, we recommend to always set the source attribute for every payout shortcodes.
