To use WooCommerce functions outside of WordPress, you can follow these steps:

  1. Include the necessary WordPress files: You will need to include the WordPress core file, as well as the WooCommerce plugin file in your PHP script. You can do this by adding the following code at the beginning of your script:
1
2
3
require_once('/path/to/wordpress/wp-load.php');
require_once('/path/to/wordpress/wp-includes/plugin.php');
require_once('/path/to/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/woocommerce.php');


Make sure to replace "/path/to/wordpress" with the actual path to your WordPress installation.

  1. Initialize WooCommerce: Once you have included the necessary files, you can initialize WooCommerce by adding the following code:
1
2
global $woocommerce;
$woocommerce = new WC_API_Client( $consumer_key, $consumer_secret, $store_url, $is_ssl );


Replace $consumer_key, $consumer_secret, $store_url, and $is_ssl with your WooCommerce API credentials.

  1. Use WooCommerce functions: You can now use WooCommerce functions in your PHP script. For example, you can retrieve product data using the following code:
1
2
$products = $woocommerce->get_products();
print_r($products);


You can find a list of available WooCommerce functions and methods in the WooCommerce documentation.


By following these steps, you can easily use WooCommerce functions outside of WordPress in your PHP scripts.
