外掛說明
DreamFox Purchase Limits for WooCommerce gives you full control over how many units customers can buy. Enforce a minimum order quantity, cap the maximum, force sales in fixed increments (packs of 6, 12, …), and set minimum/maximum limits on the whole cart — item count and order amount alike.
Every rule is enforced on the product page quantity stepper, at add-to-cart, on the cart page and again at checkout, with clear, fully customizable notices so customers always know what to do. Works with both the classic (shortcode) cart/checkout and the Cart & Checkout blocks.
Free features
- Minimum quantity – require customers to buy at least a set number of units, per product.
- Maximum quantity – cap how many units of a product can be purchased.
- Step / increment rules – force purchases in multiples (packs of 6, 12, or any custom step).
- Per-variation rules – set independent min/max/step on each variation of a variable product.
- Per-category rules – apply limits to a whole product category, with the most restrictive rule winning.
- Per-tag rules – apply limits to a whole product tag, with the most restrictive rule winning.
- Amount (spend) limits – set a minimum/maximum line total (price × quantity) per product, variation, category or tag.
- Storewide defaults – one min/max/step and min/max amount applied to every product unless overridden.
- Cart item-count limits – require a minimum or enforce a maximum number of items per order.
- Cart order-amount limits – set a minimum or maximum order subtotal before checkout.
- Cart distinct-product limits – require a minimum or cap the maximum number of different products per order.
- Category cart totals – require a minimum or cap the maximum combined quantity, amount and number of different products of a whole category in the cart.
- Role-based rules – override the storewide defaults and cart limits per user role (wholesale, VIP, members …); the most restrictive of a user’s roles applies.
- Minimum after discount – optionally check order-amount limits against the discounted total instead of the subtotal.
- Exclude individual products – flag a product (gift cards, samples, …) to ignore every limit, including category, tag and storewide rules.
- Disable rules per category or tag – flag a category or tag so its products ignore all limits.
- Product-page hint – optionally show the minimum, maximum and step on the product page so customers see the rule before they hit an error.
- Smart quantity stepper – the product and cart quantity inputs respect the min, max and step automatically.
- Cart-aware validation – limits account for what a customer already has in the cart.
- Role exemptions – let chosen roles (e.g. wholesale buyers) bypass all limits.
- Customizable notices – rewrite every message with placeholders like {product}, {min}, {max}, {step}, {qty} and {amount}.
- Priority resolution – variation product category tag storewide default, so the most specific rule always wins.
- HPOS compatible – declares full High-Performance Order Storage support.
- Cart & Checkout blocks compatible – declares full support for the block-based Cart and Checkout, alongside the classic shortcode-based cart and checkout.
- Translation ready – all strings are localizable.
Rule priority
For any product the effective limit is resolved in this order, most specific first:
- Variation
- Product
- Category (most restrictive when a product is in several)
- Tag (most restrictive when a product has several)
- Storewide default
A product flagged as excluded skips all of the above and has no limits.

常見問題集
-
Can I force customers to buy in packs of 6?
-
Yes. Set the Step (increment) to 6 on the product (or storewide). Customers can then only buy 6, 12, 18, and so on. Combine it with a minimum for a starting pack size.
-
Which rule wins if a product has both product and category limits?
-
The most specific rule wins: variation over product, product over category, category over tag, and tag over the storewide default. Each of minimum, maximum and step is resolved independently.
-
Can I set limits on a product tag?
-
Yes. Edit any product tag (Products Tags) and set its minimum, maximum and step, just like categories. Category rules take priority over tag rules when both apply.
-
How do I stop a specific product from having any limit?
-
Open the product, go to the Inventory tab and tick Exclude from limits. That product will ignore every rule — product, category, tag and storewide. You can also disable rules for a whole category or tag from its edit screen.
-
Can I limit spend rather than quantity?
-
Yes. Every level (product, variation, category, tag and storewide) supports a minimum and maximum line amount (price × quantity), alongside the quantity rules.
-
Can I require a minimum quantity or spend for a whole category across the cart?
-
Yes. Edit a product category and set its Cart minimum/maximum quantity and Cart minimum/maximum amount. The plugin sums every item from that category in the cart and enforces the limits at checkout.
-
Can I limit how many different products are in an order?
-
Yes. Under WooCommerce Quantity Rules Cart limits set a minimum and/or maximum number of distinct products, either storewide or per category.
-
Can I set different limits for wholesale or VIP customers?
-
Yes. Under WooCommerce Quantity Rules Role-based rules you can override the storewide defaults and cart limits for any user role. When a customer has several roles, the most restrictive rule applies. You can also fully exempt a role from all limits.
-
Can the order-amount limit use the price after discounts?
-
Yes. Enable Order amount basis after discounts in the Cart limits section to check the minimum/maximum order amount against the discounted total rather than the subtotal.
-
What happens when a product is in several categories with different limits?
-
The most restrictive category rule is used: the highest minimum, the lowest maximum and the largest step.
-
Can some customers bypass the limits?
-
Yes. Under WooCommerce Quantity Rules Role exemptions you can let specific roles (such as wholesale buyers) purchase any quantity.
-
Are the limits enforced at checkout?
-
Yes. Rules are checked on the product page, at add-to-cart, on the cart page and again during the checkout validation step, so invalid quantities can never slip through.
-
Is the plugin compatible with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?
-
Yes, the plugin declares full HPOS compatibility.
-
Does this work with the block-based Cart and Checkout?
-
Yes. The plugin declares full compatibility with the Cart and Checkout blocks. Add-to-cart is blocked immediately with the same customizable message you configure for classic checkout. A rule broken while editing quantities in the Cart block is shown as a clear notice and still prevents checkout until it’s resolved, exactly like the classic flow.

變更記錄
1.1.0
- Verified and declared compatibility with the WooCommerce Cart & Checkout blocks (Store API), after testing against a live WordPress 7.0.4 / WooCommerce 11.0.1 install with blocks active. Add-to-cart and cart-item quantity limits (including step/increment) are enforced the same way they are under classic checkout; amount and cart-wide/category total rules are enforced as a blocking checkout notice.
- Updated “WC tested up to” to 11.0.1 and WordPress “Tested up to” to 7.0.4.
1.0.5
- Fix: text domain now matches the plugin’s registered WordPress.org slug (dreamfox-purchase-limits-for-woocommerce), per plugin review feedback — translations load correctly again. Display name is unchanged.
1.0.4
- Renamed to DreamFox Purchase Limits for WooCommerce (was Quantity Rules for WooCommerce), per WordPress.org plugin review feedback on name distinctiveness.
