WooCommerce

ShopperQuiz connects to WooCommerce using REST API keys — a Consumer Key and Consumer Secret you generate in your WordPress admin. There is no OAuth redirect. Once connected, ShopperQuiz syncs your products, categories, and tags and keeps them up to date via webhooks.

One store per account​

Each ShopperQuiz account connects to one store only — either Shopify or WooCommerce, never both simultaneously. If you run multiple WooCommerce stores, create a separate ShopperQuiz account for each one.

Generating API keys​

ShopperQuiz needs Read/Write access to your WooCommerce store. To generate the keys:

  1. In your WordPress admin, go to WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced → REST API
  2. Click Add key
  3. Set a description (e.g. "ShopperQuiz"), set permissions to Read/Write, and click Generate API key
  4. Copy the Consumer Key (ck_…) and Consumer Secret (cs_…) — you'll need both in the next step

The Consumer Secret is only shown once. If you lose it, delete the key and generate a new one.

Connecting your store​

In your ShopperQuiz dashboard, go to Integrations in the sidebar. In the WooCommerce card, enter:

  • Your WordPress site URL (e.g. https://yourstore.com)
  • Your Consumer Key (ck_…)
  • Your Consumer Secret (cs_…)

Click Connect WooCommerce. ShopperQuiz will verify the credentials and connect. Your products, categories, and tags will start syncing in the background — this usually takes under a minute.

Product sync​

Once connected, ShopperQuiz syncs your full product catalog — products, categories, and tags — into its own database. This cached copy powers the right panel in the Quiz Builder and the voting engine at runtime.

The initial sync runs automatically after connecting. After that, your catalog stays up to date via WooCommerce webhooks — when you add, update, or remove products, categories, or tags, the changes propagate to ShopperQuiz automatically.

If you need to force a full re-sync, click Sync now on the WooCommerce card in Integrations. The sync counts are shown on the card so you can verify everything came through.

Managing your connection​

Click Manage on the WooCommerce card to open a side drawer with:

  • Store details — store name, URL, and last synced time
  • Synced data counts — products, categories, and tags
  • Open WordPress Admin — a quick link to your WP admin
  • Disconnect store — removes the API key connection. Your quizzes and all quiz data are kept intact. You can reconnect at any time by entering new API keys.
  • Disconnect & delete all quiz data — permanently removes the connection and deletes all your quizzes, questions, answers, and synced product data. This cannot be undone. You'll be asked to type DELETE to confirm.
