CodaScan for WooCommerce — complete setup guide
Install the WordPress plugin on your store, pair a warehouse phone, and capture packing photos even without internet. CodaScan attaches them to the matching WooCommerce order when connectivity returns.
Download the WordPress plugin
Install this ZIP on any WordPress store running WooCommerce. Upload it under Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, then activate CodaScan for WooCommerce.
Requires WordPress 6.0+, WooCommerce 8.0+, and HTTPS on production stores.
Before you start, you will need
- A CodaScan account (free trial available)
- The CodaScan app on an iPhone or Android phone (used in the warehouse)
- WordPress admin access on the store where WooCommerce is installed
- WooCommerce 8.0 or newer, with HTTPS enabled on production stores
How it works (big picture)
1. Install the plugin
Upload and activate CodaScan for WooCommerce on your WordPress store.
2. Pair your phone
Open WooCommerce → CodaScan in WordPress admin and scan the pairing QR code on the warehouse device.
3. Scan & photograph
Staff scan or enter the order number, take photos online or offline, and CodaScan attaches the queued images to that WooCommerce order.
Tip: the mobile app talks directly to your store REST API. No CodaScan backend credentials are stored in WordPress.
Registros visuales fiables, dondequiera que se trabaje
Pedidos · lotes · productos · activos · inspecciones
Captura la evidencia adecuada
Vincula fotos a un código de barras, código QR o referencia introducida manualmente mientras el producto, lote, activo, envío o inspección todavía está delante de ti.
Sigue trabajando sin conexión
¿No hay cobertura? Sigue documentando. CodaScan guarda el trabajo en el dispositivo y reanuda las cargas automáticamente cuando vuelve internet.
Encuentra cada registro sin buscar
Las fotos llegan al pedido de Shopify correspondiente o a la estructura de SharePoint configurada, en lugar de quedar dispersas entre teléfonos, mensajes y carpetas.
Reduce pruebas incompletas y tareas administrativas
Un proceso de captura coherente simplifica el trabajo de los equipos operativos y proporciona registros más limpios y completos a los equipos de oficina.
Setup guide — follow in order
Part A — Get CodaScan on your warehouse phone
Do this first on the phone your team will use to take photos.
Create a CodaScan account
On your computer, go to getcodascan.com and create an account. Complete checkout or start a trial so you have an active license.
Install the CodaScan mobile app
On the warehouse phone, install CodaScan from the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play (Android).
Activate the license on that phone
Open the activation link from your CodaScan account (or scan the QR code from your account page). The app will register that phone to your license.
Part B — Install CodaScan on WordPress
This connects your WooCommerce store to CodaScan so photos can be saved on each order.
Download the plugin ZIP
Use the download button at the top of this page, or run make publish-woocommerce from the CodaScan repository if you build from source.
Upload in WordPress admin
Go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, choose codascan-woocommerce.zip, then Install Now and Activate Plugin.
Confirm WooCommerce is active
CodaScan for WooCommerce requires WooCommerce. Install or activate WooCommerce first if it is not already running.
Part C — Configure and pair devices
Review storage settings and connect licensed warehouse phones.
Open WooCommerce → CodaScan
Review order meta key, order number format, order notes, and photo storage (WordPress media library or Amazon S3).
Pair the warehouse phone
Scan the pairing QR code shown in WordPress admin, or open the pairing link on the device.
- On the phone: open CodaScan → Settings → WooCommerce.
- Scan the QR code or enter the store URL and pairing code manually.
- Tap Pair. When it succeeds, the phone is linked to your store.
Save the WooCommerce workflow
Choose how order numbers are matched, camera quality, and whether local deletions remove the WooCommerce file. Save the configuration with a clear name.
Part D — Capture photos in the warehouse
Select the WooCommerce workflow
In CodaScan, choose the saved WooCommerce configuration before starting a shift.
Scan or enter the order number
Use the barcode on your packing slip, a QR code, or manual entry for the WooCommerce order number.
Take photos and sync
Capture as many photos as needed. If the connection drops, uploads stay queued and resume automatically when the phone is back online.
Test the workflow
Place a test order, pair a phone, capture one photo, and confirm it appears on the order in WooCommerce admin with a proof link in order notes (if enabled).
