Is it possible to migrate existing purchases to PPV?

Robert S. 2 years ago

We have a ton of existing purchases in WooCommerce from our previous configuration.

We’re trying to implement FV Player PPV now and would like to migrate our existing customers’ purchases to FV Player PPV.

I feel like there might be some database work in this, and I’m willing to go that route, if it’s possible, we don’t have a huge number of products (videos) so maybe it’s just some ID changes in the db?

Thanks

Hello Robert,

unfortunately the WooCommerce database structure is a bit complex, so this might not be too easy.

Also, FV Player Pay Per View does not provide much additional interface when it comes to the history of purchases. It’s more or less just the “Watch full video” link on the order page as seen here:

And then of course FV Player let the user watch the full video:

The adjustments to do are:
- link the WooCommerce product to the FV Player instance using wp_fv_playermeta table using the ppv_wc_id meta_key
- link the FV Player ID to to WooCommerce product using the fv_player_ppv_player_id meta_key in post meta
- setup WooCommerce product pricing variations for video rental/purchase – this is the worst of all as each variation is actually additional entry in wp_posts (custom post type)
Please let us know if you have a programmer working on your project who could handle this or if you need help.

Thanks,
Martin
