The following code extends my previous answer and will add a checkbox in WooCommerce > coupon section enabling any coupon code to be "mandatory" for specific defined items:
So this way you will not have to define any coupon code in a function.
The whole code:
// Add a custom checkbox to Admin coupon settings pages
add_action( 'woocommerce_coupon_options', 'add_coupon_option_checkbox', 10 );
function add_coupon_option_checkbox() {
woocommerce_wp_checkbox( array(
'id' => 'items_mandatory',
'label' => __( 'Force specific items', 'woocommerce' ),
'description' => __( 'Make this coupon mandatory for specific items.', 'woocommerce' ),
'desc_tip' => false,
) );
}
// Save the custom checkbox value from Admin coupon settings pages
add_action( 'woocommerce_coupon_options_save', 'save_coupon_option_checkbox', 10, 2 );
function save_coupon_option_checkbox( $post_id, $coupon ) {
update_post_meta( $post_id, 'items_mandatory', isset( $_POST['items_mandatory'] ) ? 'yes' : 'no' );
}
add_action( 'woocommerce_check_cart_items', 'mandatory_coupon_for_specific_items' );
function mandatory_coupon_for_specific_items() {
$targeted_ids = array(37); // The targeted product ids (in this array)
$applied_coupons = WC()->cart->get_applied_coupons();
$coupon_applied = false;
if( sizeof($applied_coupons) > 0 ) {
// Loop through applied coupons
foreach( $applied_coupons as $coupon_code ) {
$coupon = new WC_Coupon( $coupon_code );
if( $coupon->get_meta('items_mandatory') === 'yes' ) {
$coupon_applied = true;
break;
}
}
}
// Loop through cart items
foreach(WC()->cart->get_cart() as $cart_item ) {
// Check cart item for defined product Ids and applied coupon
if( in_array( $cart_item['product_id'], $targeted_ids ) && ! $coupon_applied ) {
wc_clear_notices(); // Clear all other notices
// Avoid checkout displaying an error notice
wc_add_notice( sprintf( 'The product"%s" requires a coupon for checkout.', $cart_item['data']->get_name() ), 'error' );
break; // stop the loop
}
}
}
Code goes in functions.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.
And in checkout:
