Description

Live demo (no install needed): Explore the full BrikPanel admin on a real WooCommerce store

BrikPanel turns the default WooCommerce admin panel into a clean, fast, all-in-one cockpit: a modern WooCommerce dashboard, a real-time WooCommerce sales report, a powerful WooCommerce bulk editor, an inventory management workspace, an order management center, a coupon manager, a custom WP login page, and a real-time conversion tracking suite. Everything is free. Forever. No premium tier, no feature locks, no monthly subscriptions. A self-hosted Shopify alternative for WooCommerce: own your data, your products, and your customer list, with no monthly platform fee and no transaction fee.

Who is BrikPanel for?

  • Store owners who want a modern WooCommerce dashboard with real numbers, not the slow built-in reports, and a self-hosted WooCommerce analytics solution instead of paying monthly fees to external SaaS tools
  • Stores that want a lighter woocommerce inventory management workspace built into a complete admin redesign
  • Anyone who needs to bulk edit WooCommerce products, including variations, without a premium plugin
  • Agencies handing off stores to non-technical clients who need a simplified WooCommerce admin
  • Shop owners migrating from Shopify who want a familiar, modern admin for their WooCommerce store, a free, self-hosted Shopify alternative

What you get (all free)

Modern WooCommerce Dashboard & Sales Report with Real-Time Analytics

The heart of BrikPanel is a modern WooCommerce dashboard, a true woocommerce admin panel plugin, not a styling layer.

  • Total Sales, Total Orders, Average Order Value (AOV): today, yesterday, last 7/30 days, or any custom range, with ±% period-over-period delta on every metric
  • Visitors counted from your own database (admins excluded), and Conversion Rate computed live from real visitors and real orders
  • Beautiful sales chart powered by Chart.js, plus an order status donut (Successful, Failed, Returns & Refunds, Cancelled)
  • WooCommerce conversion funnel: Visitors Product Views Add to Cart Checkout Orders, with counts at every step

This is a complete WooCommerce sales report and reporting layer: real-time sales reports, charts and KPIs inside a modern WooCommerce admin, with no external analytics service.

Customer Analytics: LTV, RFM Segmentation & Cohort Retention

BrikPanel ships a complete WooCommerce customer analytics suite, calculated from your store data and visualized in the dashboard, no external service.

  • Customer Lifetime Value (LTV): total customers, average and top LTV, full LTV distribution histogram, and a ranked top-customers table
  • RFM segmentation: every customer scored on Recency, Frequency, and Monetary, then bucketed into segments like Champions, Loyal Customers, At Risk, About to Sleep, Hibernating, and Lost, with average LTV and orders per segment
  • Cohort retention: month-by-month cohort retention grid plus an average retention by month-offset trend line
  • Advanced filtering and segmentation: combine spend range, product, location, date and more to build segments for both customers and orders

Live Visitors & Real-Time Conversion Tracking

BrikPanel ships a built-in WooCommerce live visitors widget, see who is on your store right now, what page they are on, and whether they have items in the cart. Refreshes every 30 seconds by default (configurable). No external service, no Hotjar, no monthly fee.

  • WooCommerce real time visitors widget with cart status (Browsing / Added to Cart / Order Received), current page, and customer info
  • WooCommerce conversion tracking in the same database that powers the dashboard
  • Visitor IPs are never stored by tracking, only a salted SHA-256 hash, and live visitor data stays in a short-lived cache, never permanently in the database
  • Privacy switches: make tracking wait for cookie consent (WordPress Consent API or your own banner), turn front-end tracking off entirely, or keep it on while excluding logged-in customer details from the Live view
  • Most-viewed pages and most added-to-cart products reports

A free woocommerce statistics plugin and woocommerce sales tracker without any external SaaS.

Geographic Analytics: WooCommerce Sales by Country

A 3D rotating globe (Cobe.js) plots the countries your orders come from, see WooCommerce sales by country and city without exporting a CSV, with Top 5 Countries and Top 5 Cities tables. Works with both HPOS and legacy order storage.

Lightning-Fast Order Search: Cmd/Ctrl + K from Anywhere

Hit Ctrl + K (or Cmd + K on Mac) anywhere in wp-admin and an order search overlay opens, the free woocommerce order search plugin. Searches order ID, customer name, email, phone and product SKU inside line items at once. True woocommerce quick search, with results as you type, status badges and dates.

Modern WooCommerce Order Management

BrikPanel replaces the cluttered default orders page with a clean woocommerce order list plugin screen.

  • 30-day overview bar: total orders, completed, refunded, revenue
  • Inline status change without opening the edit page
  • HPOS (wc_get_orders) and legacy storage (WP_Query) both supported
  • Create your own order statuses, like Return Draft or Change
  • Reskinned order edit page with copy-to-clipboard for billing/shipping
  • Sold downloadable products on the order edit page
  • Optional BrikMarket marketplace stats integration

A real woocommerce order management plugin, not a reskin. Disable from settings anytime.

WooCommerce Product List Plugin: Built for People Who Actually Edit Products

The default WooCommerce product list is fine for browsing, painful for editing. BrikPanel ships a complete woocommerce product list plugin that fixes it.

  • Thumbnail, name, SKU, regular/sale price, stock badge, category
  • Publish status toggle: flip draft published with one click, no reload
  • Edit, Duplicate, Delete actions; bulk publish, draft, delete
  • Status tabs (All / Published / Draft / Trash), live search by name or SKU
  • Configurable per-page (5–100, default 20), AJAX pagination
  • Per-user toggles for any third-party / SEO column added by Yoast, Rank Math, ASE and other plugins
  • Admin and Site Enhancements (ASE) custom columns are respected in the BrikPanel product, order and coupon lists

Quick Edit Sidebar: Edit Without Leaving the List

A slide-in panel from any product row to edit name, SKU, regular/sale price, stock and category, saved without leaving the list. The woocommerce quick edit WooCommerce should have shipped years ago: update woocommerce quick edit price, stock or category in two clicks.

Bulk Edit WooCommerce Products with the Variation Editor: Full Variation Support

This is where BrikPanel pulls ahead of almost every other free woocommerce bulk editor. Most free plugins only handle simple products and only “increase price by X%”. BrikPanel does far more, on variable products too.

  • WooCommerce bulk price update (regular and sale): percentage, absolute value, or rounding, across the whole published catalog or filtered by category
  • Bulk update WooCommerce products stock quantities (set quantity, add/subtract)
  • WooCommerce bulk price by category: pick a category, set a rule, every published product updates
  • WooCommerce bulk sale price updates (fixed or % off)
  • Confirmation dialog on every bulk action

Now the part almost nobody else does for free: variation support.

  • WooCommerce variation editor: open any variable product and edit every variation in one table (regular price, sale price, stock, SKU)
  • Bulk edit variation prices WooCommerce: set the same price for all variations of an attribute (every “Red” variation, every “L” size), or apply a percentage rule
  • Bulk update variation stock: set or adjust the stock of every variation in one click
  • Attribute filter to narrow bulk updates to matching variations when a product has 50+ combinations

How to bulk edit WooCommerce products including variations without buying a $79/year plugin? BrikPanel handles both simple and variable products for free.

Simplified WooCommerce Product Editor

The default WooCommerce add-product screen has 11 metaboxes, 7 tabs and 40+ fields. BrikPanel ships a complete woocommerce product editor plugin with the noise removed.

  • Featured image + product gallery with drag-and-drop upload, unlimited images, drag-to-reorder
  • Regular price, sale price with decimal validation
  • Searchable category picker with multi-select + quick create category without leaving the page
  • Brand field: the WooCommerce product_brand taxonomy is now first-class alongside categories and tags
  • Short description + full rich-text description
  • SEO fields: custom slug, meta title, meta description (SEO plugin needed), live Google SERP preview
  • Full SEO plugin compatibility: Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO and SEOPress metaboxes (including the SEO score panel) render and save inside the BrikPanel product editor
  • Product type (Simple, Variable), attribute management with inline create
  • Auto-generate variations from attribute combinations, per-variation price/sale/SKU/stock
  • Duplicate any product in one click

On by default. Keep the default WooCommerce product page if you prefer.

WooCommerce Variation Gallery

Attach a separate image gallery to each product variation, the frontend swaps gallery automatically when a customer picks a variation. Image metadata (srcset, sizes, alt text) is fully preserved.

WooCommerce Categories Page: Drag-and-Drop Parent/Child Management

BrikPanel rebuilds the dated WooCommerce category screen with per-page settings (5 to 200) for both product_cat and product_tag, and drag-and-drop parent/child nesting with circular reference prevention (categories and brands).

Best WooCommerce Coupon Plugin: Free Coupon Manager

A complete WooCommerce coupon manager that makes coupons first-class in the admin, and we think the best WooCommerce coupon plugin in the free repository.

  • Coupon table with code, discount type, amount, usage count, expiry highlighting, and status
  • Status tabs, AJAX pagination, slide-over coupon panel: create/edit without a reload
  • Auto-generate random coupon codes; one-click duplicate
  • Discount types: percentage, fixed cart, fixed product + free shipping toggle
  • Expiry date picker, total + per-customer usage limits, min/max spend, individual use toggle, product/category include/exclude rules

WooCommerce Cart Abandonment & Cart Recovery

A built-in WooCommerce cart abandonment and cart recovery system, with no external email SaaS. A dedicated Abandoned Carts screen captures the checkout email of shoppers who do not finish (classic and block checkout, plus logged-in add-to-cart) and snapshots each cart down to the exact variation. Carts move Active to Abandoned to Recovered automatically, and an optional popup hands each subscriber a single-use cart recovery coupon. Search and date filters, plus CSV / Excel export.

Custom WordPress Login Page: Custom WP Login Page for WooCommerce

A custom WP login page that fully replaces the default wp-login.php look, a real WordPress login customizer for WooCommerce stores.

  • Centered card layout with your logo and an optional site name heading
  • Minimal, distraction-free fields, optional AJAX submission (no reload) with toast notification on errors
  • Optional footer site branding
  • Default WordPress login styles fully hidden

WooCommerce Inventory Management

A complete woocommerce inventory management workspace: the product list, bulk editor, variation editor and quick edit sidebar work together as one inventory workflow.

  • Current stock for every product and variation in one place, with stock badges in the product list (in stock / low stock / out of stock)
  • Update stock inline from the quick edit sidebar, or bulk update across categories and variations
  • HPOS-enabled stores supported

A free woocommerce inventory management plugin that covers the daily workflow, no heavy stock control plugin needed.

Custom Top Admin Bar & Notifications

A Custom BrikPanel-styled top admin bar replaces the default WordPress toolbar with an e-commerce notification bell and quick links, toggleable from settings. Sound, confetti and a popup the moment a paid order arrives.

Google Sheets Sync: Real-Time WooCommerce Google Sheets Integration

BrikPanel ships a free WooCommerce Google Sheets sync, a fully native WooCommerce to Google Sheets integration that streams orders, customers and analytics into a Google Sheet you control. The free GSheetConnector alternative with no Zapier, no Make, no monthly fee.

  • Real-time order sync: every new WooCommerce order is appended within seconds, one row per order or line item so variations get their own rows. Free woocommerce order sync to google sheets with no external automation tool
  • Scheduled WooCommerce Google Sheets export: hourly, every 4h or daily catch-up; idempotent so re-runs never duplicate rows
  • Analytics report snapshots: Sales Summary, Daily KPIs, Top Products and Funnel tabs refreshed on an interval for pivots and dashboards in Sheets
  • Customer + RFM snapshot: chained to the nightly RFM recompute

HPOS-compatible: a real google sheets woocommerce sync, free.

WooCommerce ROAS, Net Profit & Ad Spend: Google Ads + Meta Ads

BrikPanel pulls daily spend from Google Ads and Meta Ads (Facebook / Instagram) so you see real WooCommerce ROAS, Net Profit and ad spend next to revenue. Multi-currency aware. A free Triple Whale alternative and woocommerce profit tracking dashboard with no monthly fee.

BrikMarket Marketplace Analytics

When BrikMarket is active, marketplace orders are excluded from the storefront conversion rate, and a dashboard block breaks down orders, share and top categories per marketplace.

Subscription & Membership Plugin Compatibility

Works alongside WooCommerce Subscriptions, MemberPress, Paid Memberships Pro and more: subscription products and member orders sold through WooCommerce show up in the same product list, order screens and customer analytics.

Developer Hooks & Filters

A developer hooks and filters system for agencies, actions and filters like brikpanel_after_product_save, plus a built-in docs popup in settings with one-click copy buttons.

Navigation & Admin UI Cleanup

  • BrikPanel dashboard becomes the first WordPress admin menu item; admin bar gains quick links, footer text removed
  • Simplified mode (Modern navigation, on by default) folds the full WordPress menu into one Site management group, keeping BrikPanel + WooCommerce on top for non-technical clients

A Free, Self-Hosted WooCommerce Analytics & Inventory Suite

Store owners pay monthly SaaS fees for parts of what BrikPanel does free:

  • Self-hosted WooCommerce analytics: sales, AOV, conversion, funnels, geo data, customer LTV, RFM, cohort retention, no third-party
  • A free Metorik and Triple Whale alternative: analytics, ROAS and profit on your own server
  • Shopify alternative for WooCommerce: the clean admin experience of Shopify with your storefront, customer data and orders on your own server

Why BrikPanel and not the default WooCommerce admin?

WooCommerce’s built-in analytics are slow, refresh on a delay, and have no live visitor tracking, conversion funnel, geographic globe, customer LTV / RFM / cohort reports, Cmd+K order search, quick edit sidebar, variation bulk editor, custom login or modern coupon manager. BrikPanel fixes every one of those gaps inside a single free WooCommerce admin plugin.

WooCommerce HPOS Compatibility & Performance

  • Light on your storefront: admin screens load only inside wp-admin; shoppers only get the scripts of the storefront features you keep on
  • Hardened performance for low-resource hosting: heavy queries are batched, cached and run through Action Scheduler so the dashboard, customer analytics and bulk editor stay responsive on shared hosting
  • HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) fully supported with dual code paths
  • WooCommerce 9.2 and newer; works alongside Admin Menu Editor, Slider Revolution, Yoast SEO, RankMath, WPML, Polylang
  • Translation-ready (.pot file included), with all JavaScript / jQuery strings routed through wp_localize_script
  • DB writes use prepared statements; visitor tracking IPs stored only as truncated salted SHA-256 hashes; admin activity excluded from analytics; front-end tracking can be disabled entirely from settings

FAQ

Is BrikPanel really 100% free?

Yes. Every feature on this page is in the free version. There is no premium tier, no feature lock and no trial period. We also make a separate paid plugin, BrikMentor, and BrikPanel shows a small notice about it, which you can switch off under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel General. We have built 1000+ WooCommerce stores for our clients, learned from every one of them and decided to release BrikPanel.

Does BrikPanel hide WooCommerce’s own ads?

Yes, by default. WooCommerce.com places ads in your admin, like the promo card above the Orders list, the sale badge on the Extensions menu and extension suggestions. BrikPanel turns them off with WooCommerce’s own switches. To show them again, untick “Hide WooCommerce ads” under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel General.

Is BrikPanel a self-hosted WooCommerce analytics solution?

Yes. BrikPanel gives you a complete WooCommerce analytics suite that runs entirely on your own server with no external dependencies. Sales analytics, product reports, conversion tracking, customer LTV, RFM segmentation, cohort retention and customer data are all included, nothing is sent to any third-party SaaS.

Does BrikPanel include a WooCommerce sales report?

Yes. The BrikPanel dashboard ships a complete WooCommerce sales report out of the box, total sales, total orders and average order value (AOV), each with a ±% period-over-period delta, plus refunds and net revenue. Filter the sales report by today, yesterday, last 7 days, last 30 days, or any custom date range. The sales chart is rendered with Chart.js and pairs with the order status donut and conversion funnel for a full sales report you can read at a glance, without ever leaving wp-admin and without paying for an external analytics service.

Does BrikPanel offer custom WooCommerce reports, KPIs and a profit report?

Yes. The dashboard goes far beyond the built-in screens with a complete set of WooCommerce reports and WooCommerce sales analytics computed from your own store data: sales, orders, AOV and conversion rate live, plus customer LTV, RFM segments and cohort retention refreshed nightly. Each headline metric (sales, orders, AOV, visitors, conversion rate, net profit) is shown as a WooCommerce KPI card with a period-over-period delta, and a real profit report (revenue minus COGS, ad spend and manual expenses) sits right next to revenue. Because the LTV, RFM, cohort and geographic views are not part of core, BrikPanel effectively ships advanced reports for WooCommerce and custom WooCommerce reports as a free, self-hosted WooCommerce reporting layer, with no external SaaS and nothing sent off your server.

Can I customize the dashboard widgets, sales charts and graphs?

Yes. The BrikPanel admin dashboard is built from modular dashboard widgets (sales, orders, AOV, the conversion funnel, live visitors, the geographic globe, customer analytics and more), and the modules you do not need can be turned off from WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel. The sales charts and sales graphs are rendered with Chart.js and redraw for any date range you pick, so your custom dashboard shows exactly the sales charts, KPIs and reports you care about and nothing you do not.

Does BrikPanel work with multi-currency stores (CURCY, WCML)?

Yes. When your store takes orders in more than one currency, BrikPanel converts every order to your store’s base currency before summing, so Revenue, AOV and the sales chart are never a meaningless mix of currencies. With CURCY (WooCommerce Multi Currency) the exact day-of-sale rate is read from the snapshot CURCY stores on each order. With WCML (WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency) the current WCML rate is applied and snapshotted onto the order the moment it is placed, and re-applied with the current rate whenever the order is updated or your WCML rates are saved. For any other multi-currency setup you can enter flat fallback rates under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel Currency, or supply a rate programmatically through the brikpanel_order_base_factor filter (parameters: current factor, WC_Order, order currency, base currency; return the multiplier that converts one unit of the order currency into the base currency).

Where does BrikPanel read Cost of Goods (COGS) from? Can I use my own cost field?

BrikPanel reads product cost from WooCommerce’s own native Cost of Goods Sold field (_cogs_total_value, WooCommerce 9.5+) — the same field the WooCommerce product screen edits — so any plugin or import pipeline that writes the native cost is picked up automatically, including direct database writes. Costs saved by older BrikPanel versions are migrated into the native field automatically. Variation costs follow WooCommerce’s semantics, including the “additive” flag that adds a variation’s cost on top of the parent’s. If you keep cost somewhere else entirely, hook the brikpanel_product_cogs filter (parameters: resolved cost or null, product id, variation id) to point BrikPanel’s per-product cost reads at your own source.

Can I turn off BrikPanel’s front-end visitor tracking?

Yes. If you already run a dedicated analytics tool, disable Visitor tracking under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel Analytics and BrikPanel stops adding its tracking script, tracking cookies and tracking requests to your storefront. This switch covers analytics only: the shopper-facing features (checkout email capture, the Share cart button, the variation gallery) have their own switches, listed under “Does BrikPanel slow down my WooCommerce store?”. You can also keep tracking on but raise the live-visitor refresh interval to reduce server load, or exclude logged-in customer details from the Live view for a fully anonymous setup. If you only want tracking to wait for cookie consent rather than switching it off, see the next question.

Does BrikPanel work with a cookie consent banner? (GDPR / consent mode)

Yes. Tick Wait for cookie consent under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel Analytics and BrikPanel’s visitor tracking creates no cookie, no browser storage and no request at all until the visitor allows analytics. Consent is accepted from any of three sources, so any consent platform can drive it:

  • the WordPress Consent API (the statistics category), which BrikPanel also listens to for live changes;
  • a banner calling brikpanel_start_tracking() in JavaScript, with brikpanel_stop_tracking() on withdrawal;
  • the brikpanel_frontend_tracking_allowed PHP filter, for agencies wiring up a CMP without touching plugin files.

Consent takes effect immediately, with no page reload. When it is withdrawn, tracking stops at once and BrikPanel deletes its own cookies and browser storage for that visitor and drops them from the Live view. The anonymous daily totals already recorded are untouched, because they contain no visitor identifier to erase.

Tested against the most-installed consent banners. Working with no setup at all: Complianz, CookieYes, GDPR Cookie Compliance (Moove), WPConsent, Cookiebot, iubenda and Beautiful Cookie Consent Banner — they all speak the WordPress Consent API, so ticking the setting is the only step. Cookie Notice / Compliance by Hu-manity needs its Compliance mode connected, because its free unconnected mode never reports a category decision. CookieAdmin, Real Cookie Banner and Termly do not use the WordPress Consent API at all; bridge them with a few lines, using the pattern below (this exact snippet was tested against CookieAdmin, swap the cookie name and button ids for another banner):

add_filter( 'brikpanel_frontend_tracking_allowed', function ( $allowed ) {
    return isset( $_COOKIE['my_banner_cookie'] ) && $_COOKIE['my_banner_cookie'] === 'accepted';
} );

and in your theme’s footer, so a click takes effect without a reload:

document.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
    if (e.target.closest('#my-banner-accept') && window.brikpanel_start_tracking) window.brikpanel_start_tracking();
    if (e.target.closest('#my-banner-reject') && window.brikpanel_stop_tracking) window.brikpanel_stop_tracking();
}, true);

What visitor tracking stores in the browser, and only after consent when the setting is on: brikpanel_vid (a random id, 1 year, so a visit is counted once instead of once per page), brikpanel_human (30 days: the date and a signature showing the browser was used by a person, and what was already counted for it that day, so bots and repeat counts stay out), brikpanel_consent (the value 1, 30 days, remembering the choice), the local storage key brikpanel_campaign_viewed (the campaign links already counted today), plus, while “Traffic source in Live view” is on, the session storage key brikpanel_entry_src (where the visit came from, until the tab is closed). All of it is first-party and stays on your own site.

This setting governs analytics. Abandoned-cart email capture is a separate feature with its own switch under Cart abandonment. For a guest it saves no cart and sets no cookie until they enter their email address; when they do, it reuses the same brikpanel_vid id to tie the cart to that address. A logged-in customer’s email is already on their account, so their cart is saved as soon as it has items. The optional signup popup, if you turn it on, only keeps a few small entries in browser storage (that it was closed or used, the coupon it gave, whether the cookie banner was answered), so it does not keep reappearing.

Does the signup popup appear on top of my cookie banner?

No. Wait for cookie banner under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel Cart abandonment is on by default, and the popup then holds back until the visitor has answered the banner. Accepting and declining both release it, because signing up for an offer is not tracking. On a store with no cookie banner nothing changes at all: the popup opens after its normal delay, exactly as before.

It cannot be lost. Whatever happens with the banner, the popup opens no later than 30 seconds after the page loads, and the small floating tab that holds a visitor’s own coupon code is never held back.

Banners that speak the WordPress Consent API (Complianz, CookieYes, GDPR Cookie Compliance (Moove), WPConsent, Cookiebot, iubenda, Beautiful Cookie Consent Banner) need no setup. For a banner that does not, such as CookieAdmin, Real Cookie Banner or Termly, tell the popup when your banner was answered:

document.addEventListener('click', function (e) {
    var answered = e.target.closest('#my-banner-accept') || e.target.closest('#my-banner-reject');
    if (answered && window.brikpanel_popup_consent_answered) window.brikpanel_popup_consent_answered();
}, true);

Does BrikPanel support WordPress multisite?

Yes, both ways: network-activate it to run on every store in the network, or activate it on individual subsites only. Each site gets its own tables and settings either way. When network-activated, super admins additionally get network-wide access rules under Network Admin Settings BrikPanel Access.

Does BrikPanel show customer LTV, RFM segments and cohort retention?

Yes. BrikPanel ships a full WooCommerce customer analytics suite directly in the dashboard. Customer Lifetime Value (LTV) is calculated for every customer with average, top, and full distribution histogram. RFM segmentation scores every customer on Recency, Frequency and Monetary and groups them into 10 segments such as Champions, Loyal Customers, At Risk, About to Sleep, Hibernating and Lost. Cohort retention shows a month-by-month grid plus an average retention trend line. All three are computed from your own store data, no external service involved.

Is BrikPanel a free Shopify alternative for WooCommerce?

Yes, for store owners who want to stay self-hosted. BrikPanel gives your WooCommerce store the clean, modern admin experience of Shopify: product list with inline editing, bulk price and stock updates, live visitors, conversion tracking, geographic analytics, customer LTV / RFM / cohort reports, a branded login page, but your storefront, your customer data, and your orders stay on your own server. No monthly platform fee, no transaction fee, no vendor lock-in. If you were evaluating Shopify but want to own your stack, this is the Shopify alternative for WooCommerce we built for that exact use case.

Is BrikPanel an ATUM alternative for inventory management?

For most stores, yes. BrikPanel includes complete woocommerce inventory management: stock levels, low stock badges, bulk stock updates, variation stock updates, all integrated into the same dashboard you use for sales and orders. If you only need daily stock work, BrikPanel is a much lighter ATUM alternative, and it also has supplier and purchase order features you can switch on under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel Suppliers.

How do I get a faster WooCommerce product list with bulk actions and quick edit?

The default WooCommerce product list is built for browsing, but searching, sorting and editing it is slow. BrikPanel ships a complete woocommerce product list plugin with thumbnail, SKU, regular and sale price, stock badge, category, AJAX pagination, live search, status tabs, one-click publish toggle and a slide-in quick edit panel for every row. Works on both simple and variable products, and the same woocommerce product list screen powers the bulk price and bulk stock updates so you never leave the page to edit your catalog.

Can I search products by my own SKU field, like a supplier or manufacturer code?

Yes. The product list search matches the product title, the description and the WooCommerce SKU out of the box, including a variation SKU, which returns the parent product. If your warehouse also stamps a supplier code, a manufacturer part number or an EAN onto each product in its own custom field, point BrikPanel at it with the brikpanel_product_search_meta_keys filter, which receives the list of meta keys (just _sku by default) and the search term. Add your own key to the list and staff can find a product by typing it, on simple and variable products alike, because a match on a variation returns the parent. Up to ten keys are scanned. The filter is documented with a copyable example under WooCommerce, Settings, BrikPanel, Developers.

How do I bulk edit WooCommerce products including variations?

Open Products and click the Bulk update button in the toolbar. You can update prices, sale prices, and stock for all published products, by category, or for selected products. For variable products, click a product’s price or stock in the list to edit it for every variation in one modal, or open the product and bulk update prices and stock across every variation from the bar above its variations table. This is the part most free WooCommerce bulk editor plugins do not handle, BrikPanel does.

Can I bulk edit variation prices in WooCommerce with the free version?

Yes. Bulk edit variation prices WooCommerce is a core BrikPanel feature, and it is free. Set a percentage rule, set a fixed price, or update by attribute (every “Red” variation, every “Large” size). The same modal handles bulk update variation stock for the same products.

Does BrikPanel slow down my WooCommerce store?

BrikPanel is built to stay light on your storefront. Everything you use in the admin (dashboard, reports, product list, product and bulk editors) loads only inside wp-admin, so none of it reaches your shoppers. On the storefront, BrikPanel adds only what its shopper-facing features need, and only on the pages that use them:

  • Visitor tracking: a small script at the end of every page that sends its data in the background once the page is ready. On by default, switch: Analytics Visitor tracking.
  • Abandoned-cart email capture: a script on the checkout page only. On by default, switch: Cart abandonment Email collection.
  • Share cart button: a script and a small stylesheet on the cart page only. On by default, switch: Cart share Storefront share button.
  • Variation gallery: a small script on product pages. On by default, switch: Products Multiple images per variation.
  • Cart recovery popup: its scripts and stylesheet on your other pages, only if you turn the popup on. Off by default.
  • Description image lightbox: a tiny script and stylesheet, only on products where you set a description image to open in a lightbox.

All switches are under WooCommerce Settings BrikPanel. Turn them off and BrikPanel adds no scripts, styles or requests to your storefront, apart from the lightbox on products where you used it.

Is BrikPanel compatible with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?

Yes. Every order query either has dual code paths, one for the HPOS order tables and one for the legacy posts table, or uses wc_get_orders(), which handles both. BrikPanel declares HPOS compatibility via FeaturesUtil::declare_compatibility('custom_order_tables', ...) and is tested on stores running both modes.

How do I see WooCommerce sales by country?

Open the BrikPanel dashboard. Scroll to the geographic analytics section. The 3D globe shows the countries your orders come from, and the Top 5 Countries and Top 5 Cities tables (by orders or by customers) update in real time. BrikPanel extracts country and city from the billing address of every order, so this works with no extra setup.

How do I customize the WordPress login page for my WooCommerce store?

BrikPanel includes a built-in wordpress login customizer. The custom wp login page module is on by default (“Modern login page” in BrikPanel settings), so the default wp-login.php is replaced with a clean, branded login form that matches the rest of the BrikPanel admin. No CSS knowledge required.

How do I search WooCommerce orders by customer name or phone number?

Press Ctrl + K (or Cmd + K on Mac) anywhere inside wp-admin. The BrikPanel quick search overlay opens and searches across order ID, customer name, email, phone, and product SKU at the same time. This is the woocommerce search orders experience the WooCommerce admin should ship with by default.

Can I see who is on my WooCommerce store right now?

Yes. BrikPanel includes a woocommerce live visitors widget on the dashboard that updates every 30 seconds. You can see what page each visitor is on, whether they have items in the cart, and whether they are an existing customer. This is real woocommerce real time visitors tracking, not estimates. A page nobody has touched for 30 minutes drops off the list, so a tab left open on a desk is not counted as someone on your store, and it comes back as soon as the visitor scrolls, clicks, taps or types.

Does BrikPanel track WooCommerce conversion rate and conversion funnel?

Yes. BrikPanel includes a complete woocommerce conversion tracking system that records visitors, add-to-cart events, checkout starts, and completed orders. The dashboard shows your woocommerce conversion funnel as a five-step visual: Visitors Product Views Add to Cart Checkout Orders, with the count at every step and your overall conversion percentage on the Conversion Rate card.

Is there a free WooCommerce conversion tracking plugin built into BrikPanel?

Yes. BrikPanel ships a free WooCommerce conversion tracking plugin that records every visitor, add-to-cart, checkout start and completed order in your own database, no Google Analytics setup, no Hotjar, no monthly fee. The funnel and conversion-rate widgets on the dashboard are computed from this same dataset in real time.

Does BrikPanel recover abandoned carts?

Yes. BrikPanel includes a built-in WooCommerce cart abandonment and cart recovery system in the free version: no Klaviyo, Mailchimp or external email SaaS. It captures the email of shoppers who begin checkout but do not complete the order (from both the classic shortcode checkout and the newer block checkout, and from logged-in customers the moment they add to cart) and lists every one on a dedicated Abandoned Carts screen. Each entry keeps a full snapshot of the cart, including the exact variation, quantity and total, and moves through Active, Abandoned and Recovered automatically, even if the shopper later checks out with a different email. The screen has search, status, source and date filters, per-row product details, CSV and Excel export, and statistics cards. It works on both simple and variable products.

How does the WooCommerce cart recovery coupon popup work?

Switch on the optional email popup and BrikPanel shows a clean, on-brand sign-up offer to your visitors. Anyone who subscribes is issued their own single-use percentage cart recovery coupon (10% by default, and you set the rate), restricted to their email and valid for 30 days, shown right there with a one-click Copy button. You control the heading, message, button and success text, the delay before it appears, the cooldown after it is dismissed, and which of six animated reveal styles the coupon uses (Sealed envelope, Pocket card, Scratch card, Slot machine, Magnetic assembly or Classic ticket), all of which respect a visitor’s reduced-motion preference. Close the popup and it folds into a small floating tab, one click from reopening.

How do I sync WooCommerce orders to Google Sheets for free?

Open Google Sheets in the admin sidebar, click “Connect Google Sheets”, pick or create a target spreadsheet, and on the Orders tab toggle “Enable order sync” on (“Real-time append on new order” is on by default). Every new WooCommerce order is then appended to your Sheet within seconds, with one row per order, or one row per line item so variations land in their own rows. Status changes update the existing row in place. No Zapier, no Make, no monthly fee, a real woocommerce google sheets sync built into BrikPanel.

Does BrikPanel work as a free GSheetConnector or WPSyncSheets alternative?

Yes. BrikPanel includes a complete WooCommerce to Google Sheets integration in the free version: real-time order sync, scheduled bulk export, two-way product stock sync, two-way expenses sync, analytics snapshot tabs (Sales Summary, Daily KPIs, Top Products, Funnel, Profit) and a customer + RFM snapshot. All five flows (Orders, Products, Reports, Customers, Expenses) ship free with no row limit on orders, products and customers, no premium tier, and OAuth-based authentication that requests minimum scopes only (drive.file, never full Drive access).

How do I see real ROAS and net profit in WooCommerce?

Connect Google Ads and/or Meta Ads from the BrikPanel Ad Platforms page. BrikPanel then pulls your daily ad spend: Ad Spend is shown per platform in the Expenses card on the dashboard, a WooCommerce ROAS card (store revenue ÷ ad spend summed across every connected platform for the active date range) is added, and Net Profit subtracts it (revenue − refunds − COGS − ad spend − manual and other expenses). COGS comes from WooCommerce’s native cost field on each product and variation and expenses from the BrikPanel expenses table, so the woocommerce roas and net profit numbers are real, not estimates. The ROAS card is multi-currency aware: if an ad account reports in a different currency than the store, ROAS shows “Ad currency differs from store” instead of printing a misleading converted number, and that spend is left out of Net Profit.

Is BrikPanel a free Triple Whale alternative for WooCommerce?

For self-hosted stores, yes. BrikPanel gives you the WooCommerce ROAS and net profit view store owners buy Triple Whale, TrueProfit or BeProfit for: daily Google Ads and Meta Ads spend pulled in next to store revenue, COGS and expenses, but it runs on your own server with no monthly fee and no order or customer data sent to a third party: only your ad account ID and token, site address and date range pass through our brksoft.com helper. If you only need true ROAS and profit (not full multi-touch ad attribution), this is the free Triple Whale alternative built for that exact use case.

Does BrikPanel connect to Google Ads and Meta (Facebook / Instagram) Ads?

Yes. BrikPanel connects to both Google Ads and Meta Ads through a secure OAuth proxy (the plugin only ever stores encrypted tokens, never your password). It pulls daily spend per platform, backfills history, and re-syncs recent days automatically so the dashboard ROAS and net profit stay accurate. The integration is spend-and-profit focused, it does not install a Facebook pixel or do multi-touch attribution; it gives you true woocommerce roas and net profit without a paid SaaS.

Is there a free WooCommerce variation editor for bulk price and stock updates?

Yes. BrikPanel includes a complete WooCommerce variation editor in the free version. Open any variable product and you can edit every variation’s price, sale price, stock and SKU in one table, or bulk update the price, sale price and stock of every variation at once. The Bulk update modal on the product list adds attribute filtering, handy when a product has 50+ combinations, so the same woocommerce variation editor also supports per-attribute rules (“set every Red variation to $X”).

What makes BrikPanel different from the built-in WooCommerce analytics?

The built-in WooCommerce analytics are slow, refresh on a delay, only show historical data, and have no live visitor tracking, no conversion funnel, no geographic globe, no customer LTV / RFM / cohort reports, no Cmd+K order search, no quick edit sidebar, no variation bulk editor, no custom login page, and no modern coupon manager. BrikPanel adds every one of those features inside a single free plugin.

Is BrikPanel just a CSS reskin of the WooCommerce admin?

No. BrikPanel is a real woocommerce admin dashboard plugin with custom database tables for visitor tracking, custom AJAX endpoints for every interaction, real conversion analytics, a working bulk editor, a real product editor, a real coupon manager, and a real custom login system. Other plugins (Dashify, UiPress) mostly restyle the admin. BrikPanel rebuilds the parts of WooCommerce that needed to be rebuilt.

Can I use BrikPanel as a WordPress admin theme or admin skin for my store?

In practice, yes. BrikPanel is built specifically for WooCommerce, but for store owners it behaves like a focused WordPress admin theme: it reskins the WooCommerce parts of wp-admin into a clean, Shopify-style custom admin panel, replaces the default toolbar, and restyles the product, order, customer and coupon screens. If you have been looking for a wp admin theme or an admin skin that makes the WooCommerce admin genuinely pleasant to work in (rather than a generic restyle that breaks on the next WooCommerce update), this is built for exactly that. You can also hide admin menu items for non-technical clients with the simplified mode (Modern navigation, on by default) and the Navigation menu editor, leaving only BrikPanel and WooCommerce in the sidebar.

Does BrikPanel work with Yoast SEO, RankMath, Elementor, WPML, and Polylang?

Yes. BrikPanel does not interfere with frontend rendering, so it works with every page builder and SEO plugin we have tested. Yoast SEO, Rank Math, All in One SEO and SEOPress metaboxes (including their SEO score panels) render and save inside the BrikPanel product editor. It also has its own translation files and is fully compatible with WPML and Polylang for multilingual stores.

Does BrikPanel work with WooCommerce Subscriptions and membership plugins?

Yes. BrikPanel is compatible with WooCommerce Subscriptions, Subscriptions for WooCommerce (WP Swings), MemberPress, Paid Memberships Pro, WooCommerce Memberships, YITH WooCommerce Subscription, SUMO Subscriptions, WebToffee Subscriptions for WooCommerce and Restrict Content Pro. Subscription products and member orders sold through WooCommerce show up in the same product list, order screens and customer analytics as the rest of your catalog. Sales made in MemberPress, Paid Memberships Pro or Restrict Content Pro’s own checkout are not WooCommerce orders, so BrikPanel does not count them.

Where does BrikPanel store data?

Everything stays in your WordPress database. Visitor tracking writes to wp_brikpanel_visitors (daily totals), wp_brikpanel_visited_pages, wp_brikpanel_referrers and wp_brikpanel_cart_tracking, all anonymous counters with no visitor identifier in them. Other features have their own tables, created when BrikPanel is activated (expenses, suppliers, customer metrics, abandoned carts). Live visitor data is stored in a transient that auto-expires every 2 minutes and is never written to the database permanently. By default, your store, order, customer and visitor data is never sent anywhere. BrikPanel only contacts an external service for optional features you switch on yourself, described in the next question.

What data does BrikPanel send outside my site?

By default, nothing. BrikPanel only contacts an external service for features you explicitly opt into:

  • Newsletter (optional). A dismissible dashboard card, or the Newsletter row in WooCommerce > Settings > BrikPanel, offers occasional emails about new features, WooCommerce tips and ideas for growing your store. Only if you type your email address and tick the consent box are that address, your site address, site language and BrikPanel version sent to our server at brksoft.com. You can unsubscribe from any email we send. Privacy policy: https://brksoft.com/privacy-policy/ . Terms: https://brksoft.com/terms-and-conditions/
  • Google Sheets sync and Google / Meta Ads (optional). If you connect these, BrikPanel exchanges data with Google, Meta and our helper at brksoft.com to run the sync and read your ad spend: Google Sheets uses it only for authentication, while every Google Ads and Meta Ads request (ad account ID and token, site address, date range) passes through it. They only run after you connect the relevant account.
  • Deactivation survey (optional). Deactivating BrikPanel from the Plugins screen opens a short window asking why. “Skip and deactivate” sends nothing. Only “Send and deactivate” sends your answer, the days BrikPanel was in use, your BrikPanel, WordPress, WooCommerce and PHP versions and your admin language to our server at brksoft.com. Your site address, email and store data are never sent; the request’s IP address is used only against floods and is not stored. Privacy policy: https://brksoft.com/privacy-policy/

Does deleting BrikPanel delete my data?

No. Deactivating or deleting BrikPanel keeps your expenses, suppliers, purchase orders, visitor history and settings, so a reinstall picks up where you left off. Deactivating stops its background jobs. Regular ones, such as syncs and nightly scans, start again when you activate it; an import or export that was running, such as a Google Ads history import, must be started again.

Will BrikPanel always be free?

Yes. The dashboard, the bulk editor, the inventory tools, the order management, the coupon manager, the custom login, the conversion tracking, the customer analytics suite, and every other feature listed above will remain free forever. We also sell a separate paid product (BrikMentor) on top of BrikPanel, but it is additive, BrikPanel itself stays 100% free.

Is it BrikPanel or BrickPanel?

BrikPanel, written as one word and without a “c”. It is pronounced like “brick panel”, so it is often searched for as BrickPanel, Brick Panel or Brik Panel. All of these point to this plugin, made by Brksoft.

This is one of the best supported plugins I've encountered for Wordpress & Woocommerce. The developer hasn't said no to any requests or additions! The plugin works great!

The developers actually care about this plugin.. it's free, they even make updates and take feedback on board.. very fast and amazing. Love it!!!

Ran into a real bug where Google Ads / Meta Ads connections would silently disconnect within minutes of connecting, log said "corrupted" credentials but they weren't. Reported it with as much detail as I could dig up, and the developer had a genuine root cause identified and a proper fix shipped within the same day. No brush-off, no "can't reproduce," actually tested my working theory, found the real cause was more subtle than what I'd guessed, and fixed a second related bug in the process that I hadn't even caught. That kind of response is rare for a free plugin. Been running it since and it's been completely stable. Feature itself is genuinely useful once it works, real-time dashboard stuff you'd normally only get on Shopify.BrikPanel + BrikMentor = best combo!

Changelog

The full release history of every version is in changelog.txt, included with the plugin. The most recent releases are listed below.

3.3.31 (2026-10-05)

  • Fix: The dashboard in Firefox. In Firefox, the dashboard’s cards stacked one per line and its header took the phone layout on every screen size, and on a phone the Low stock list turned into cards. All of them look as they should again.
  • Fix: The dashboard on a zoomed page. On a zoomed page, the cards could stack one per line and the header could switch to its phone layout, even on a wide screen.
  • Fix: The Order locations globe no longer goes blank. Browsers without WebGL, such as LibreWolf, showed an empty box, and a globe that lost its graphics context stayed blank until the page was reloaded. A drawn globe now stands in, and the 3D globe comes back on its own.

3.3.30 (2026-10-05)

  • Fix: Visitors are counted once a day, and only real people. A visitor now counts after they move the mouse, tap, scroll or press a key. Bots, cloud servers, your staff and pages served from an old cache no longer add visitors, product views, add-to-carts or checkouts. A first-party cookie, brikpanel_human, remembers the check for 30 days and follows your cookie consent setting.
  • New: Bot traffic is cleaned up every night. Store Health lowers past days that bots inflated, leaves days with real sales for you to decide, and keeps an Undo. Days you put back with Undo are never touched again.
  • Tweak: Simpler stock for variations. Each variation now has one stock box with an ∞ button beside it: type how many you have, or press ∞ to sell it without counting. New variations start at 0, the bulk edit bar has the same ∞ button, and “Allow backorders?” sits in each variation’s details.
  • Fix: Top referrers tells two rows of the same site apart. When one site sends visits through two channels, such as Google ads and Google search, each of its rows in Top referrers now names its channel.

3.3.29 (2026-10-04)

  • New: A new dashboard look. The store cards fit in one row, each with a small trend line, and one sales chart switches between Revenue, Orders and Avg. order value, with the previous period dashed. The Excel export and “Copy everything” stay the same.
  • New: Today’s sales in Live visitors. The card lists up to 5 visitors and “N more”. When no one is on the store, it shows today’s sales so far and sales per hour.
  • New: Products and pages card. Best sellers, Most viewed pages and Most added to cart in one card with tabs. Most viewed pages also counts pages that are not products, such as the shop and home page.
  • Tweak: Recent orders, Visitors and Customers redrawn. Recent orders looks like the orders list. Visitors has Devices, Sources and Top campaigns tabs, and Customers shows new and returning customers with the VIP, loyal and at risk groups. Low stock rows show a badge and the variation.
  • Tweak: The dashboard loads less. BrikPanel draws its own charts, so Chart.js is loaded only when BrikMarket is active.
  • New: A new welcome tour. New users get a 4-step window instead of the 9-step tour. Each step shows one thing BrikPanel does with a small sketch, and the last screen links to the Dashboard, Orders, Customers and Google Sheets. If you closed the old tour, it does not open again.
  • New: Deactivation survey. Deactivating BrikPanel from the Plugins screen opens a short, optional question about why. “Skip and deactivate” sends nothing; “Send and deactivate” shares only your answer, the days BrikPanel was in use, version numbers and your admin language with brksoft.com, never your site address or store data.
  • New: The products list remembers your sort. The sort you pick is saved for each user and used the next time the list opens. Filters and the “Sort” button’s custom order are not kept.
  • Fix: Sorting by price keeps products without a price. They no longer drop out of the list, and variable products sort by their lowest price going up and their highest price going down.

3.3.28 (2026-10-02)

  • New: Top campaigns. On the dashboard, Visitors by device “Sources” lists the 5 campaigns that brought the most revenue, with their orders, conversion rate and revenue. The Excel export gets a “Campaigns” sheet. Campaign visits are counted from this version on and follow your visitor tracking and cookie consent settings.
  • New: Abandoned carts in the Conversion funnel. A line under the funnel shows the carts abandoned in the selected period, their value, how many were recovered and the change from the previous period. The Excel export has the same figures.
  • New: Exclude products and saved segments. Segments More filters “Exclude products” leaves out orders, or customers, that include those products. “+ Save as segment” keeps any filter under a name, as a button next to the presets.
  • Fix: The Segments product filter finds new orders. It now also finds orders WooCommerce has not yet processed for analytics, and a variable product covers all its variations. “Reset” no longer sends the old status choice.
  • Fix: Menus moved into More keep their pages. Tools, Settings or any other menu you move into the sidebar’s More menu now opens its pages under it, and the page you are on stays highlighted.
  • Fix: The dashboard header fits when BrikMarket is active. The date buttons and “Copy everything” no longer shrink at every width; they stay in one line on wide screens, as they do without BrikMarket.

3.3.27 (2026-10-01)

  • Fix: Connect buttons explain what went wrong. When Google Sheets, Google Ads or Meta cannot be connected because the site cannot reach brksoft.com, BrikPanel tries once more by itself, then shows the reason and what to do in a box that stays on screen, with technical details you can send to your host.
  • Fix: A failed or cancelled Google or Meta sign-in is explained. The message now appears on the right card in plain words, instead of a raw code like “access_denied” or no message at all.
  • Fix: Error messages are no longer hidden by Cloudflare or nginx. Google Sheets and Ad Platforms errors reach the screen as written, so you no longer see “click Sync now again” under Connect or “Unexpected token ‘<‘”.
  • Tweak: The Google Sheets page opens fast before you connect. It no longer asks brksoft.com for settings it does not need yet. On sites that cannot reach brksoft.com, the page took about 20 seconds to open.

3.3.26 (2026-09-29)

  • New: WhatsApp follow-up message. Setting: Orders “Message per order status” “Follow-up message”, one per status, empty by default. The first WhatsApp press on an order opens the status message; later presses open the follow-up (“Send follow-up”) until the order’s status changes.
  • Fix: WhatsApp buttons follow a status change right away. After changing the status from the list badge or the tracking number window, they no longer open the old status’s message until the page is reloaded.
  • Tweak: The Share cart button looks like your theme’s buttons. It now takes the same style as the other cart buttons, such as “Apply coupon”, in both the classic and the block cart.

3.3.25 (2026-09-28)

  • New: Several ad accounts. Ad Platforms “Ad accounts” is now a list: tick up to 20 Meta or Google Ads accounts. Each account’s history loads and updates on its own, and ROAS, Expenses and Net profit add them all up. Reconnecting fills the missing days instead of loading three years again.
  • New: Trakoo tracking numbers in WhatsApp and the orders list. With Trakoo (Orders Tracking for WooCommerce) active, WhatsApp messages can use {tracking_number}, {carrier_name} and {tracking_url}, and each order in the list gets an “Add tracking number” button. Trakoo saves it, so its emails and status changes work as usual.
  • New: Show menu items by permission. In Navigation, a menu item can be shown to “Users with a permission”, and a role list can “Show only to these roles” as well as hide from them.
  • New: Block pages hidden from the menu. Setting: Navigation “Block pages hidden from the menu”: people who cannot see an item cannot open its page from a link, search or shortcut either. Administrators are never blocked. Off by default.
  • New: Publish products without a price. Setting: Products “Require a price to publish” can now be turned off. On by default, as before.
  • New: A starting guide for new stores. A store with no orders gets first steps on the dashboard, and empty cards and charts say why they are empty. Customer Analytics, Segments, Abandoned Carts and Orders do the same.
  • Fix: Customers can retry payment with their own discount code. A single-use popup or BrikMentor code held by the customer’s own unpaid order is released when they come back, so they no longer see “usage limit reached”.
  • Fix: Removed the “Default status for new orders” setting. With a status such as “Processing” chosen, the classic checkout skipped payment. Every order now starts as “Pending payment”.
  • Fix: No “no callback is registered” errors. Switching off Abandoned carts, Store Health, Google Sheets or Ad Platforms removes their background jobs. “Failed (24h)” and “Done (24h)” in Scheduled Tasks count only the last 24 hours.
  • Fix: Background jobs stop when BrikPanel is deactivated and start again when it is activated. No data is deleted.
  • Fix: The image remove button works in right-to-left languages and on touch screens. The × no longer sits under the video button, and it is always visible on phones and tablets.
  • Fix: No “set_cogs_value was called incorrectly” lines in the error log when WooCommerce’s cost of goods feature is off. BrikPanel still saves its own cost.
  • Fix: Net profit change points the right way when the previous period was a loss.
  • Fix: Numbers, percentages, prices and dates follow the store settings on every screen, not the browser language. Sentences with a count use the right plural in every language.
  • Fix: Store Health shows its results in the admin’s language. The images card turns red only for large or missing images, and stores without images see “OK”.
  • Fix: The Low stock card tells the real state and links to out-of-stock products. Variation names no longer repeat the SKU.
  • Fix: Admin orders are left out of Recent Orders and the Excel report, and dashboard numbers update right away when an order is trashed, restored or deleted.
  • Fix: Sale prices are readable in the products list again, also after quick edit.
  • Fix: Menu hiding works for Categories, Tags and renamed items, and BrikPanel search no longer lists pages hidden from the menu.
  • Tweak: The products list looks like Orders. One line per product with row icons, tabs and filters inside the card, and “Screen Options” next to Import. When the table does not fit, row buttons fold into a “⋯” menu first, then rows turn into cards.
  • Tweak: One look on every screen. Fields, buttons, badges and lists share one style. Lists and reports use the full width, forms 820px, with equal side margins. Titles use normal capitalisation and one size, and WordPress’s blue accent is dark grey in the BrikPanel look.
  • Tweak: Darker text. Text meant to be read and status colours now have enough contrast.
  • Tweak: All 9 languages are fully translated. Two storefront texts changed (the popup’s “Check your inbox…” and the login page footer): update them if you translated them yourself.
  • Tweak: WooCommerce tested up to 11.1. The Ad Platforms page now says that ad tokens are sent to the brksoft.com helper for syncing.
