Getting started

Most shops can publish a working quick-order page in a few minutes. Install Rapid, pick the product scope, drop the shortcode on a page.

  • WordPress 6.5 or newer
  • WooCommerce 8.0 or newer (HPOS and Cart/Checkout Blocks supported)
  • PHP 8.1 or newer
  1. Install WooCommerce and make sure it is active.
  2. Install Rapid from the plugin directory (when live on WordPress.org) or upload the rapid folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
  3. Activate the plugin.

Open WooCommerce → Rapid:

  • Product scopeAll products, or Selected categories only with the categories you want to offer.
  • Columns — choose which to show: image, SKU, price, stock.
  • Results per page — how many products the live search returns per page.

Create a page (for example “Quick Order”) and add the shortcode:

[rapid_order]

To pre-filter the form to one category, pass its slug:

[rapid_order category="accessories"]
  1. Open your quick-order page — the product table should render with quantity inputs.
  2. Type a product name or SKU in the search — results should update without a reload.
  3. Set quantities on a few products and click Add selected to cart — all should be added with a single notice.
  4. Disable JavaScript and reload — the first page of products should still render and the submit should still add to the cart.

The free edition covers the full quick-order form: AJAX search by name or SKU, category filter and scope, batched add-to-cart, selectable columns and results-per-page.

Rapid PRO (planned) adds saved order lists, CSV/paste import, customer-specific pricing and per-role forms — not basic quick ordering.
