Probo Connect for WooCommerce

Settings

The Probo Settings page is organized into several sections, accessible via tabs at the top of the page.

Every setting the plugin offers, grouped by the tab it lives under in WooCommerce → Settings → Probo Connect. Each row lists the label you see in the admin, its setting key (a reference for support), the default value, and a plain-language explanation of what it does and when you'd use it.

Tabs:

Probo Settings (general)
Shipment Settings
Margins Settings
Configurator Settings
Styling Settings
Status Sync
Advanced Settings
Logging

Probo Settings (general)

Your connection to Probo and the defaults used for every order.

Setting	Setting key	Default	What it does
API Key	`probo_api_key`	(empty)	Connects your shop to Probo. Nothing works until you paste in the key from your Probo account.
Sandbox mode	`probo_sandbox_mode`	Off	A safe test mode: orders are placed but never actually produced or shipped. Turn it off to go live.
Order Prefix	`probo_order_prefix`	`PC-`	Text placed in front of your order number at Probo, so you can recognise where an order came from.
Error Notification Email	`probo_error_email`	(empty)	Where you get an email if an order fails to reach Probo. Fill this in so problems don't go unnoticed.
Probo Contact Email	`probo_contact_email`	(empty)	Optional. The Probo account an order is linked to. It must be an email that can already log in to Probo, otherwise Probo refuses the order.

Shipment Settings

How delivery and shipping options are chosen, where orders are sent from, and shipment emails. A few of these open a small pop-up where you fill in the details.

Max Delivery Dates	`probo_price_filter_limit`	`10`	How many delivery dates the customer can choose from. Lower keeps the choice simple.
Hide rush delivery dates	`probo_filter_rush_dates`	Off	Hides faster delivery dates that cost a rush surcharge.

How your selling prices are calculated from Probo's prices.

Rush margin settings (pop-up)	`probo_rush_margin_settings`	—	The actual rush markups, shown once "Rush Margins" is switched on.

Configurator Settings

How the product configurator behaves for your customers, and what's required before they can check out. Colours and fonts are on the separate Styling tab.

Setting	Setting key	Default	What it does
Configurator Language	`probo_configurator_language`	English	The language of the configurator interface. (Product option names still need translating separately.)

Styling Settings

The look of the configurator — colours, fonts and shapes.

Advanced Settings

Extra options for fine-tuning and troubleshooting. Most shops never need to change these.

Bypass same-site request check	`probo_bypass_same_site_check`	Off	A troubleshooting switch for sites behind a CDN/proxy where the configurator won't load. Only use it if support advises — it lowers a security check.
Shipping Class Migration (tool)	`probo_shipping_migration_settings`	—	A one-time helper to move older shipping setups to the current system.
Auto-Order (pop-up)	`probo_auto_order_settings`	—	Rules for automatically sending qualifying orders to Probo without manual action.

Logging

Logs help support diagnose problems. They're off by default to keep your site fast — switch a category on only while investigating, then switch it back off. Each category has a "view log" link to WooCommerce → Status → Logs.
