Is there a way to remove a promo code from a cart from the front-end? LEt’s say that a customer has applied the wrong code and wants to change it…

Hi,

There actually isn’t. Once the promo code is accepted for a transaction there isn’t a way to remove it.

OK, but the problem that I am actually having is that the promo card is being applied automatically to transactions occurring after the transaction where the coupon was applied. Here’s the scenario:

1) User applied promo code on transaction and completed transaction
2) User comes back later to purchase additional tickets. Coupon code is automatically applied.

Is this the intended behavior? Is there any way to prevent this from occurring?

That’s not normal or intended behavior. Is the user hitting the back button after completing the transaction. Or is the registration-checkout page & thank you page served from a cache?

Hi Josh,

We are hosted on SiteGround and using their SuperCache. I did exclude the necessary pages from cache, but it still seems to be picking up the coupon. I will try disabling cache altogether to see if it makes any difference.

In the meantime, is there any specific guidance for SuperCache / Siteground?

If disabling the cache doesn’t help (as you’ve alluded to in your other topic), then the next step is to rule out a plugin conflict. You could also check and make sure any server level caching isn’t interfering with WordPress transient storage (you may need to check with your host about this).

Normally sessions need to clear when a transaction is completed.

Josh – is there any way to make a request to be able to remove coupons from a cart?

Hi,

That’s not a feature we plan on adding. The way forward for your site will be to figure out why sessions are not clearing when the transaction is completed.
