Catalog export

A print-ready PDF and a CSV of the product catalog, priced for the current customer. Both come from one module (src/CatalogPdf/CatalogPdf.php) and one download endpoint; the PDF is rendered with mPDF (a Composer dependency of the plugin).

The module is off by default. A host opts in with a single filter:

add_filter( 'wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_enabled', '__return_true' );

What it renders

• PDF — a letter-format catalog grouped by product category, with a header built from your site identity (Customizer logo + site name). Each viewer sees either:
  • their own price — MSRP + a "Your Price" column (price_for_user), or
  • the full tier matrix — MSRP + one column per tier (price_as_tier) — for viewers the wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_show_full_matrix filter returns true for (managers by default).
• CSV — one row per product: SKU, Name, Price, Description, Category, URL. Price is the viewer's own price; URL is a spreadsheet =HYPERLINK(...) cell that reads "Click to View".

Products and categories can be trimmed with wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_excluded_categories (term IDs) and wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_skip_product ($skip, $product_id).

Shortcodes

Shortcode	Default tag	Output
Buttons	wc_pricebook_catalog	"Download (PDF)" + "Download (CSV)" buttons. format="pdf"|"csv"|"both"
PDF URL	catalog_pdf_url	Just the PDF download URL (for a custom link/button)
CSV URL	catalog_csv_url	Just the CSV download URL

All three tags are filterable — see Filters & hooks.

Download endpoint

The buttons and URL shortcodes point at admin-post.php?action=wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf&format=pdf|csv, protected by a WordPress nonce. Because the nonce is embedded in the rendered link, take care when placing these on a page-cached URL — a cached nonce can expire while the page persists.

Example — a store-specific catalog

// Turn it on and bind it to a store's own shortcode tag.
add_filter( 'wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_enabled', '__return_true' );
add_filter( 'wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_shortcode', fn() => 'print-catalog-full' );

// Everyone sees their own price; only managers get the full matrix (the default).
// Leave categories 15 and 218 out of the catalog.
add_filter( 'wc_pricebook_catalog_pdf_excluded_categories', fn() => array( 15, 218 ) );
