​
How it works

At a high level, BoxBuilder works like this:
1

Create a box product

Create a standard WooCommerce product and enable BoxBuilder on it. Configure the capacity, pricing model, and which products customers can choose from.
2

Customer builds their box

On the product page, customers see a visual builder with a product grid and a box summary panel. They browse, search, and add items until their box is full.
3

Add to cart and checkout

The completed box is added to the WooCommerce cart as a single line item. Box contents are shown in the cart, order confirmation, and emails.
Under the hood, BoxBuilder uses WooCommerce’s native cart and order system — no custom database tables. Each item in the box is tracked as a hidden sub-item for proper stock management, while the customer only sees one clean “box” line item.
