YITH WooCommerce Desktop Notifications is a "store monitor" tool designed to keep shop managers and admins updated in real-time. Instead of having to refresh your WordPress dashboard constantly, this plugin pushes browser-based alerts directly to your desktop whenever a key event occurs on your site.
The plugin uses browser push technology to alert you even if you are working in a different tab or have the browser minimized (as long as the browser itself is open).
Real-Time Alerts: Receive instant pop-ups for new orders, sales, and refunds.
Inventory Monitoring: Get notified immediately when a product is low on stock or goes out-of-stock.
Direct Links: Each notification typically includes a link that takes you directly to the specific order or product in your WordPress backend.
Role-Based Access: You can choose which team members (e.g., Shop Managers vs. Admins) receive specific types of notifications.

Standard License: Typically $59.99/year for a single site.
What’s Included: One year of one-to-one support and regular plugin updates to ensure compatibility with the latest versions of WordPress and WooCommerce.
Fast Fulfillment: If you run a high-volume store or sell time-sensitive items (like food delivery or tickets), knowing the second an order arrives allows for immediate processing.
Stock Emergency: Being alerted the moment a popular item runs out prevents "lost sales" that occur when you don't realize a product is unavailable.
Team Efficiency: You can set it up so your warehouse manager only gets "New Order" alerts, while the site owner only gets "Refund" or "Low Stock" alerts.
This plugin is built to work seamlessly with other YITH tools:
YITH Custom Order Status: You can set up desktop notifications for any custom status you create (e.g., "Out for Delivery").
YITH Multi-Vendor: Allows individual vendors to receive notifications only for orders involving their own products.
YITH Booking: Receive alerts when a new booking request is made or requires confirmation.
Would you like me to help you configure the specific sound and icon settings for your alerts, or do you need a guide on how to enable browser permissions for these notifications?
