VoucherPress is a Wordpress plugin that allows you to give downloadable, printable vouchers/ticket/coupons/tokens in PDF format away on your site.

== Description ==

Have you ever wanted to give away vouchers, tickets, coupons or tokens on your website? If so this plugin is for you. You can create a voucher with whatever text you want, choosing the layout and font from a range of templates (you can also add your own templates). Vouchers can then be viewed, downloaded and printed from a specified URL.

There are shortcodes to add a link to a particular voucher, or to show an unordered list of all your vouchers.

You can require visitors to provide their name and email address to get a voucher. If an email address is required an email is sent to the address with a link to the voucher URL. Each voucher has a unique code, and vouchers that have an email address associated with them can only be used once, so once a registration-required voucher is downloaded it can't be downloaded again.

The plugin also makes use of the __() function to allow for easy translation.

== Installation ==

The plugin should be placed in your /wp-content/plugins/ directory and activated in the plugin administration screen. The plugin is quite large (over 20mb) as it includes the TCPDF class for creating the PDF file.

== Shortcodes ==

There are two shortcodes available. The first shows a link to a particular voucher, and is in the format:

[voucher id="123"]

The "id" parameter is the unique ID of the voucher. The correct ID to use is available in the screen where you edit the voucher.

You can also show an unordered list of all your live vouchers using this shortcode:

[voucherlist]

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Why did you write this plugin? =

I'm not sure. it seemed like a good idea, and gave me opportunity to learn a little bit about the TCPDF class.

= Does this plugin work with any e-commerce plugins? =

Not at the moment, but I'm sure it could if those e-commerce plugin developers want to get in touch.
