I want to enable this for only certain products (better if category), not all. Will this do the job?
Thanks.
Hi Shekhar,
Unfortunately, this snippet can’t do that. It was built to apply to all the products.
We could customize that for you, if you are interested in that customization, here you have a link to our service page:

I think you have a little issue in the code, the last 2 lines.
this:
Hello Francisco,
Thank you, that’s correct. You need to remove the last “}” symbol.
Help this crashed my site. Don’t know how to get it back!
Hello Ivan,
Sorry for such a late reply. If it still actual: first of all, you need to disable the plugin using FTP or file manager.
To do it you need to navigate to ‘yourwordpresswebsite/wp-content/plugins’ directory and disable the necessary plugin by renaming its folder.
Then you need to fix the script removing the last “}” symbol.
