Exclude the Individual product category from the restriction rules<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Suppose that you have already applied a general quantity restriction rule on all categories of your online store as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Minimum Quantity:<\/strong> 4<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Maximum Quantity:<\/strong> 8<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Quantity Groups of:<\/strong> 1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

It means customers can order products from all categories of your WooCommerce store between 4 to 8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nNow, you want to exclude the Clothing<\/strong> category from these general restriction rules, which means customers can order as many quantities as they need from those special products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To make this happen, follow the below steps: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Go to WordPress dashboard > Products > Categories. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"open](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/02-open-categories.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n- \n
- Hover over the Clothing<\/strong> category and click on the Edit<\/strong> option. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"click](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/03-click-on-edit-button.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n- \n
- In the edit category page, find Minimum Maximum Quantity Options.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Mark Exclude<\/strong> field.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Press the Update <\/strong>button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"mark](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/04-mark-exclude-category-on-min-max-quantity-.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThat\u2019s it. You have successfully given access to your customers to order any quantity of the products in the Clothing<\/strong> category without any restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"restriction](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/05-restriction-result-in-cart.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nExclude multiple product categories from the restriction rules in bulk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If there are more than one category that you need to exclude from the general quantity restrictions rule, there is no need to open their edit pages one by one and exclude them manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can do this process by using the Bulk Action<\/strong> tool in the MINMAXiT – Min and Max Quantity for WooCommerce plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, let\u2019s try to exclude Clothing<\/strong>, Accessories,<\/strong> and Wine<\/strong> categories from the general restriction rule we have set before for all categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Navigate to WordPress dashboard > iThemeland > Min Max Quantity.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"open](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/06-select-min-max-quantity-plugin.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n- \n
- Open the Bulk Action<\/strong> tab and click on the Add Rule<\/strong> button. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"add](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/07-add-rule-in-bulk-action-tab.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n- \n
- In the Add Rule<\/strong> page, fill in the below fields:\n
- \n
- Select items:<\/strong> Choose the Category<\/strong> from the list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Add Clothing<\/strong>, Accessories,<\/strong> and Wine<\/strong> categories to the Select Category <\/strong>field.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Mark Exclude<\/strong> field.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Press the Add Rule<\/strong> button<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"select](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/08-select-category-as-exclude-ithem-type-rule.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nSo, when customers want to order products from other categories, they should meet the conditions otherwise they will receive a notification:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"cart](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/09-cart-restriction-notice.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nHowever, if they order products from the excluded categories, there are no quantity limits. So, they can easily proceed to checkout as shown below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nExclude Individual product tags from the general restriction rules <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s review the steps to exclude individual tag from general restriction rules by making an example about Clothes<\/strong> tag:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Go to Products > Tags.<\/strong> <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Click the Edit<\/strong> option after hovering over the Clothes<\/strong> tag.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"open](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/11-open-product-tag-edit-page.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n- \n
- Find Minimum Maximum Quantity Options<\/strong> and mark Exclude<\/strong> in the edit tag page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Press the Update <\/strong>button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
![\"mark](\"https:\/\/ithemelandco.com\/docs\/woommp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/21\/2024\/12\/12-mark-exclude-tag-for-indiidual-product-tag-restriction.png\")
<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nExclude multiple product tags from the general restriction rules<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you need to exclude more than one product tag \u2013 for example, Cute<\/strong> and Drama<\/strong>, it makes sense to use the Bulk Action<\/strong> tool in the MINMAXiT – Min and Max Quantity for WooCommerce plugin to save time and effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The steps are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Open the Bulk Action<\/strong> tab on the plugin main page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Click the Add Rule<\/strong> button.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Choose the Tag<\/strong> from the Select item type.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Select Cute<\/strong> and Drama<\/strong> from the list of tags.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Mark Exclude<\/strong> field.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Press the Add rule <\/strong>button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nBy applying the bulk action, customers can order products from Cute<\/strong> and Drama<\/strong> tags without any quantity limits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
