The Discount Rules screen

Your rules at a glance: stats, search and filters, turning rules on and off, ordering, duplicating and deleting.

WooCommerce → Discount Rules lists every rule. Each card shows the rule name, its status, its type, what it applies to and a short summary of the discount.

Rules list with free and Pro rules
Rules list with Pro installed. Each card summarises the deal and any conditions.

Stats

The three tiles at the top show how many rules are active, how many paid orders were discounted in the last 30 days, and how much customers saved in total. Each rule card also shows its own orders and savings. Stats count paid orders (processing and completed) and update as new orders come in.

Status

LabelMeaning
ActiveThe rule applies in your shop.
PausedSaved but not applied. Turn it on with the switch.
Needs ProThe rule uses a Pro rule type or condition and Pro isn’t active. It is kept but not applied.

Search and filter

Type in Search rules to find rules by name or type. Use All / Active / Paused to filter by status.

Turn a rule on or off

Use the switch on the right of each card. The change is saved immediately.

Change the order

Drag a card by the handle on its left, or open the ⋮ menu and choose Move up or Move down. Order matters when two rules give a product the same price, and with Pro’s “highest rule wins” and “stack” modes. See When rules overlap.

Note: Dragging is turned off while you are searching or filtering, so the order you see is always the full order.

Duplicate a rule

Choose ⋮ → Duplicate. The copy appears below the original, named “(copy)” and paused, so you can edit it before switching it on.

Delete a rule

Choose ⋮ → Delete and confirm. Changed your mind? Click Undo in the message at the bottom of the screen. Orders that were already placed keep their prices.
