7 Best Wishlist Plugins for WordPress
Whether it’s through Amazon, WooCommerce or another platform entirely, a wishlist gives your audience the opportunity to record their most coveted-after items in a simple list. WordPress wishlist plugins let you easily add this functionality to your site and allow your viewers have quick links to their favourite products. Then, if they choose, your audience can later add their wishlist items to their shopping cart, making their time on your site more user friendly. Here’s a list from us at WP Carers of the 7 Best Wishlist Plugins for WordPress.

1. Wish Pics – Wishlist Plugins
Wish Pics provides users with a very visual way to create an Amazon wishlist. The wishlist is displayed in a grid format with pictures of each item shown instead of there being text describing it. One possible downfall is that this plugin will only work if the Amazon Link plugin is also installed. Wishlist settings include wishlist name/ID, thumbnail width, thumbnail height, array width, public access and access level.

2. YITH WooCommerce Wishlist – Wishlist Plugin WordPress
This plugin allows you to add an ‘Add to Wishlist’ button on every product detail page. Users have the option to add products to their shopping cart from their separate wishlist page, or to remove them from wishlist. This increase indirect sales, especially around holidays as people search for their loved one’s wishlists. Wishlists can also be shared on social networks. YITH is compatible with WPML and available in 18 languages.

Amazon Associates Wishlist requires some configuration before use, but detailed instructions are provided on the WordPress plugin directory and the plugin works well once installed and configured. This plugin automatically updates every hour so that new items you have added to your wishlist will be recognised.

When you see something you wish to add, bookmark it “wishlist”. Then, add another bookmark to denote it’s importance. When you have received the item, you can remove the rating bookmark but keep the “wishlist” bookmark to keep a record of all of your wishlist items.
