Guests, sharing, and privacy
Last updated
Wishlist works for guests and logged-in customers.
Where items are stored
- Logged-in users — user meta
_jwp_stk_wishlist(product IDs) - Guests — cookie
jwp_stk_wishlist
On login, guest items merge into the user meta list. Mention the cookie in your store privacy policy. If guest lists vanish, check that caches are not stripping cookies on the AJAX actions jwp_stk_wishlist_toggle, jwp_stk_wishlist_get, and jwp_stk_wishlist_get_share_url (nonce action jwp_stk_wishlist).
Sharing
A shopper can copy a share URL. Recipients open the wishlist with the jwp_share query argument. The share payload is a snapshot of product IDs — it does not grant edit access.
