Return Window Desk — concept preview of the proposed WordPress plugin

The problem

Return policy lives in a page nobody opens, so support argues about whether day 31 still counts.

Who this WordPress plugin is for

Stores with a simple return window in days, not a full RMA portal.

Return Window Desk is a proposed WordPress plugin for Stores with a simple return window in days, not a full RMA portal..

Each order stores a return-by date from the product or store default. My Account and the packing slip show it. Refund Reason Atlas is merchant analytics; this is the customer-facing window.

Proposed plugin features

What this WordPress plugin would include in an initial release.

  • Window in days

    Store default, with a product override for final-sale SKUs.

  • On My Account

    The order shows Returns until 18 Oct.

  • On the slip

    Packers can see final sale vs 30-day lines.

Not in the first release

Kept out of scope on purpose, so the first version ships small and focused.

  • Customer RMA portals
  • Carrier return labels
  • Refund reason analytics

Concept screens

My Account order with a return-by date
