Thin WordPress/Woo bridge — RecordGod owns catalog/stock/pricing/shipping; the plugin is a storefront
skin + checkout adapter over /shop:
- storefront: SSR /records (browse) + /release/{id} inside the theme, with title/meta/JSON-LD MusicAlbum
- on-the-fly Woo product: /?rg_add=<sku> mints a hidden WC_Product_Simple from /shop/item (the WowPlatter
trick — 25k catalog, only sold items become Woo products)
- shipping: WC_Shipping_Method quoting /shop/shipping/quote by cart item count (AusPost flat rate)
- orders: order_status_completed -> POST /shop/woo-order (X-Bridge-Key), idempotent, marks SKUs sold
- settings page: base URL + bridge key + store id
Backend: added thumb to /shop/browse + /shop/release so storefront pages have cover art.
