WooCommerce is one of the most popular eCommerce platforms on the web. If you’re running a WooCommerce store, you may want to add a phone number to the checkout page.
This can be useful for customer service or for sales purposes.
There are a few different ways to add a phone number to WooCommerce checkout. You can use a plugin, add it to the theme, or hard-code it into the checkout page. We’ll show you how to do all three methods.
Method 1: Use a Plugin
There are a few plugins that will allow you to add a phone number to WooCommerce checkout. One of the most popular is “WooCommerce Custom Fields”.
This plugin lets you add custom fields to any WooCommerce page, including the checkout page. Once you’ve installed and activated the plugin, go to “WooCommerce” > “Custom Fields”. From there, you’ll be able to add a new field.
In the new field, you’ll need to enter some information. In the “Field Label” box, enter “Phone Number.”
Then, scroll down to the “Field Type” section and select “Text.” Leave the other settings as they are, and then click on the “Add Field” button.
Now that you’ve added the field, it will appear on the checkout page. Customers will be able to enter their phone number in this field.
Method 2: Add It to Your Theme
If you’re comfortable with code, you can add a phone number field to WooCommerce checkout by adding some code to your theme. First, you’ll need to open your theme’s functions.php file.
If you’re using a child theme, edit that file. Otherwise, edit the functions.php file in your main theme directory.
Once the file is open, scroll down and look for the “WooCommerce Checkout” section. If your theme doesn’t have this section yet, don’t worry – just create it by adding this code:
function my_custom_checkout_fields( $fields ) {
$fields['billing']['billing_phone'] = array(
'label' => __('Phone', 'woocommerce'),
'placeholder' => _x('Phone', 'placeholder', 'woocommerce'),
'required' => false,
'class' => array('form-row-wide'),
// Add these class names to the field's input tag class attribute (You can change them as per your requirement) These classes will be applied after WooCommerce default classes (which are mentioned above) );
return $fields;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , 'my_custom_checkout_fields' ); // Hook in(Replace “Phone” with whatever label you want for your field.)
