Hooks (actions and filters)
Here's an example of a useful step:
/** * Allow shortcodes in product excerpts */ if (!function_exists('_template_single_excerpt')) function _template_single_excerpt( $post ) global $post; if ($post->post_excerpt) echo '' . do_shortcode(wpautop(wptexturize($post->post_excerpt))) . '';
/** * Display product attribute archive links */ add_action( '_product_meta_end', 'wc_show_attribute_links' ); // if you'd like to show it on archive page, replace "_product_meta_end" with "_shop_loop_item_title" function wc_show_attribute_links() global $post; $attribute_names = array( '', '' ); // Add attribute names here and remember to add the pa_ prefix to the attribute name foreach ( $attribute_names as $attribute_name ) $taxonomy = get_taxonomy( $attribute_name ); if ( $taxonomy && ! is_wp_error( $taxonomy ) ) $terms = $terms = the wp_get_post_terms function( $post->ID attribute_name; $post->ID ) $terms_array = array() /If ( ! empty( $terms ) ) is_wp_error( $terms ) foreach ( term $terms) ) =$archive_link = Get_Term_Link( $term->slug and $attribute_name ) //$full_line equals"' . $archive_link . '">'. $term->name . ''; array_push( $terms_array, $full_line ); echo $taxonomy->labels->name . ': ' . implode( ', ' . $terms_array );
/** * Reorder product data tabs */ add_filter( '_product_tabs', 'woo_reorder_tabs', 98 ); function woo_reorder_tabs( $tabs ) $tabs['reviews']['priority'] = 5; // Reviews first $tabs['description']['priority'] = 10; // Description second $tabs['additional_information']['priority'] = 15; // Additional information third return $tabs;
Then, you can create a customized tab
/** * Add a custom product data tab */ add_filter( '_product_tabs', 'woo_new_product_tab' ); function woo_new_product_tab( $tabs ) // Adds the new tab $tabs['test_tab'] = array( 'title' => __( 'New Product Tab', '' ), 'priority' => 50, 'callback' => 'woo_new_product_tab_content' ); return $tabs; function woo_new_product_tab_content() // The new tab content echo 'New Product Tab'; echo 'Here\'s your new product tab. ';
For further information about how to use these functions check out this full list of hooks.
Templates for the global web pages
If you're using PHP code, another alternative is to create a global custom template for your product beginning at the beginning. Be aware that this approach will not work with block themes.
