Change checkbox label (checkout block)

Hey @bugnumber9

You’re absolutely correct! The mailchimp_woocommerce_newsletter_field filter hook does not work with WooCommerce’s block-based checkout. This is a known limitation because the block-based checkout uses a different rendering system than the traditional checkout hooks.

Workarounds and Solutions:

Unfortunately, there isn’t currently a direct way to customize the newsletter checkbox label in the block-based checkout through the plugin’s existing filter system. This request is with our dev team to prioritize a solution – until then, here are your options:

Option 1: Use Classic Checkout

If label customization is critical, you might consider reverting to the classic checkout template, where the filter hooks work as expected.

Option 2: Custom Block Development

You would need to create a custom checkout block or modify the existing Mailchimp block through WooCommerce’s block extension system, but this requires significant development work.

Option 3: JavaScript/CSS Workaround

As a temporary solution, you could use JavaScript to modify the label text after the page loads, though this isn’t ideal from a user experience perspective.

Hopefully this helps – remember to check github periodically for feature updates.
