change the "add to cart" into another link, only in some categories

Resolved

(@peorthyr)

Good day all.
I’ve added this function to the theme:

function western_custom_buy_buttons(){

   $product = get_product();

   if ( has_term( 'exclusive', 'product_cat') ){

       // removing the purchase buttons

       remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'woocommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart' ); 

       remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_add_to_cart', 30 );

       remove_action( 'woocommerce_simple_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_simple_add_to_cart', 30 );

       remove_action( 'woocommerce_grouped_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_grouped_add_to_cart', 30 );

       remove_action( 'woocommerce_variable_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_variable_add_to_cart', 30 );

       remove_action( 'woocommerce_external_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_external_add_to_cart', 30 );

   }

}

add_action( 'wp', 'western_custom_buy_buttons' );

but instead of just removing the button, I’d like to add a simple text/link, so for some categories, the add to cart button is not shown, and a different link si shown instead.

does anyone has a clue?

You’re missing a 3rd arg https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/has_term

Pass in global $post;

global $post;

if ( is_single() && has_term( 'exclusive', 'product_cat', $post ) ){

oh, you are right. Thanks, well, it was an optional parameter, I thought it wasn’t an issue.
by the way, this has no impact on the possibility to add something different instead of the add to cart button, am I wrong?

This removes buttons but you have no added code to add a new button yet.

So with every remove_action, you will need and add_action as well for the same hook. Then just create a simple function that outputs your simple text/link.

Something like this:

function western_custom_buy_buttons(){
  global $post;

  if ( is_single() && has_term( 'exclusive', 'product_cat', $post ) ){
      // removing the purchase buttons
      remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'woocommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart' );
      add_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart' );

      remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_add_to_cart', 30 );
      add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart', 30 );

      remove_action( 'woocommerce_simple_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_simple_add_to_cart', 30 );
      add_action( 'woocommerce_simple_add_to_cart', 'wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart', 30 );

      remove_action( 'woocommerce_grouped_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_grouped_add_to_cart', 30 );
      add_action( 'woocommerce_grouped_add_to_cart', 'wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart', 30 );

      remove_action( 'woocommerce_variable_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_variable_add_to_cart', 30 );
      add_action( 'woocommerce_variable_add_to_cart', 'wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart', 30 );

      remove_action( 'woocommerce_external_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_external_add_to_cart', 30 );
      add_action( 'woocommerce_external_add_to_cart', 'wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart', 30 );
   }
}
add_action( 'wp', 'western_custom_buy_buttons' );

function wc_ninja_custom_add_to_cart() {
  echo '<a href="#" class="button">Button</a>';
}

wow…simple and effective, maybe I had to make sure the function is fired only once, but I’ll test it soon, so I should handle this issue if it presents.

well, this is very usefull, thanks a lot Caleb.
