Hi @zmavocet,

The site you’ve referenced literally has no validation other than making sure that something is entered into that field.

If you enter any series of characters whatsoever into that field, you’ll be able to add the product to the cart.

If that’s all you require, you can go with @crslz’s suggested plugin or the WooCommerce Product Add-Ons extension.

If you want to validate the entered code against a database, you’ll definitely need to write custom code to make that happen. I’d recommend speaking to your developer about building something for your use case.

If you don’t have a go-to developer, we highly recommend contacting one of the services on our customizations page: https://woocommerce.com/customizations/.

Cheers.

Hi @bench22,

Shipping costs are calculated on the cart and checkout pages as those are the last steps in the ordering process and everything that needs to be factored in can be factored in at that point.

If you want to calculate shipping costs on a different page, you’ll want to look around for a plugin that does what you’re looking for or speak to your developer about building something for you.

I found this plugin after a quick search and it supposedly allows you to display the shipping calculator on any page – https://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-shipping-calculator-on-product-page/11496815.

I’d recommend carrying out your due diligence to make sure it does what you need before going ahead with it.

Cheers

Hi @themassapothecary,

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.

Hi @vt121385,

We’re not able to provide support for premium products here in the community forum.

I presume that you have a current subscription for the WooCommerce Subscriptions extension, in which case, you’ll want to head to WooCommerce.com > My Account > Tickets and open support ticket.

We will be able to help you further there.

I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved now.

Hi @mediawebwp,

You won’t need to translate after every update unless the strings you’re translating are removed or new strings are added since you’re using the Loco Translate extension to handle things.

Hi @serkankurnaz,

Glad to hear that helped.

You don’t need to use a child theme unless you’re making modifications to the behaviour of the theme itself.

Regardless, I prefer to put custom code like this into the Code Snippets plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/.

This way, even if you change themes down the line (whether permanently, or temporarily to test something), the function will still be available and it will not be dependent on a theme since the functions.php file is theme-specific.

I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved now. If you have any further questions, I recommend creating a new thread.

Hi @eclipseprime1,

You can use the Loco Translate plugin to handle this. ven though you’re not translating to a different language, it also works for changing text in the same language to something else.
