Changelog
Added
- Custom fields: add your own text fields to any checkout slot from the Checkout Editor - text area, dropdown, radio button and checkbox fields are available on a paid plan
- Custom fields: mark a field required, cap how many characters it accepts, and show it only for the carts and customers you choose with display conditions
- Custom fields: add a fixed or percentage fee to a field, charged when the customer fills it in - shown in the label and added to the order
- Custom fields: what the customer entered is saved to the order, and shown on the order screen, in their order details and in order emails
Improved
- Checkout Editor: the Fields, Footer and Advanced sections are gone - their settings now sit under Typography, Addresses, Cart Summary and a new Other section
- Checkout Editor: settings now use standard checkboxes rather than eye on and off toggles, which stay for showing and hiding billing address fields
- Checkout Editor: every settings section now has an icon, and a warning about a setting appears directly beneath that setting
- Checkout Editor: the Billing Address Fields setting now links to an explanation of what removing a field does to the order before you turn one off
- Checkout Editor: new Company Field and Address 2 Field settings, alongside the existing Phone Field, for the three fields WooCommerce controls itself
- Checkout Editor: a billing field WooCommerce has hidden is no longer listed under Billing Address Fields, where its toggle could not do anything
- Checkout Editor: turning off a billing field that WooCommerce requires, or one a payment gateway checks the card against, now flags the field and explains what it costs
- Checkout Editor: set the size of your header logo, and the space around it, in the new Logo section
- Checkout Editor: the Add item menu on a slot is now larger and can be searched, so finding a field no longer means scrolling
- Checkout Editor: an open settings section now stands apart from the ones around it, and the lines between individual settings are lighter
- Checkout Editor: a heading added to a slot now starts at H2 rather than H4
- Checkout Editor: the Live and Preview menu now explains that a checkout in preview is only shown to logged-in administrators
Other
- Accessibility - Checkout, order pay and thank you pages no longer expose a second main landmark on the order review column
- Localization - Added Icelandic (is_IS) translations
Fixed
- Cart summary: the remove button, when enabled, now sits in its own column after the price, so every item price lines up - an item a plugin makes non-removable no longer sits out of line
- Cart summary: the remove button, when enabled, is always visible rather than appearing on hover, so it can be reached by keyboard and on touch devices
- Checkout: the phone field is now optional where WooCommerce says it is optional - previously it was treated as required whenever the WooCommerce setting had never been saved
- Checkout Editor: the first item you add to a slot in a session now stays where you put it - previously it could be silently dropped if the editor refreshed its slots at the same moment
- Checkout Editor: the preview now scrolls to the slot you just changed after saving an item in its modal, instead of reloading back at the top
- Checkout Editor: the logo thumbnail in the settings panel now updates as soon as you choose a new logo, and no longer reverts to the previous one after saving
- Checkout Editor: opening the Add item menu on one slot now closes the menu already open on another, instead of leaving the two overlapping
- Checkout Editor: placing an order from the preview now returns you to your checkout, and the editor points out the real order that was created
- Checkout slots: a field in the After Delivery Method slot no longer loses keyboard focus every time the checkout totals refresh
- Order summary: what a customer types into the promo code field, or into a field placed in an order summary slot, no longer overlaps the field's label
- SiteGround Speed Optimizer: the checkout, order pay and thank you pages no longer lose their form or styling when JavaScript or CSS optimization is on - Speed Optimizer names its optimized copies after the asset handle, so another page on your store could leave the wrong file cached under ours
- Turning off Order Notes now removes only the notes field, instead of also hiding checkout fields other plugins add to that section, such as a VAT ID field
