I have problem with a custom fields in WooCommerce.
I have tille of product (book) and i want add author with custom field. I done it with register in theme custom fields and i add new one with Wordpress custome field.
Custom fields call: product_author
(that is my) and mbt_publisher_name
(from theme)
I have found the template file title.php
in theme and in woocommerce directory.
I tried to add:
<?php echo get_post_meta($id, "product_author", true); ?>
and nothing change... orignal source from title.php
<?php
/**
* Single Product title
*
* @author WooThemes
* @package WooCommerce/Templates
* @version 1.6.4
*/
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
exit; // Exit if accessed directly
}
?>
<h2 itemprop="name" class="product_title entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
what should I do to display that custom field under title?
Where I can find that hook?
Thanks
If you look at the woocommerce template content-single-product.php
you will see this code (starting on line 54):
/**
* woocommerce_single_product_summary hook.
*
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_title - 5
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_rating - 10
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_price - 10
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_excerpt - 20
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_add_to_cart - 30
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_meta - 40
* @hooked woocommerce_template_single_sharing - 50
* @hooked WC_Structured_Data::generate_product_data() - 60
*/
do_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary' );
So woocommerce_template_single_title
is hooked in woocommerce_single_product_summary
action hook with a priority of 5
(so it comes first).
You can do it in 2 Ways:
1) you can use a custom function hooked in woocommerce_single_product_summary
hook with a priority between 6 to 9, this way:
add_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'custom_action_after_single_product_title', 6 );
function custom_action_after_single_product_title() {
global $product;
$product_id = $product->get_id(); // The product ID
// Your custom field "Book author"
$book_author = get_post_meta($product_id, "product_author", true);
// Displaying your custom field under the title
echo '<p class="book-author">' . $book_author . '</p>';
}
Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or theme) or also in any plugin file.
This code is tested and works on WooCommerce 3.0+
Or
2) You can edit directly the template single-product/title.php
located in the WooCommerce folder of your active theme (see below the reference about overriding WooCommerce templates through theme):
<?php
/**
* Single Product title
*
* @author WooThemes
* @package WooCommerce/Templates
* @version 1.6.4
*/
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
exit; // Exit if accessed directly
}
// Calling global WC_Product object
global $product;
$product_id = $product->get_id(); // The product ID
// Your custom field "Book author"
$book_author = get_post_meta($product_id, "product_author", true);
?>
<h2 itemprop="name" class="product_title entry-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<p class="book-author"><?php echo $book_author; ?></p>
Official reference: Template Structure + Overriding WooCommerce Templates via a Theme
I recommend you the first method because it's cleaner as it uses a hook and you will not need to make any changes if templates are updated. You should also better use a child theme…
