Adding a custom order field in WooCommerce is simple and only requires a few steps. First, you will need to login to your WordPress Dashboard and navigate to the WooCommerce > Settings page. From here, click on the “Checkout” tab and then on the “Custom Fields” tab.
On the Custom Fields page, you will see a section labeled “Add New Custom Field.” Here, you will need to enter a Field Label, which is how the field will be labeled on the checkout page.
Next, select whether the field is for billing, shipping, or both. Then, choose the Field Type. The options here are text, textarea, select, checkbox, radio button, and date picker.
After selecting the Field Type, you will need to fill in the rest of the options for that particular field type. For example, if you selected “text” as your Field Type, you would need to enter the Default Value and Placeholder Value for that field. Once you have finished filling out all of the options for your custom field, be sure to click the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the page.
Your custom field should now appear on the checkout page!
Next, you’ll need to choose a field type. For this example, we’ll use a text field. Give your field a label and set the required option to “yes” if you want this field to be required.
Finally, click on the “Save changes” button to save your changes.
Now that you’ve created your custom order field, it will appear on the WooCommerce order form.
