Adding labels to products in your WooCommerce store can help you keep track of inventory, alert customers to special promotions, and more. There are a few different ways to add labels to products in WooCommerce:
1. Use the WooCommerce Product Add-ons extension
The WooCommerce Product Add-ons extension lets you add custom fields to products in your store, which can then be used to add labels. To use this method:
- Install and activate the WooCommerce Product Add-ons extension.
- Create a new field group, and add the fields you want to use for your labels. For each field, you can set the type of input (e.g., text, checkbox, radio button), as well as whether the field is required.
- Add the field group to the product or products you want to add labels to.
- Publish your changes.
2. Use the WooCommerce Custom Fields extension
The WooCommerce Custom Fields extension lets you add custom fields to products, orders, customers, and coupons in your store. To use this method:
- Install and activate the WooCommerce Custom Fields extension.
- Create a new custom field, and select “Product” as the field type.
- Enter the label you want to use for your product label in the “Label” field.
- Select whether you want the label to be visible on the product page in the “Visible on Product Page” field.
- Publish your changes.
Once you’ve added your label, it will appear on the product page in the front end of your store.
3. Use HTML and CSS
If you’re comfortable working with HTML and CSS, you can add labels to products by editing your theme’s code.
For example, let’s say you want to add a “Sale” label to products that are on sale. You could do this by adding some code to your theme’s functions.php file:
function my_sale_label() {
global $product;
if( $product->is_on_sale() ) {
echo ‘<span class=”sale_label”>Sale!</span>’;
}
}
add_action( ‘woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item_title’, ‘my_sale_label’, 10 ); This code will check if a product is on sale, and if it is, it will output a “Sale!”
label.
You can then style this label using CSS.
Conclusion
There are a few different ways that you can add labels to products in WooCommerce. You can use the WooCommerce Product Add-ons extension, the WooCommerce Custom Fields extension, or you can edit your theme’s code.
