How Do I Change the Product Button in WooCommerce?

Last updated on December 21, 2022 @ 12:57 pm

In WooCommerce, the “Add to Cart” button is the most important button on your product pages. It’s the button that customers click on to add products to their shopping cart.

By default, WooCommerce uses a simple text link for the “Add to Cart” button. However, you can change this to a more eye-catching button using HTML and CSS.

To change the “Add to Cart” button in WooCommerce, you need to edit the product page template in your theme. The template file that you need to edit is called “single-product.php”.

You can find this file in your theme’s folder. Once you have found the file, open it up in a text editor and look for the following line of code:

This line of code calls the WooCommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart() function, which outputs the “Add to Cart” button. We need to replace this line of code with our own HTML code for the button.

Here’s an example of how you can do this:

PRO TIP: If you are not a qualified WooCommerce developer, do not attempt to change the product button in WooCommerce. Doing so could break your site.
<input type="button" value="<?php _e( 'Add to cart', 'woocommerce' ); 
  ?>" class="button alt" />

This will output a simple HTML button with the text “Add to cart”. You can style this button using CSS if you want to make it more eye-catching.

Conclusion:

In order to change the “add to cart” button in WooCommerce, simply find and edit the “single-product.php” template file in your theme’s folder. Then, look for the line of code that calls the WooCommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart() function and replace it with your own HTML code for the button.
