How Do I Change the Quick View Text in WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 18, 2023 @ 6:38 am

If you want to change the quick view text in WooCommerce, there are a few things you need to do. First, you need to edit the language file for WooCommerce. You can find this file at /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/i18n/languages.

Next, you need to edit the template file for the product page. You can find this file at /wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/templates/single-product.php.

Finally, you need to add some code to your theme’s functions.php file. This code will allow you to override the default WooCommerce template and use your own custom template.

Here is the code you need to add to your functions.php file:

function my_custom_template_for_product() {
$template = get_stylesheet_directory() . '/woocommerce/my-custom-template.php'; return $template;}
add_filter( 'wc_get_template', 'my_custom_template_for_product', 10, 5 );

Now that you have added the code to your functions.php file, you need to create a new file called my-custom-template.php and save it in your theme's /woocommerce/ directory.

In this new file, you can put whatever HTML and PHP code you want. However, there are a few things you need to keep in mind.

First, the quick view text is stored in a variable called $quick_view_text . Second, the style for the quick view text is set in the CSS file for your theme (usually style.css).

Here is an example of what your my-custom-template.php file could look like:

    <?php 

    // Get the quick view text 

    $quick_view_text = __( 'Quick View', 'woocommerce' ); 

    ?> 

    <div class="quick-view">

        <a href="#" class="quick-view-trigger">

            <?php echo $quick_view_text; ?> 

        </a> 

    </div> <!-- .quick-view -->

The above code will output a link with the text "Quick View". If you want to style this text, you can do so by adding CSS rules to your theme's style.css file. For example, if you want to make the quick view text bold and underlined, you would add the following CSS rules:

a.quick-view-trigger { 

    font-weight: bold; 

    text-decoration: underline;
