How Do I Get a WooCommerce Shortcode?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 10:25 pm

WooCommerce shortcodes are a great way to add eCommerce functionality to your WordPress site. There are many shortcodes available, and they can be used to add products, checkout forms, carts, and more.

To use a WooCommerce shortcode, you first need to add the code to your WordPress site. You can do this by adding the code to your theme’s functions.php file or by creating a new plugin.

Once you have added the code to your site, you can then use the shortcode in your posts and pages. To use a shortcode, you simply need to add the shortcode tag to your post or page.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with coding or website development, do not attempt to add a WooCommerce shortcode to your site. Shortcodes are a series of code that allow developers to create complex functions and features for websites. If you do not know how to code, you can inadvertently break your site or create errors that are very difficult to fix.

For example, let’s say you want to use the [woocommerce_cart] shortcode. You would add the following code to your post or page:

[woocommerce_cart]

This would display the cart on your post or page.
