    Hi,

    What is the best practice to include the custom function in woocommerce.

    Cause i noticed got two different functions.php which are in wp-includes/functions.php and wp-content/themes/twentytwenty/functions.php.

    If I put that custom function inside the theme folder, when updating theme the function will disappears. So i’ve include the function inside wp-content folder. But I’m not sure if it’s a best practice or not.

    Regards,

  • If you do not want this you can easily create a plugin yourself

    1) Navigate to the WordPress plugins folder
    2) Create a new folder for your plugin (my-functions-plugin)
    3) Create the main PHP file for your plugin (my-functions-plugin.php)
    4) Setup your plugin’s information

    <?php
/**
 * Plugin Name: My Functions Plugin
 * Plugin URI: https://www.mywebsite.com/my-functions-plugin
 * Description: My Functions Plugin.
 * Version: 1.0
 * Author: Your Name
 * Author URI: https://www.mywebsite.com
 */

//add_action( ... );

    5) Save and activate the plugin

    From now on you can place everything you would put in the functions.php file in your own plugin file
