Customize checkout fields
-
Dear all,
I would like to customize the checkout page of Woocommerce by editing the php file as plugins seem not to be working for me. However, where can I edit the fields. In /domains/website.com/private_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/templates/checkout I see form-checkout.php and form-billing.php. But in there, I cannot find billing_address_2 that I like to make required rather than optional or for instance any other item such as billing_first_name, that I would like to copy and adjust to customize. In which php file can I find these items and after that is it correct that I should copy that php file to the folder /domains/website.com/private_html/wp-content/themes/themename/woocommerce/checkout? Or should I add a code to functions.php in /domains/website.com/private_html/wp-content/themes/themename?
Best regards,
Anne

Hi @annewp
A great deal depends on which checkout you’re using: Is this the old shortcode based checkout or the newer Gutenberg block based checkout? The answer here will determine whether you’d need with PHP (and likely plugins) or whether you’ll need JavaScript / React components.
In terms of forcing the billing address 2nd line to be required/visible (and assuming you’re using Block checkout), this can be set in the block settings directly:
