override function

  • I’d like to override a function in woocommerce, specifically –
    woocommerce/includes/wc-cart-functions.php (the wc_cart_totals_order_total_html function).

    I could edit the function directly (it outputs html that needs to be changed), but I’d prefer not to as I’ll lose changes on updates.

    I’m sure it’s a common thing, I’m just not quite sure how to go about doing that. If I copy the function to functions.php in my theme, I get an error about re-declaring the function.

    thanks.

  • If you have a child theme, you can copy the relevant file to your child theme and rewrite the copy. The copy will be used in preference to the WooCommerce version.

    thanks. I tried doing that, and it works if you are overriding files within woocommerce/templates but not wocommerce/includes.

    any other thoughts?

    Thanks for the correction!

    There’s a redefine function in the pecl runkit extension if you have access to your php environment, but that seems like hard work for this application.

    Depending on exactly what you want to do, there’s the possibility of just letting the function do its thing and then changing content with css using the content property.
