I’m trying to move custom fields that I created on my checkout page in the Shipping block.
What I’ve tried is this code: thise are the new fields
// Add a new checkout field
function filter_checkout_fields($fields){
$fields['extra_fields'] = array(
'some_field' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'required' => false,
'label' => __( 'Field 1:' )
),
'another_field' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'required' => false,
'label' => __( 'Field 2:' )
),
return $fields;
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields', 'filter_checkout_fields' );
// display the extra field on the checkout form
function extra_checkout_fields(){
$checkout = WC()->checkout(); ?>
<div class="extra-fields">
<h3><?php _e( 'Title' ); ?></h3>
<?php
// because of this foreach, everything added to the array in the previous function will display automagically
foreach ( $checkout->checkout_fields['extra_fields'] as $key => $field ) : ?>
<?php woocommerce_form_field( $key, $field, $checkout->get_value( $key ) ); ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
<?php }
add_action( 'woocommerce_checkout_after_customer_details' ,'extra_checkout_fields' );
And this is how I’m trying to move them (replace current fields)
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields', 'another_group' );
function another_group( $checkout_fields ){
// 1. We assign a field array to another group here
$checkout_fields['some_field'] = $checkout_fields['shipping']['shipping_first_name'];
$checkout_fields['another_field'] = $checkout_fields['shipping']['shipping_last_name'];
// 2. Remove a field from a previous location
unset( $checkout_fields['shipping']['shipping_first_name'] );
unset( $checkout_fields['shipping']['shipping_last_name'] );
return $checkout_fields;
}
What is happening is that the ['shipping_first_name']
and ['shipping_last_name']
are removed (unset) but nothing appeared on their place.
Is this possible to happen at all?

Just unset the fields that you don't need as you do already but don't try to override them in this function
Then in your function where you have
[extra_fields]
change it to[shipping]
this will place the custom fields in the shipping block.you can set priority of custom field with your old field priority like below
$fields[‘shipping’][‘some_field’][‘priority’] = 10;
$fields[‘shipping’][‘another_field’][‘priority’] = 20;
