What I am trying to do is change the checkout fields so that if a user is logged in they can't edit their billing email field.
This code below works great however ideally I want to remove the situation where users are able to have 2 email address in the first place and set the value of $address_fields['billing']['billing_email'] to be the users email address from their account.
I've tried adding
'value' => $current_user->user_email
and
'default' => $current_user->user_email
to the array however this appears to do nothing.
So:
$current_user->user_email the correct way to get the users account (contact) email and not the billing email from their account.function custom_checkout_fields( $address_fields ) {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
unset( $address_fields['billing']['billing_email'] );
unset( $address_fields['billing']['billing_em_ver'] );
$address_fields['billing']['billing_email'] = [
'label' => 'Email address',
'required' => false,
'description' => '<i><a href="/shop/my-account/customer-logout/">to change this please click here logout and login/register as another user</a> or <a href="/shop/my-account/edit-account/">click here to modify the address on your account</a></i>',
'custom_attributes' => [
'disabled' => 'disabled',
]
];
return $address_fields;
} else{
return $address_fields;
}
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields', 'custom_checkout_fields' ,20, 1 );
Firstly, go to /plugins/woocommerce/templates/checkout, copy the form-billing.php template file found in that folder and paste it in yourTheme/woocommerce/checkout/.
Secondly, prevent WooCommerce from auto-filling the email address field by editing the copied form-billing.php template file and changing the following snippet:
<div class="woocommerce-billing-fields__field-wrapper">
<?php
$fields = $checkout->get_checkout_fields( 'billing' );
foreach ( $fields as $key => $field ) {
woocommerce_form_field( $key, $field, $checkout->get_value( $key ) );
}
?>
</div>
To this:
<div class="woocommerce-billing-fields__field-wrapper">
<?php
$fields = $checkout->get_checkout_fields( 'billing' );
foreach ( $fields as $key => $field ) {
if ( 'billing_email' != $key ) {
woocommerce_form_field( $key, $field, $checkout->get_value( $key ) );
} else {
woocommerce_form_field( $key, $field );
}
}
?>
</div>
Thirdly, inject the WordPress email to the field, make it immutable and add your custom description by adding the following to your theme's functions.php file:
function shillongtitude_billing_email_field($fields) {
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
//set the user email as the email field value
$fields['billing']['billing_email']['default'] = $current_user->user_email;
//set the description
$fields['billing']['billing_email']['description'] = '<i><a href="/shop/my-account/customer-logout/">to change this please click here logout and login/register as another user</a> or <a href="/shop/my-account/edit-account/">click here to modify the address on your account</a></i>';
// set attributes
$fields['billing']['billing_email']['custom_attributes'] = array( 'readonly'=>'readonly', 'label' => 'Email address', 'required' => false );
return $fields;
} else {
return $fields;
}
}
add_filter('woocommerce_checkout_fields', 'shillongtitude_billing_email_field');
Use if you need changing user details while submitting new woo order
This function will compare checkout fields:
billing_first_name - billing_last_name - billing_email
with personal account fields:
first_name - last_name - display_name
and will update in case of discrepancy while submitting new order.
add_action('woocommerce_new_order', 'sync_woocommerce_email', 10, 2) ;
function sync_woocommerce_email( $order_id ) {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_cname = $current_user->display_name;
$user_fname = $current_user->first_name;
$user_lname = $current_user->last_name;
$user_fullname = $user_fname.' '.$user_lname;
$bill_fname = $current_user->billing_first_name;
$bill_lname = $current_user->billing_last_name;
$bill_fullname = $bill_fname.' '.$bill_lname;
if ($current_user->user_email != $current_user->billing_email) {
wp_update_user( array ( 'ID' => $current_user->ID, 'user_email' => $current_user->billing_email ) ) ;
}
if ($current_user->display_name != $bill_fullname) {
wp_update_user( array ( 'ID' => $current_user->ID, 'display_name' => $bill_fullname ) ) ;
}
}
