Topic Woo Checkout Editor - Multiple Custom Fields in notification mails

[iTurtle]

hi there,
i run into a few problems with the Woo Checkout Editor. btw. is this a plugin by theme.co?
i learned how to configure custom fields after a while.
on i named billing_salutation and options are Herr|Frau
now the problem is in the mails it is written without captial letters and appears 2 times at the wrong place (below the adress).
a screenshot in the secure note.
thanks for your help! all the best. kai

Hello Kai,

Thanks for writing in! The fields will be displayed as-is. There will be no text transformation when it is displayed. It is displayed the same as the input of the user. The order and the duplicate is a bug in the plugin. We’ve submitted this issue already to our issue tracker so the developers will be made aware of it.

Please bear with us.

hi rue,
thanks for your quick reply!
the display issue might be a bug in germanized (plugin for the german market) which produces the invoices… i will check that.
the other two issues are a problem of course. will it help to reset the woo checkout editor and start from scratch? because up to today i did not see the dublicats. only after deleting and redoing some extra fields.
thanks again, kai

Hello Kai,

Resetting the fields or starting from scratch may or may not help. It is worth a try though while waiting for our developers for a fix to this issue.

Thank you for your understanding.

thanks again. getting quicker and quicker
what about the beta8 of the next release? worth a try?
thanks a lot, kai

Hey Kai,

The theme’s beta 8 and the Woo Checkout Manager plugin are completely different builds. And the bug is in the plugin, therefore it would still not work if the bug in the plugin isn’t fixed yet.

Please bear with us.

dear rue,
thanks for the information.
i urgently need a working solution for changing checkout fields. there are many plugins out there. most of them too expensive.
would you have a tip for me as an alternative to your plugin?
thanks a million! best wishes, kai

Hi @iTurtle

You can use this third party plugin to edit the Woocommerce checkout field. https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-checkout-field-editor-pro/

Please note that we did not test the plugin from our end and we cannot support any third party plugin, it is against our support policy. Please test the plugin and keep if it works for you.

Thanks

i now reset the form fields and did some more testing.
the only field which is still doubling is the field “order_comments” under extras.
that is a standard field and works fine without the woo checkout editor. the moment i use the plugin the field is double in the email confirmation
the other problem is that i cannot change the english text of “addional info” which also clearly comes from your plugin. i really hope this can be translated easily. css?
please see screenshort from email confirmation. the double field is in german: anmerkung. then it repeats itself unter additional info.
thanks again and best wishes, kai

hi prakash,

meanwhile i wrote back to you. i resettet your plugin and only two problems remain. pls. see above.
thanks again for your help! best wishes, kai

Hey Kai,

The “Additional info” text is translatable. You need to translate the Woo Checkout Editor plugin.

To translate, you can please check your options below.

• Manual Translation (recommended only for technical users) https://theme.co/docs/theme-translations
• Using a Plugin https://www.wpbeginner.com/showcase/9-best-translation-plugins-for-wordpress-websites/
• Quick but dirty solution. Add the following code in your child theme.

add_filter( 'gettext', 'x_translate_woocommerce_strings', 999, 3 );
  
function x_translate_woocommerce_strings( $translated, $untranslated, $domain ) {
 
   if ( ! is_admin() && 'tco_woo_checkout' === $domain ) {
 
      switch ( $translated) {

         case 'Additional info' :
 
            $translated = 'Translated Text';
            break;
       
      }
 
   }   
  
   return $translated;
 
}

Please note that we cannot assist in all those cases. If you encounter an issue with both methods, please consult with a developer.

Hope that helps and thank you for understanding.

dear christian,
thanks a million for the code!!! i used this “quick and dirty” solution
i resetted the settings and redid all the extra fields once more and now it looks good.
the only strange thing which remains is that the addional infos (anmerkungen) field still appears 2 times.
it that the bug which will be fixed in one of the future updates?
btw: i would be really nice to be able to edit the options for each field after the first time saving. the way it is now i have to delete the whole entry/field and redo it do have different options. maybe for a future update, too?
best wishes, kai

Hi Kai,

I just check the new order email template and I don’t see that anmerkungen fields appear 2 times. If you are referring to the image below, I just check that you change the “Additional info” was translated to “Anmerkungen zur Bestellung”.

That’s the only thing, I see on the email template that has a double text. Please let us know if you are referring to something else.

Hope that helps.

Thank you.
