How to remove WooCommerce product sorting

…is pretty easy to do as well. If you’ve never added a code snippet to your site, check out our tutorial on how to do so, and we can snip this sorting dropdown right out of the shop. The product sorting dropdown is added here, so all we need to do is remove that action so that it’s never added into our shop loop. To do so, add this snippet: remove_action( ‘woocommerce_before_shop_loop’, ‘woocommerce_catalog_ordering’, 30 ); Now we’ll have shop and…

How to Generate a Post Excerpt Outside the Loop

…off the first x words to generate the excerpt, but this isn’t really necessary (and is pretty messy). We can simulate what get_the_excerpt() does to generate an excerpt if one is not set by passing the full content into wp_trim_words() (WordPress 3.3+). This will generate an excerpt for us from the content, so we can use this if a post excerpt created by the user does not exist. The only argument you need to pass to wp_trim_words is the content y…

WooCommerce FreshBooks Updated to v3.6.0

…e FreshBooks rate. Basically, we’d pass the tax total and the plugin would say, “Hey, this is the total to use for XYZ tax rate on this invoice.” However, FreshBooks tries to apply the rate to this line item total instead of using the total for the tax. There’s no way for us to override this from the plugin side to force FreshBooks to recognize this as the right tax amount, so until FreshBooks supports more than 2 rates per line item, the plugin w…

Stop WooCommerce Customers from Editing Addresses

…make another tiny change. Change Account Welcome The account “Welcome” message mentioned editing addresses in the My Account template. Since I’ve removed this ability, I probably want to adjust this wording a bit. We can easily use the Say What plugin, or can use the gettext filter to translate this text. We’ll change this text to remove the mention of managing shipping and billing addresses. // Change the “My Account” welcome text function sv_ch…
