Make Billing and Shipping Fields Required
In this post we will show you how to make the fields on the Woocommerce Checkout Page required. You don’t need to set all fields to required, you can also choose only one or some fields.
This is how the Checkout Page look like before changing the code (some fields are already required, some are not required):
You can set the required fields by adding the following code to your functions.php file:
add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields', 'arrow_design_woo_filter_checkout_fields' );
function arrow_design_woo_filter_checkout_fields( $fields ) {
// Billing fields
$fields['billing']['billing_company']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_email']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_phone']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_state']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_first_name']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_last_name']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_address_1']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_address_2']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_city']['required'] = true;
$fields['billing']['billing_postcode']['required'] = true;
// Shipping fields
$fields['shipping']['shipping_company']['required'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_phone']['required'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_state']['required'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_first_name']['required'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_last_name'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_address_1'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_address_2'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_city'] = true;
$fields['shipping']['shipping_postcode'] = true;
return $fields;
}
This is how the Checkout Page look like after changing the code
