I was working on implementing my own pre-order system, where I set a is_preorder
custom field for each product.
I was trying to modify the WooCommerce’s Is_Purchasable
option so that, if the product has pre-order status and it’s already passed the pre-order deadline, it shouldn’t be able to be purchased. I’ve tried a bunch of ways, but nothing seems working.
Here’s something that I did (rough idea)
add_filter('woocommerce_is_purchasable', 'preorder_is_purchasable');
function preorder_is_purchasable() {
// this is a field added using 'Advance Custom Fields' plugin
$is_preorder = get_field('is_preorder');
if($is_preorder && "not yet passed deadline")
return true;
else
return false;
}
I don’t just wanna disable the add_to_cart
button, I also want to disable the functionality (should prompt error if user tried to add product by hardcoding in url).
How should I go on with this?
===========================================================================
Here’s my final code:
add_filter('woocommerce_is_purchasable', 'preorder_is_purchasable', 10, 2);
function preorder_is_purchasable( $is_purchasable, $object ) {
// this is a field added using 'Advance Custom Fields' plugin
$is_preorder = get_field('is_preorder', $object->id);
// if product is Pre-Order
if($is_preorder)
{
$today = date('Ymd');
// another field added using 'Advance Custom Fields' plugin
$preorder_deadline = get_field('preorder_deadline', $object->id);
if($today <= $preorder_deadline) // if not yet pass deadline
return true;
else
return false;
}
else
return $is_purchasable; // normal
Update 2019: please see dev_masta answer for correct solution nowadays.
Not sure if it solves the issue as this has to be tested on your own custom set up. But you’re using
get_field
wrong: if it is not used inside a Loop, you should provide the post ID.Analyzing the filter
woocommerce_is_purchasable
, we see that it takes two parameters, a boolean (is_purchasable
) and an object (WC_Product).Try this:
The accepted answer is a bit outdated today.
Instead of using
$object->id
you should use$object->get_id()
, otherwise you’ll get a PHP notice about incorrect use.I hope this will help someone, I’ve seen this (outdated) code all around the net..
