How to skip cart page on woocomerce for certain products only?

I added this to my functions.php file :

add_filter ('woocommerce_add_to_cart_redirect', 'woo_redirect_to_checkout');
function woo_redirect_to_checkout() {
$checkout_url = WC()->cart->get_checkout_url();
return $checkout_url;
}

But now, all the products are re-directing strait to check-out. I would like to have this option only in one product. Is that a way I can add a product ID to that same filer?

  1. You need to get the product when It is just added to cart , then check if for this product you want to redirect the cart page to checkout page . You need to change $desire_product = 'certain_product'; line on below code and It will definitely work.

    add_filter( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart_redirect', 'woo_redirect_checkout' );
    
    function woo_redirect_checkout() {
        global $woocommerce;
        $desire_product = 'certain_product';
        //Get product ID
        $product_id = (int) apply_filters( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart_product_id', $_POST['add-to-cart'] );
    
        //Check if current product is subscription
        if ( $product_id == $desire_product ){
            $checkout_url = $woocommerce->cart->get_checkout_url();
            return $checkout_url;
            exit;
        } else {
            $cart_url = $woocommerce->cart->get_cart_url();
            return $cart_url;
            exit;
        }
    }
    
  2. I wrote a little plugin for this, sharing it here. The plugin adds a small checkbox to the product metabox, so you can specify which products should trigger the automatic skip to checkout. Basically using the same woocommerce_add_to_cart_redirect filter as in the other answers, but providing the admin backend option to determine which products trigger the redirection.

  3. There are a few action hooks as well that you can use, for eg: woocommerce_add_to_cart which passes the product id to the callback function:

    add_action( 'woocommerce_add_to_cart', 'custom_add_to_cart', 10, 2 );
    
    function custom_add_to_cart( $cart_item_key, $product_id ) {
        // replace 123 with a valid product id
        if( 123 == $product_id ) {
            wp_redirect( WC()->cart->get_checkout_url() );
            exit;   
        }
    }
