iv created custom checkboxes in the checkout page through the functions.php file but i would like one of them to be ticked how do i do this ?
woocommerce_form_field( 'my_checkbox1', array(
'type' => 'checkbox',
'class' => array('input-checkbox'),
'label' => __('Standard Shipping (2â7 Days, FREE!) <span>Most items are shipped FREE OF CHARGE within Thailand.</span>'),
'required' => false,
'value' => true,
), $checkout->get_value( 'my_checkbox1' ));
In WooCommerce checkboxes have always a value of ‘1’.
So you do not need to pass
'value' => true
: it does nothing.To set checkbox checked or not WooCommerce uses the WP checked function where 1 (integer) is compared with the value you pass as third param in
woocommerce_form_field
.Pass 1 as default and your checkbox will be checked as default.
I don’t think G. M.’s answer is correct.
As he alluded to, I don’t think it will make any difference what value you specify for the third parameter. (By the way, the ‘value’ element in the args array does not even exist – see http://docs.woothemes.com/wc-apidocs/source-function-woocommerce_form_field.html#1568-1787 )
What you need to do is set the ‘default’ value in the args array to 1. For example,
