I am trying to override a woocommerce plugin but somehow it wont work.
In my custom theme I added the following in functions.php
function add_theme_wc_support() {
add_theme_support('woocommerce');
add_theme_support('woocommerce-composite-products');
}
add_action('after_setup_theme', 'add_theme_wc_support');
The directory for my template:
theme\templates\woocommerce-composite-products\single-product\template-file.php
I edited the template but nothing happened. I also tried to change the folder "woocommerce-composite-products" to just "woocommerce" but nothing.
My functions.php only contains the "add_theme_wc_support" function, so there cant be any conflicts.
How can I make this work?
Going by the comment you provided about how the plugin wants you to override the template your file path should look like this

I am doing some work on a site and everything is made in Divi.
I just want to build out a few custom woocommerce templates for product page etc.. using code but when I add the templates to the theme folder it doesn't override the product page.
When I look in debug query it shows the et page builder template is being used instead of regular product template.
Their docs are all geared up for non-coders and only code related stuff is on making modules.
How do I just make a normal template override from a child theme?
You just have to make sure your path to the template files is correct. For instance, if you're trying to overwrite the single-product template, which is located at:
wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/templates/single-product.php
just copy it to:
wp-content/themes/{your-child-theme}/woocommerce/single-product.php
and make your changes there.
For any template files, just match the path minus the templates folder.
If you have any caching plugins installed, you may need to clear your cache before the changes show up.
To test it, I copied single-product.php and product-image.php and made the following changes.
And you can see the result here:
If that doesn't work for you, make sure your child theme is set up correctly.
Edit: Divi's Theme Builder, once activated, causes the site to no longer use page templates. So there is no way (short of rewriting the Theme Builder) to override it with your own template files.
However, you can customize the Divi modules that are used by the Theme Builder, although editing them is a bit more complicated.
The modules are found in:
wp-content/themes/Divi/includes/builder/module/
For example, I'll override the WooCommerce Title module.
wp-content/themes/Divi/includes/builder/module/woocommerce/Title.php
First, copy that file into your child theme and place it in a new folder:
wp-content/themes/Divi-child/custom-modules/Title.php
Next, add the following code your child theme's functions.php to replace the existing module:
function divi_child_theme_setup() {
if ( class_exists('ET_Builder_Module')) {
get_template_part( 'custom-modules/custom-title' );
$TE_ct = new Custom_ET_Builder_Module_Woocommerce_Title();
remove_shortcode( 'et_pb_wc_title' );
add_shortcode( 'et_pb_wc_title', array($TE_ct, '_shortcode_callback') );
}
}
add_action('wp', 'divi_child_theme_setup', 9999);
Call your variable ($TE_ct) and the module (Custom_ET_Builder_Module_Woocommerce_Title) whatever you want.
Finally, edit the module in your child theme. Make sure the class name matches what you used in functions.php.
...
class Custom_ET_Builder_Module_Woocommerce_Title extends ET_Builder_Module {
/**
* Initialize.
*/
public function init() {
echo "<h1>CUSTOMIZED!!</h1>";
$this->name = esc_html__( 'Woo Title', 'et_builder' );
$this->plural = esc_html__( 'Woo Titles', 'et_builder' );
$this->slug = 'et_pb_wc_title';
$this->vb_support = 'on';
...
Here, I've added a simple echo to show that the module is being overridden.
Result:
I'm build a wordpress theme and I've created in my style.css a custom class for the plugin: Social Count plus
The problem's that plugin use an own css called counter.css what I need to do is prevent the inclusion of this css, so I've inserted this line in my functions.php:
wp_dequeue_style( 'counter' );
unfortunately the style is even included during the site reload. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
Try this:
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', function() {
wp_dequeue_style('social-count-plus');
wp_deregister_style('social-count-plus');
});
Just leave the counter.css file in place but either empty it out or comment everything out. It can't load what's not there. Be aware though, and update to that plugin might add the contents of that file back.
I have directly modified the class-wc-checkout.php file from includes folder in woocommerce plugin to add custom line item meta data. Is there any way to override the class-wc-checkout.php file from my-theme folder as we override template files in woocommerce?
I was having this same issue. I don't have a need for reviews on my site, so I copied what I wanted to remove from a file inside of the includes folder and copied it into my functions.php file like so:
// Remove reviews from WooCommerce
if (! function_exists( 'woocommerce_default_product_tabs')) {
function woocommerce_default_product_tabs($tabs = array()) {
}
}
Works for me!
Only Templates folder files can be override by coping it into your child theme.
For all other files like in includes folder files you can either edit it or use hooks and filters to do so.
I'm not too sure what you are editing for the Woocommerce plugin but yes you can override the woocommerce plugin by adding these hooks and filters to your functions.php file in your theme:
http://docs.woothemes.com/document/hooks/
Example
You need to edit file: /plugins/woocommerce/includes/shortcodes/class-wc-shortcode-products.php
Copy this file to themes/YOURTHEME/inc/class-wc-shortcode-products.php
Add to function.php:
require 'inc/class-wc-shortcode-products.php';
What seems to work for me is to put the file here:
/wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/includes/class-wc-checkout.php
The difference between the other suggestion and mine is that I don't have the 'woocommerce' folder in the path.
Yes you should be able to do this by uploading to this folder
/wp-content/themes/YOURTHEME/woocommerce/includes/class-wc-checkout.php
I want to add a shortcode tag in the sidebar/widget.
I am able to get the required function if I add the code in the theme's functions.php file:
add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
My problem is that I am searching for a way I can do this from the plugins files itself without affecting any of the theme files.
Is this possible?
That's a matter of creating your own Functionality Plugin. Everything that is theme-independent should go in your own set of plugins. In this case, it would be simply:
<?php
/**
* Plugin Name: Add text shortcode to widgets
*/
add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
Upload the file to the plugins folder and activate. You can have hundreds of plugins like this, if the code is solid, there's no problem on doing it and you can easily enable/disable custom functionality of the site.

I'm trying to customize the standard woocommerce theme and so far that has worked well. I copied all template files from /plugins/woocommerce/templates to /mytheme/woocommerce and customized the files.
But when i'm change something in archive-product.php nothing happens? I even tried to customize this in the core files (/plugins/woocommerce/templates/archive-product.php) but i doesn't work.
I want to change the class of the h1 heading: <h1 class="page-title"><?php woocommerce_page_title(); ?></h1>.
So i looked up all woocommerce template files, the class page-title occurs only in this one file (to prevent editing the wrong file).
Edit:
In detail, i want to customize the theme used in this path: http://example.com/product-category/mycategory
I tried all the above solutions, to no avail. No matter what I did, the archive-product.php was not being used at all. Instead, most woocommerce pages were using page.php from my theme.
The solution for me was to add theme support... Which, it's been a while since I used woocommerce, so I completely forgot about that. But after adding the following line to my functions.php file, archive-product.php is now being used (/mytheme/woocommerce/archive-product.php) and I can update it, as I should be able to.
add_theme_support('woocommerce');
Seems this is STILL an issue in Woocommerce. For anyone landing here, the following solution was working for me as of version 2.1.6.
Apparently the problem is due to the function woocommerce_content() outputting the wrong page for archive content.
I used the following to get around it:
replace woocommerce_content() in woocommerce.php with:
if ( is_singular( 'product' ) ) {
woocommerce_content();
}else{
//For ANY product archive.
//Product taxonomy, product search or /shop landing
woocommerce_get_template( 'archive-product.php' );
}
Credit: found the solution here
Here's how I fixed mine:
Delete woocommerce.php in your theme folder.
Copy TEMPLATE folder in woocommerce plugin dir, paste it in your THEME folder, and rename it to woocommerce.
Open the folder you just renamed, go to shop folder, and edit wrapper-start.php and wrapper-end.php.
If you use the woocommerce.php method you cannot customize archive-product. You must use the hooks method
http://docs.woothemes.com/document/third-party-custom-theme-compatibility/
Please note: when creating woocommerce.php in your theme’s folder, you won’t be able to override the woocommerce/archive-product.php custom template as woocommerce.php has the priority over archive-product.php. This is intended to prevent display issues.
For others searching here, doublecheck the path. It is for example not /mytheme/woocommerce/templates/archive-product.php but only /mytheme/woocommerce/archive-product.php. I didn't have to apply #Talk nerdy to me's patch or any other to make it work.
you need to edit the file "taxonomy-product_cat.php" and add a conditional is_product_category( 'mycategory' ).
open your theme folder and add a new subfolder named "woocommerce" to it.
copy the files "archive-product.php" and "taxonomy-product_cat.php" from /plugins/woocommerce/templates to the woocommerce subfolder in your theme.
rename "archive-product.php" to "archive-mycategory.php" (or whatever you like, this will be the template file to the category).
open "taxonomy-product_cat.php" and wrap the wc_get_template( 'archive-product.php' ); with:
if (is_product_category( 'mycategory' )){
wc_get_template( 'archive-mycategory.php' );
} else {
wc_get_template( 'archive-product.php' );
}
