FAKTOR VIER

<p>With <a href="https://www.f4dev.ch" rel="nofollow ugc">F4 Simple Checkout Fields for WooCommerce</a> you can simply add new fields to the WooCommerce checkout. There is no UI to manage the fields, they only can be added with a simple PHP method. That ensures that the plugin is lightweight and easy to handle, even though you need simple PHP knowledge and access to the file system to add the code (preferred your WordPress theme).</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<p>If you first install this plugin, it will do nothing. But it provides a method to add as many custom fields to your checkout as you need. Here’s a sample how you could add a simple text field to the billing and shipping address:</p>
<pre><code>add_action('init', function() {
    F4\WCSCF\Core\Helpers::register_field(array(
        'name' => 'demo-text',
        'type' => 'text',
        'label' => 'Text Field'
    ));
});
</code></pre>
<h3>Arguments</h3>
<p>The register_field method provides a lot of arguments to customize your fields. Some of the arguments are identically to <a href="https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/tutorial-customising-checkout-fields-using-actions-and-filters/" rel="nofollow ugc">the officiel WooCommerce arguments</a>:</p>
<pre><code>F4\WCSCF\Core\Helpers::register_field(array(
    // (array) Defines where the field should be added
    // billing = billing address, shipping = shipping address
    'target' => array('billing', 'shipping'),

    // (string) The internal name for the field. Must be unique
    'name' => '',

    // (string) The field type (text, textarea, password, select)
    'type' => 'text',

    // (string) The field label
    'label' => '',

    // (string) The description
    'description' => '',

    // (string) The placeholder for the input (only text, textarea or password)
    'placeholder' => '',

    'class' => array(),

    // (array) An array with field options (only for field type select)
    // Array key => value pairs: array('value' => 'Label')
    'options' => array(),

    // (string|array) Defines the position, where the field should be added
    // last = append after the last field
    // first = prepend before the first field
    // array('before' => 'fieldname') = prepend before the defined field
    // array('after' => 'fieldname') = append after the defined field
    'position' => 'last', // 'first', 'last', array('before' => ''), array('after' => '')

    // (string) The delimiter that should be used in the formatted address outputs
    'formatted_address_delimiter' => "\n",

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed after the formatted address in the order backend or not
    'show_after_formatted_admin_order_address' => false,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field label should be prepended before the field value in formatted address
    'show_formatted_address_label' => false,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed in the account address forms
    'show_in_address_form' => true,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed in the checkout forms
    'show_in_order_form' => true,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed in the formatted address
    'show_in_formatted_address' => true,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed in the admin user form
    'show_in_admin_user_form' => true,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed in the admin order form
    'show_in_admin_order_form' => true,

    // (boolean) Defines if the field should be displayed in the privacy customer data
    'show_in_privacy_customer_data' => true,

F4 Simple Checkout Fields for WooCommerce

Adds custom fields to the WooCommerce checkout.

WordPress.org

<p>Secure Custom Fields (SCF) extends WordPress’s capabilities, transforming it into a flexible content management tool. With SCF, managing custom data becomes straightforward and efficient.</p>
<p><strong>Easily create fields on demand.</strong><br />
The SCF builder makes it easy to add fields to WordPress edit screens, whether you’re adding a new “ingredients” field to a recipe or designing complex metadata for a specialized site.</p>
<p><strong>Flexibility in placement.</strong><br />
Fields can be applied throughout WordPress—posts, pages, users, taxonomy terms, media, comments, and even custom options pages—organizing your data how you want.</p>
<p><strong>Display seamlessly.</strong><br />
Using SCF functions, you can display custom field data in your templates, making content integration easy for all levels of developers.</p>
<p><strong>A comprehensive content management solution.</strong><br />
Beyond custom fields, SCF allows you to register new post types and taxonomies directly from the SCF interface, providing more control without needing additional plugins or custom code.</p>
<p><strong>Accessible and user-friendly design.</strong><br />
The field interface aligns with WordPress’s native design, creating an experience that’s both accessible and easy for content creators to use.</p>
<p>Installing this plugin will deactivate plugins with matching function names/functionality, specifically Advanced Custom Fields, Advanced Custom Fields Pro, and the legacy Secure Custom Fields plugins, to avoid code errors (this is the same behavior as ACF Pro).</p>

Secure Custom Fields


In case anyone is not clear - this is a "nulled" plugin - an exact copy of the paid support Pro version of Advanced Custom Fields, with the code to handle licensing and updates stripped out. This clearly part of the petty high school drama playing out between two multi million dollar for-profit companies, and it is going to wreak havoc on the entire WordPress ecosystem.



Who's going to invest in creating great Pro plugins if everyone's always afraid that Wordpress.org itself is going to just rip them and put them up on the main plugin repo if they don't like you today.



The "freemium" model has created great jobs for a lot of small development shops and many individual designers and developers depend on the quality and support you get from paid Pro level plugins to do their jobs.



I have no particular love for WP Engine, but this sets a horrible new precedent that is going to put the livelihoods of may less powerful individuals at risk. It must be stopped now!


Unprecedented bad behavior


Hello, WordPress contributors,



I am using WordPress as a developer more than 5 years.



And I have also contributed. There are some plugins in the Repository WP Adminer, Library Viewer, Gift Wrapping for WooCommerce, with old these plugins have 100% 5-stars reviews.



But this behaviour is Unacceptable.



What are the GPL requirements? Here you just took Advanced Custom Field Pro, removed their license system, changed the plugin author details without copyright anywhere WP Engine (the author of ACF Pro) and you released it as yours.







Such other "marketplaces" do in the Web...



Is all this ethical?



I have also paid plugins! Are you going to take them also?



Trust in WordPress is being cloned with your actions...


Unacceptable behaviour


ACF disabled gallery field and broke few sites, changed to SCF and everything started to work again. Thank you!


Great replacement for ACF


I am pleased to observe the addition of numerous valuable features without the frequent reminders about upgrading to a premium version.


Work great, no add for premium

Secure Custom Fields boosts content management with custom fields and options. It deactivates Advanced Custom Fields to prevent duplicate code errors.
