About this plugin
OCW Checkout Logic for WooCommerce lets you control per product whether each WooCommerce checkout field is required, optional or hidden. When the cart contains multiple products, the strictest rule wins automatically.

⚠ Requires WooCommerce. The plugin filters WooCommerce checkout fields. Without WooCommerce active, the plugin has nothing to operate on — WordPress refuses to activate it via the Requires Plugins: woocommerce header.
Free features

PRO features
- Custom fields per product — add text, email, phone, textarea, dropdown or checkbox fields beyond Woo’s standard set. Saved as order item meta, automatically visible in admin order screen + customer emails.
- Conditional logic — “show field X when field Y equals value Z”. Lightweight JS rule engine on the checkout, no flicker.
- Per-category settings — configure checkout rules for an entire product category. Per-product overrides still win, category fills the gaps.
- Field validation patterns — built-in presets (Dutch postcode, KVK 8-digit, EU VAT, IBAN, Dutch phone) or your own regex. Runs server-side on woocommerce_checkout_process.
- Configuration templates — save the full checkout-fields configuration of a product as a named template (standard field statuses, custom fields, conditional logic, validation rules) and apply it to any other product in one click. Manage all templates from a dedicated submenu.
- Automatic updates via the OCW License Server.
- Priority support from Onne at OCW.
