Just so you know, there is no need to hardcode WooCommerce URLs in your custom code! In fact, WooCommerce gives us helpful shortcut functions that we can reuse in our code to get cart, checkout, account and product URLs without wondering if they have been modified by the website owner e.g. example.com/cart to example.com/basket.
In this way, you can always make sure you’re getting the correct URLs without wasting time looking for page/product slugs. Enjoy!
No need to hardcode “https://——-.h4.conves.io/cart/” in my custom WooCommerce code… I can just use wc_get_cart_url()! Find more shortcuts below.
WooCommerce Product URL
/* On a single product page */ get_the_permalink() /* If you have the product ID */ get_permalink( $product_id ) /* If you have the $product object */ $product->get_permalink()
WooCommerce Cart URL
WooCommerce Checkout URL
WooCommerce Shop URL
wc_get_page_permalink( ‘shop’ )
WooCommerce My Account URLs
/* My Account Page */ wc_get_page_permalink( ‘myaccount’ ); /* My Account Endpoints */ wc_get_account_endpoint_url( ‘edit-address’ ); wc_get_account_endpoint_url( ‘edit-account’ ); wc_get_account_endpoint_url( ‘payment-methods’ ); wc_get_account_endpoint_url( ‘lost-password’ ); wc_get_account_endpoint_url( ‘customer-logout’ ); wc_get_account_endpoint_url( ‘dashboard’ ); // ETC.
WooCommerce Product Category / Product Tag URL
get_term_link( ‘tables’, ‘product_cat’ ) get_term_link( ‘mixed’, ‘product_tag’ )
WooCommerce Thank You Page URL
wc_get_endpoint_url( ‘order-received’, $order_id, wc_get_checkout_url() )

Where to add custom code?
You should place PHP snippets at the bottom of your child theme functions.php file and CSS at the bottom of its style.css file. Make sure you know what you are doing when editing such files – if you need more guidance, please take a look at my guide “Should I Add Custom Code Via WP Editor, FTP or Code Snippets?” and my video tutorial “Where to Place WooCommerce Customization?”
Does this snippet (still) work?
Please let me know in the comments if everything went as expected. I would be happy to revise the snippet if you report otherwise (please provide screenshots). I have tested this code with Storefront theme, the WooCommerce version listed above and a WordPress-friendly hosting.
