About Custom Add To Cart Button for WooCommer…
From the official readme · v1.2.6Description
Custom Add To Cart Button for WooCommerce is a simple plugin to customize your store’s add to cart buttons. It makes it easy to change the ‘Add to cart’ button text, add a cart icon to the button, replace the text with just an icon, or change the background and text color.
There are lots of reasons why you might want to change the add to cart text. Depending on how you’re using WooCommerce you might want the button to say something different like ‘Add to quote’, ‘Buy Now’, ‘BOOK EVENT’, ‘Enrol’ or ‘Make an Enquiry’.
You might want to make the button more visual by adding a cart icon before the text. Or you may want to replace the button text and just show a cart icon. The plugin uses the same cart icon that is built into WooCommerce itself.
Add to cart button options:
- Change the WooCommerce add to cart button text
- Add a cart icon next to the text
- Remove the text and just show a cart icon
- Case sensitive, so you get full control over whether the add to cart button text appears in uppercase, lowercase or sentence case
- Change the WooCommerce add to cart button color
- Change the color of WooCommerce add to cart button text
Custom Add To Cart Button for WooCommerce is fully accessible. If you choose to display just the cart icon, the text is still present in the HTML and can be read by screen readers.
Options are set in the Customizer. Once installed, go to Appearance -> Customize -> WooCommerce -> Add to Cart Buttons and choose your settings.
Custom Add To Cart Button for WooCommerce is fully compatible with other Kestrel plugins, including:
- Express Shop Page – Select variations and quantities without leaving the shop page.
- Discontinued Products – Set WooCommerce products as “discontinued” without removing them from your store.
- Variation Prices – Improve the display of variation prices in your WooCommerce store.
- Product Sample – Let customers “try before they buy” with free or paid product samples.
Installation
- Install via the Plugins screen in your WordPress dashboard, or download the ZIP, extract it, and upload to the
/wp-content/plugins/directory. - Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen.
- Go to Appearance -> Customize, then go to WooCommerce -> Add to Cart Buttons to choose your settings.
- Change the Add To Cart button text and/or select the other options on this screen.
Frequently asked questions
Will it work with my theme?
The plugin inherits the styles from your theme. This means that the button size and font will be the same as the existing add to cart buttons in your store. The plugin will change the text and add an icon without affecting the overall button styling.
Can I choose a different icon, change the size, change colors, etc?
We’ve kept the plugin deliberately simple and it’s not currently possible to make other changes such as different icons. Please use the support tab or our feature request form if there’s anything else you’d like the plugin to do. We will add new features if there is enough demand.
