Hide Coupon on Cart Page

Hey there,

Here’s the snippet that you’ll need:

If you only want to hide the coupon field on the cart, then you’ll just use the first part of the of the snippet related to the cart.

Hi Hannah,

Thanks for the help!
where about’s in my child theme should I place this?

Also When I insert it i get a “syntax error unexpected <“

Hi there!

You should either place it in your child theme’s functions.php file, or use a snippets plugin to manage snippets, such as this one:
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/code-snippets/

I’d recommend adding the entire snippet first. If that works, great – from there, you can remove sections that you don’t need.

Thanks Hannah,
would this be placed at the bottom of the functions php file in the child theme? or does it need to be placed in the cart php file?

If you aren’t sure about the functions.php file, I’d recommend using a plugin instead – it makes it quite a bit easier. I personally use a plugin, because it lets me switch themes without losing the snippets.

You can put it anywhere you like in the functions.php file, so long as you don’t put it in the middle of other code snippets.

Hi Hannah,
I get the follow syntax when I insert the code. Any advice would be appreciated….?

Hey there,

That’s a screenshot of the snippet code in some sort of editor. I’m not seeing any errors, though – it’s just displaying code.

My apologies Hannah,

Have tried again. thank you so much for your patience. I would rather include the code in the child theme functions file as I’m trying to keep the number of plugins to a minimum t=slow as not to slow things down.

Thanks again!

In this case, it doesn’t really matter if you’re using the Code Snippets plugin or the functions.php file. Either way, you’re adding extra code to the site.

Thanks for pointing out the syntax error. <php only belongs at the very beginning of the file, so should be removed here. It’s included in the snippet for completeness. You may need to include an ?> at the end of the file.

Thanks Hannah all sorted now. Really appreciate your assistance!

Glad that helped ??
