How to add/create Woocommerce Custom Product Type "template"

You’d create a new ‘add to cart’ template for your product type. Create a function named woocommerce_YOURTYPE_add_to_cart() and load HTML or a template there to handle it.

@mike Jolley first of thanks for your response but could provide a small code/plugin example that i could go off from (so i can understand it better) as the explanation you’ve given me is rather minimal and i’m by far an expert ??

I can only point you in the correct direction, not provide code. If you need someone to write it for you, consider jobs.wordpress.net.

Try creating a function like I mentioned. If you can get a custom template started, you should be able to start adding your own fields, and you can base it on our code.

First off before i continue i do have to say i’m making a plugin and not a theme (as these things seem to be vastly different).

I already created that function as you said (had found that before but it doesn’t really change anything or i’m doing something wrong)

function woocommerce_mytype_add_to_cart() {
        wc_get_template( WP_PLUGIN_DIR.'/mypluginname/templates/mytype.php' );
}

I also have my template, but don’t I miss a certain hook or… that lets woocommerce know that it should load my template instead of the standard product template
Also mytype’s extends WC_Product and not WC_Simple_Product (don’t know if it matters for this)

We are talking about single product pages right?

That shows where a custom action is used. So you’re just missing:

add_action( 'woocommerce_mytype_add_to_cart', 'woocommerce_mytype_add_to_cart' );
