Using WooCommerce without online ordering?

    Not a technical support question but rather a question about using WooCommerce in a different way:

    My company has several products we want to show on our new website. We don’t take orders or show pricing online. Everything is call/email for a quote. But we need an easy way to maintain, categorize, and most importantly to compare products. I’m looking at the WooCommerce Compare plugin from a3rev for this feature, but it needs WooCommerce.

    How easy is it to “shut off” the online transaction features of WooCommerce and just use it for displaying product information?

    (We may decide to offer products for online ordering in the future, so having an e-commerce back-end could really help.)

  • Don’t know if this is what you’re looking for, but I’ve just removed the Add to Cart function.

    Insert this into child themes functions.php

    // Remove Add to cart
function remove_loop_button(){
remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'woocommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart', 10 );
remove_action( 'woocommerce_single_product_summary', 'woocommerce_template_single_add_to_cart', 30 );
}
add_action('init','remove_loop_button');

    OK, thanks! We’ll take a look at that once we’re up and running.

    The following extension for WooCommerce will allow you to put your site in Catalog Mode… https://www.woothemes.com/products/catalog-visibility-options/

    People will be able to see your products but not purchase them. It turns off the eCommerce functionality.
