Dynamic Methods for Getting WooCommerce Cart, Checkout & Store Page Links

Woocommerce is an awesome plugin for setting up an online store on WordPress that lets you sell anything from books to electronics.Woocommerce not only has powerful plugins and extensive help documentation, but it also builds a community that is super developer friendly.

If you want to make your online store more functional, you can add some extra plugins or utilize Woocommerce's special code (we call it "action hooks") to customize the functionality.

But to do that, you'll have to know some basic page links, such as the URLs for your shopping cart, checkout page, store page, and personal account page.

WooCommerce Default Page

The following list is the default woocommerce page.

• shopping cart page
• checkout page
• store page
• My Account Page

When you install the Woocommerce plugin, it automatically creates some pages for you, such as Shopping Cart, Checkout and My Account. If you want to change the name of these pages, for example changing "Shopping Cart" to "Basket", that's perfectly fine, you just have to tell Woocommerce so it knows where the new "Basket "page.

And, if you want to add something special to these pages, Woocommerce also provides some simple code like

,and [woocommerce_myaccount] like this, put it on the page to show the corresponding function. Simply put, Woocommerce allows you to tweak various parts of your online store as you wish.

Get WooCommerce Shopping Cart Page URL

To get the woocommerce shopping cart page URL, you can use the wc_get_cart_url()function to display the cart page URL or create a link to the cart.

$cart_url = wc_get_cart_url();
echo "<a href='/en/" .$cart_url. "/'>Cart</a>";

Do you want to get a link to the "Shopping Cart" page on your website? It's easy, there's a ready-made function that can do it for you without adding any extra information. The function iswc_get_page_permalink('cart')This function is based on another function that automatically finds the link to the "Shopping Cart" page. This function is actually based on another functionwc_get_page_id('cart')The latter is used to get the ID of the "Shopping Cart" page. it's as simple as that, and you can find the link to the page you need with a single line of code!

Get WooCommerce Checkout Page URL

There is a super easy way to get a link to your Woocommerce online store's checkout page - just use thewc_get_checkout_url()This function. When you write this function in your code and use theechoCome run it and it will immediately show a link to the checkout page. That's it, one step at a time, easy!

If you need the page ID, you can also use thewc_get_page_id('checkout')to get it.

checkout endpoint

In Woocommerce, besides ordinary page links, there are some special links, we call them "checkout endpoints". These endpoint links can not be accessed directly by typing in the browser, they are used to display different information according to the user's different actions during the checkout process. To learn more about or set up these checkout endpoints, you can find them in the "Advanced" tab of Woocommerce settings. As shown in the image below.

To get links to specific steps in the Woocommerce checkout process, such as the payment page, you can't just use thewc_get_checkout_url()Functions like this are cobbled together by adding 'order-pay' to the end. Doing it this way might give you an error if you change the settings afterward.

The correct way to do this is to usewc_get_endpoint_url()This function then tells it the name of the endpoint, such as 'order-pay', as an argument. Here's a simple code example to help you understand how it works:

wc_get_endpoint_url( 'order-pay', '', wc_get_checkout_url() );

In this line of code, the first parameter is the name of the endpoint, the second parameter is blank, and the third parameter is the URL of the checkout page.

This feature also has filter hooks that can be used for customizationwoocommerce_get_checkout_urlThe

Get WooCommerce Store Page URL

If you want to dynamically fetch the woocommerce store page URL, you can use thesewc_get_page_permalink()function. See the following code example.

$shop_url = wc_get_page_permalink('shop');
echo "<a href='/en/". $shop_url ."/'>Shop</a>";

To get a link to your Woocommerce store's home page, you can use two functions together. First use thewc_get_page_id()function, put "store" as a parameter, this function will tell you the ID of the store page, and then, put this ID into theget_permalink()function, you can get the full link to the store page.

If you want to change the link to your store page, then go to the Woocommerce settings and find the "Products" tab. There you will see an option to select a page as the store page. Once you select and save the page, Woocommerce will use the page you selected as your new store page.

Get the WooCommerce My Account Page URL

To get the woocommerce my account page URL, you can use thewc_get_page_permalink()function and set the 'myaccount' slug is passed as an argument.

$myaccount_url = wc_get_page_permalink( 'myaccount' );
echo "<a href='/en/". $myaccount_url ."/'>My Account</a>";

My Account Endpoints

On Woocommerce's "My Account" page, customers can do a lot of things, such as view their orders, check order details, edit personal account information, choose payment methods, and more. All of this is accomplished through special links, or "endpoints" as we call them. These endpoints help customers easily navigate to different parts of their account page. The image below will help you visualize this feature.

To get links to specific sections on the My Account page, such as Order Details or Edit Account Info, you can use thewc_get_account_endpoint_url()This function. Just tell this function the name of that section as an argument and it will give you the appropriate link.

wc_get_account_endpoint_url( 'orders' );
wc_get_account_endpoint_url( 'view-order' );
//and so on

So, to get the links to the various pages in My Account, use that endpoint function and tell it the name of the section you want to link to, and it will dynamically generate the corresponding URL for you.
