To control where a custom field appears at checkout, use the Position Options in Custom Checkout Fields for WooCommerce. You pick a section and a priority number, and the field slots into the WooCommerce checkout accordingly.
Open the Position Options #
- Go to WPFactory > Custom Checkout Fields (also reachable at WooCommerce > Settings > Custom Checkout Fields).
- Open the tab for the field you want to place (for example Field #1).
- Scroll to the Position Options group.
Options reference #
| Label | Option ID | Default | Values |
|---|---|---|---|
| Section | alg_wc_ccf_section_1 |
Billing | Billing, Shipping, Account, Order notes |
| Priority (i.e., order) | alg_wc_ccf_priority_1 |
200 | Any number (lower shows higher) |
What each section means #
- Billing: places the field inside the billing address block.
- Shipping: places the field inside the shipping address block.
- Account: places the field with the account fields shown when a customer creates an account during checkout.
- Order notes: places the field in the additional information / order notes area.
Setting the priority #
Priority is a plain number. The field with the lowest number in a section appears first. WooCommerce’s own core fields use spaced-out priorities, for example First name is 10, Last name is 20, and Email address is 110, so pick a number that lands your field where you want it. The default of 200 puts a new field after most core fields.
Theme not respecting the order? Some themes re-sort checkout fields. If your priority values are ignored, enable Force fields sort by priority on the General tab (alg_wc_ccf_force_sort_by_priority). See Exploring the advanced settings.
Get more fields #
