php - WooCommerce: Disabling checkout fields with a filter hook -

i have try disable "required" property of several checkout fields @ same time using woocommerce_checkout_fields filter hook, no success.

plugins not working either. code:

// hook in add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , 'custom_override_checkout_fields' );  // our hooked in function - $fields passed via filter! function custom_override_checkout_fields( $fields ) { $fields['billing']['billing_address_1']['required'] = false; $fields['billing']['billing_address_2']['required'] = false;  $fields['billing']['billing_postcode']['required'] = false; $fields['billing']['billing_city']['required'] = false; $fields['billing']['billing_phone']['required'] = false;       return $fields; } 

what wrong?
how can achieve this?

you need use unset() function purpose , can do-it way:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , 'custom_override_checkout_fields' );  function custom_override_checkout_fields( $fields ) {     unset($fields['billing']['billing_address_1']);     unset($fields['billing']['billing_address_2']);     unset($fields['billing']['billing_postcode']);     unset($fields['billing']['billing_city']);     unset($fields['billing']['billing_phone']);     return $fields; } 

you need paste code in function.php file located in active child theme or theme.

you have changed question an update: here new answer

making address fields optional (regarding update):

you have use different filter hook purpose. there 2 different filter hooks:

1) billing fields:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_billing_fields', 'wc_optional_billing_fields', 10, 1 ); function wc_optional_billing_fields( $address_fields ) {     $address_fields['billing_address_1']['required'] = false;     $address_fields['billing_address_2']['required'] = false;     $address_fields['billing_postcode']['required'] = false;     $address_fields['billing_city']['required'] = false;     $address_fields['billing_phone']['required'] = false;     return $address_fields; } 

2) shipping fields:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_shipping_fields', 'wc_optional_shipping_fields', 10, 1 ); function wc_optional_shipping_fields( $address_fields ) {     $address_fields['shipping_phone']['required'] = false;     return $address_fields; }

to make address fields required:

you can use same hooks , functions above, changing each field false true.

you need paste code in function.php file located in active child theme or theme.
