Ever wish you could show or hide checkout form fields based on customer interaction?
Showing only relevant form fields during checkout ensures you don’t scare away your customers with too many fields when they buy your product. Plus, it enables you to collect all the information you need without having to worry about cart abandonment.
Today, we’re pushing out an update to our Checkout Fields Manager add-on. With this release (Checkout Fields Manager 2.2), not only can you dynamically update the checkout form, but it also secures the form from spam and abuse.
Let’s take a detailed look…
Smart Conditional Logic: Update Checkout Fields on the Fly
Easy Digital Downloads’ Checkout Field Manager lets you create a smart dynamic checkout form that enables you to collect ALL the relevant information you need from your customers.
With its smart conditional logic, your checkout form will dynamically show or hide fields based on customers’ selection and behavior while buying your product.
You can choose to show or hide the fields based on the following:
Number of items in cart: The number of products added to the cart
Cart subtotal: Total amount before discount
Cart total: Total amount after discount
Downloads in or not in cart: Show or hide fields when a certain product is added or not added to the cart
User is logged in or not logged in: Display/hide fields based on the logged in status
User role: Show/hide fields based on WordPress user roles, such as admin, subscriber, editor, and more.
There are many possible use cases of conditional logic in the checkout. For example, you can choose to show the file upload field if a customer purchases a certain product, ask for additional information if a customer hasn’t logged in, or prompt customers to agree to Terms & Conditions if the cart subtotal is less than a certain amount.
Conditional logic supports most field types, except for the core field items that are required like first name, last name, and user email.
reCAPTCHA v3: Secure Your Checkout From Spam and Abuse
Previously, if you enabled reCAPTCHA security on your checkout form, your customers will have to click the “I am not a robot” checkbox or even complete an image recognition challenge.
Checkout Fields Manager 2.2 supports reCAPTCHA v3, which is invisible, so your customers won’t see the reCAPTCHA field in your checkout form. That means you can combat bots and spam while also offering a frictionless checkout experience to humans.
We’re excited about this update and are continually striving to make selling digital products in WordPress as easy as possible.
