Hi there,

Im trying to customize the checkout billing fields by adding a VAT field after company field. Tested the code on a different theme and its working but not on XStoretheme. I cant seem to override the fields. Below is the part of code im trying in child theme functions.php (I know how to handle validation and saving).
```
add_action( 'woocommerce_before_order_notes', 'add_vat_checkout_field' );
function add_vat_checkout_field( $checkout ) { 
   $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
   $saved_vat_no = $current_user->vat_no;
   woocommerce_form_field( 'vat_no', array(        
      'type' => 'text',        
      'label' => 'VAT Number',        
      'placeholder' => '12345678',        
      'required' => true,        
      'default' => $saved_vat_no,        
   ), $checkout->get_value( 'vat_no' ) ); 
}
```
