    Hello,
    I’m using 8Theme checkout page (not the clasic woocommcerce).

    After spending a few hours customizing the styles, i came to the conclusion that i cannot add extra fields to my needs. Why is that? Both Checkout field editor and Flexible Checkout Fields plugins don’t seem to work.

    The extra fields are added in the addresses in My Account, but not in checkout. Is your theme not comptabile with this plugins?

    I use your theme for multiple websites, its the first time i try the new version of cart and checout and the situation is very frustrating.

    What solutions do you have to edit the checkout fields?

    Is it maybe because the fields IDs are billing-input and not billing_input?

    Checkout field editor plugin doesn’t seem to “see” the billing and shipping inputs.

    The standard billing ID’s are billing_name, billing_etc, in your theme are named billing-… And also the name tag is missing.

    Flexible Checkout Fields team response is this:

    You have WooCommerce Blocks enabled on your checkout page, and our plugin isn’t integrated with this mechanism yet. The addition of this feature is reported to programmers, but we do not know the date of its implementation.

    I will add you to the list of customer interested in this functionality and I will inform you when it happens.

    Meanwhile, you can bypass it, by deleting WooCommerce Blocks from your checkout page. Navigate to Pages > All Pages > Checkout and add [WooCommerce_Checkout] shortcode.

    So, yeah…classic version remains…
