WooCommerce VAT number validation in checkout (roadmap)

We had to start somewhere! What do you think we should develop next? – Write to us at support@rommel.dk if you have any ideas or features you’d like to see in this plugin.

Customize the plugin via PHP filters

Use this code if you need to validate VAT number fields on other pages than the checkout in WooCommerce. Note that ajax loaded fields are not supported.

add_filter('r_wc_validate_vat_number_enable', function() {
return true;
});

Additional fields which should be validated (could be dynamic fields)

It’s possible to add a list of fields to validate by a PHP filter which could help you validate fields added dynamically. You will need to use a filter and add custom selectors which are either classes or ids on the input field that should be validated.

add_filter('r_wc_validate_vat_number_inputSelectors', function( $selectors ) {
return array_merge($selectors, [
'.this-class-should-be-validated',
'#thisIdShouldBeValidated'
]);});
