1 of 5 measures had too little evidence to score. They are left out of the total rather than counted as zero — otherwise a plugin would be marked down for being small rather than for being poorly kept.Measured 2026-08-02 from the WordPress.org plugin registry.

Checkout & Store Toolkit for WooCommerce is a lightweight collection of practical store-management features for merchants who want a faster checkout and fewer single-purpose plugins.

The plugin started as Remove Checkout Fields for WooCommerce. Version 2 keeps the existing WordPress.org plugin slug and automatically migrates the settings used by current installations.

WooCommerce Checkout Block support

Many older checkout-field plugins only modify the classic [woocommerce_checkout] shortcode. This plugin also supports the modern WooCommerce Checkout Block by using WooCommerce address locale data and Store API-compatible validation.

WooCommerce currently uses a shared address-field schema for billing and shipping inside Checkout Block. The settings screen clearly separates:

Classic billing fields
Classic shipping fields
Checkout Block fields shared by both addresses

Country remains available in Checkout Block because WooCommerce may need it for address rules, taxes, shipping, fraud checks, and payment gateways.

Common WooCommerce problems this plugin solves

Remove unnecessary billing or shipping fields from classic checkout
Hide, require, or make address and phone fields optional in Checkout Block
Simplify checkout for virtual products, downloads, free orders, or selected products
Set a minimum order subtotal without blocking normal Block cart updates
Redirect shoppers after adding a product or when viewing an empty cart
Show a free-shipping threshold message on classic cart and checkout pages
Hide SKU, category, tag, or related-product output on standard product templates
Auto-complete paid orders that contain only virtual or downloadable-and-virtual products
Replace several small WooCommerce snippet plugins with one settings-driven toolkit

Checkout field manager

Set supported fields to WooCommerce default, hidden, optional, or required:

First name
Last name
Company
Country / Region
Street address
Address line 2
Town / City
State / County
Postcode / ZIP
Phone

Conditional checkout rules

Apply field changes:

On every checkout
Only when no shipping is needed
Only when every product is downloadable
Only for free orders
When cart subtotal is above or below an amount
When the cart contains selected product IDs
When the cart contains selected product categories

Cart and checkout tools

Hide classic order notes
Disable coupon entry
Add a classic checkout notice
Enforce a minimum order subtotal in classic checkout and Checkout Block
Redirect customers to cart, checkout, or a custom URL after add to cart

Show a free-shipping progress message on classic cart and checkout templates

Product page tools

Customize add-to-cart text on shop and archive pages
Customize add-to-cart text on single-product pages
Hide SKU

Hide product tags
Disable related products

Order workflow tools

Compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS)

Store administration

Automatic legacy setting migration

Settings JSON export and import
Safe reset that does not delete original version 1.x option keys
Optional cleanup of version 2 settings on uninstall while preserving legacy options

Data and privacy

The plugin does not send store, customer, order, or settings data to an external service. It does not use remote APIs or tracking scripts.

Why did the old plugin stop removing fields?

The original plugin used the woocommerce_checkout_fields filter, which applies to classic shortcode checkout. WooCommerce made Cart and Checkout Blocks the default for new stores, and the Checkout Block intentionally does not use that classic field filter. Version 2 adds a separate Checkout Block-compatible field path.

Will my existing field-removal settings be lost?

No. During the upgrade, the plugin reads the original wc_remove-checkout-fields_* options and copies them into the new settings structure. The original options are not deleted.

Can the existing WordPress.org plugin slug be renamed?

The display name can be updated, but an approved WordPress.org plugin normally keeps its existing repository slug. Keeping the slug also preserves updates for current users.

Does it support both classic checkout and Checkout Block?

Yes for checkout-field visibility and requirement rules. Some presentation features, such as the custom checkout notice, order-notes removal, and free-shipping progress notice, are marked as classic-template features in the settings screen.

Why are Checkout Block billing and shipping fields not separate?

WooCommerce currently applies one shared core address-field schema to both billing and shipping in Checkout Block. Classic checkout still supports separate billing and shipping field settings.

Can I remove the email field?

No. Customer email is intentionally protected because WooCommerce uses it for order communication and payment gateways may rely on it.

Is removing address fields always safe?

No. Tax calculation, shipping rates, card verification, fraud detection, invoicing, and payment gateways may require address data. Test production-mode payment gateways and all supported customer countries before removing required address fields.

Does minimum order amount work with Checkout Block?

Yes. The plugin validates classic cart and checkout requests, and uses WooCommerce’s checkout-only Store API validation hook when Checkout Block submits an order. Ordinary Block cart updates are not rejected while the shopper is still building the cart.

Is the plugin HPOS compatible?

Yes. It uses WooCommerce order APIs and declares compatibility with High-Performance Order Storage.

Does the plugin collect analytics or connect to an external service?

No.
