Page Shortcodes

WooCommerce cannot function properly without a cart, checkout, and account area configured somewhere on your site. These shortcodes add those areas to pages on your site.

Starting with WooCommerce version 8.3, the Cart and Checkout Blocks are the default for new installations. Currently there is not a block based alternative for displaying the My Account area.

Note: We now recommend using the new conversion optimized cart and checkout blocks that are available as WooCommerce Blocks. Though in some cases the shortcode versions will have better compatibility with extensions.

woocommerce_cart – shows the cart page
woocommerce_checkout – shows the checkout page
woocommerce_my_account – shows the user account page
woocommerce_order_tracking – shows the order tracking form

In most cases, the necessary shortcodes will be added to pages automatically via our setup wizard and do not need to be added manually.

Cart

↑ Back to top

Used on the cart page, the cart shortcode displays cart content, interface for coupon codes and other basic order information.

[woocommerce_cart]

Checkout

↑ Back to top

Used on the checkout page, the checkout shortcode displays the checkout process.

[woocommerce_checkout]

My Account

↑ Back to top

Shows the ‘my account’ area where the currently logged in customer can view past orders and update their information. Guests who aren’t logged in will see a sign in form. As well as a registration form if you have it enabled in your accounts & privacy settings. Currently there is not a block based alternative for displaying the My Account area.

[woocommerce_my_account]

Order Tracking Form

↑ Back to top

Lets a user see the status and details of an order by entering their order number and billing email. This is helpful for guest who don’t have an account on with your store but unlike the cart, checkout, and my account shortcodes (or blocks), it is not required. Here is an example of it being used on the My Account page for guests:

[woocommerce_order_tracking]

*[woocommerce_order_tracking] added to the “My Account” page.*

Product Page

↑ Back to top

Show a full single product page by ID or SKU. This is helpful if you want to add a product to a page other than the shop page, for example, a post about a new product (replace xx and xxx with the actual product number or sku):

[product_page id="xx"]

[product_page sku="xxx"]

*How the single product page appears on a post*
