Wordpress / WooCommerce Custom Product type

I have made a Custom Product type for Woo commerce, only problem is getting it to work.

i've added a filter for the Product type and it appears in the Dropdown box, however when i click it , it has no boxes other than the SKU .

Is there a certain location that the file has to go that im missing? As i have currently just lobbed it with the other product type files.

Thanks for any help you may give

After you add the product class, you also have to manipulate the meta-boxes for the General tab on the product setup pages. The Price box is there, it is just initially hidden unless the product type is "simple" or "external"

There are a few ways to do this. One (not recommended) is to edit the html-variation-admin.php file directly and add "show_if_customproduct" to the price group div.

<div class="options_group pricing show_if_simple show_if_external">

becomes this:

<div class="options_group pricing show_if_simple show_if_external show_if_customproduct">

Another (better) is to add some javascript by calling the woocommerce_product_options_general_product_data action:

add_action('woocommerce_product_options_general_product_data','showType');

function showType(){
  echo "<script>jQuery('.show_if_simple').addClass('show_if_customproduct');</script>";
}

That will turn all "simple" product boxes on for "customproduct" boxes in the general section.

Or, your action can just echo a new div with new boxes, set the div class to "show_if_customproduct," and copy the initial content from the group price div in the html_variations file.

You'll also likely have to add templates for the pages, at the very least to get an "add to cart" buttom. Look under templates/single-product to get the idea.

First of all you need to create a class for your custom product type. Let say it is CustomProduct

class WC_Product_CustomProduct extends WC_Product{
    public function __construct( $product ) {
        $this->product_type = 'CustomProduct';
        parent::__construct( $product );
    }
}

and you will put this class under includes/ folder. After that, you need to activate this product type;

add_filter( 'product_type_selector', 'add_custom_product_type' );
function add_custom_product_type( $types ){
    $types[ 'CustomProduct' ] = __( 'Custom Product' );
    return $types;
}

Add this to functions.php
