Adding Custom Registration Fields To WooCommerce Checkout

When using Woocommerce, there are fields by default that are used to capture users’ details during registration. These can include personal details, billing and shipping details, etc.

ProfilePress has a new feature that allows you to add custom registration fields to the Woocommerce checkout. This enables you to collect more information from your buyers and your customers can view and manage their account information from a ProfilePress’s frontend edit profile form or the account page.
