What it does

The default Easy Digital Downloads checkout collects a fixed set of details, which may not match what your business needs. Some stores want extra information from buyers, such as a company name, a project date or a file. Others want a shorter form with fewer fields. EDD - Checkout Fields Manager handles both cases by letting you build the checkout form around your own requirements, using a drag and drop interface instead of custom code.

You choose from field types like text boxes, dropdowns, checkboxes and date pickers, then place them on the form. Conditional logic can show or hide a field based on another field's value, so buyers only see what applies to them. Validation rules check entries during checkout. Custom field data also appears on the admin Add Order screen and on receipt pages, and you can export your field setup to reuse on another Easy Digital Downloads site.

Questions about EDD - Checkout Fields Manager

Does this plugin work without Easy Digital Downloads?

No. It is built as an extension for Easy Digital Downloads and manages that plugin's checkout form, so you need an Easy Digital Downloads store for it to be useful.

Can I show a field only when a customer picks a certain option?

Yes. Conditional logic lets you display or hide a field based on the value of another field. For example, a follow-up question can appear only after a customer ticks a specific checkbox or chooses a dropdown option.

Where can I see the information customers enter in custom fields?

Custom field data shows on receipt pages, and your custom fields also appear on the admin Add Order screen, so you can view and fill them in when creating orders manually.

Can I let customers upload a file at checkout?

Yes, file upload is among the available field types. Alongside it you can use text boxes, dropdowns, checkboxes and date pickers to collect other kinds of information.
