[Support request] How to disable the Bid now and Add to Cart Buttons on the Wocommerce Shop Page?

[bluebit]

On my homepage which also is the woocommerce shop page, how can I remove or disable the bid now and add to cart buttons?

[David]

Hi there,

you can add this PHP snippet:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
    remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', 'woocommerce_template_loop_add_to_cart');
} );

https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

i added the snippet and its not working

[David]

Where did you add the snippet ?

[bluebit]

to a plugin called custom snippets

[David]

Odd – i edited the code above – try that instead.

[bluebit]

hmm doesn’t work either

[David]

Are you using any extra woo plugins ? They may be messing with the add to cart function.

[bluebit]

I’m using an auction plugin, maybe that is doing something, this one: https://ignitewoo.com/woocommerce-extensions-plugins-themes/woocommerce-auctions/

[David]

Well its doing something alright – if you disable that plugin temporarily does the code then work ? Least then we can pin down where the issue is

[bluebit]

yes deactivating the plugin temporarily makes it work, so what do I do now, because i need it to work with the plugin activated

[David]

You would need to ask the plugin author as they provide no documentation and without the plugin i can’t see what function they are calling.

If they’re unhelpful then you can install the Simply Show Hooks plugin. Visit the archive page and activate it from the Admin Bar you should be able to see the Hook name ( same as above ) and when hovered over the list of functions it calls. With that info we may be able to help

[bluebit]

the plugin author is super slow in responding, i installed the Simple Show Hooks plugin and can see https://imgur.com/a/o6WQKhB

Not sure but try:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
    remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_shop_loop_item', array( 'IgniteWoo_Auctions', 'loop_add_to_cart'),10);
} );

[bluebit]

that didnt work, i think maybe its the ignitewoo add to cart loop that you can see in the screenshot, maybe its possible to disable that or to give it less priority?
