I am trying to incorporate static block in cart-checkout.php template, but having problems to display it.

I am using <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[block id=””]’);?> but it brakes template and won’t show anything. Although for other shortcodes it’s working and doing it’s job.

Any ideas?

Ok, it seems it’s working with simple text blocks. I am trying to use static block which is created using Visual Composer shortcodes. Is there a way do make it work that way?

There was something conflicting my custom block data. It works now. I think topic can be deleted as it’s resolved

I do have a question if you don’t mind

I am trying to modify template and split content in form-checkout.php in two columns, but I want to remain “checkout-steps-nav” on top of my columns.

What are the rules if I want to use certain form-checkout content between shortcodes? For example –
<?php echo do_shortcode(‘[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″] * checkout fields * [/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][block id=””][/vc_column][/vc_row]’);?>

If I just paste * checkout field * related content between sortcodes it doesn’t work. How would I insert it then?

Sure, here are screenshots

This is what I have currently by using visual composer columns in checkout page

This is what I want to achieve (I think the only way is to make changes in cart-checkout.php)

I thought I could use <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″] * checkout fields * [/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][block id=””][/vc_column][/vc_row]‘);?> in cart-checkout.php and leave “checkout-steps-nav” first and put everything else in * checkout fields * in 2nd column.

Hello,

Sorry, but editing woocommerce file won’t resolve the issue as you’ve added Checkout form via Static Block.
Navigation steps will be centered in full width row, not in the column.

Best regards,
Jack Richardson.

I know I have added now checkout form via static block. It’s not the case.

Also no questions how to add static block to form-checkout.php , as <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[block id=””]‘);?> does the job

What I am asking, is how to ad php content between shortcodes. I could use <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″] * checkout fields * [/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][block id=””][/vc_column][/vc_row]‘);?> in cart-checkout.php and leave “checkout-steps-nav” first and put everything else in * checkout fields * in 2nd column.

Then I would just use [woocommerce_checkout] in my checkout page and it will load cart-checkout.php as I want
