[Resolved] Can toolset customize the add to cart to add multiple fields.

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The user would like to customize the add-to-cart process with Toolset by adding some fields to a product single page.

Solution:
Toolset plugins have no way to integrate into it and will probably never have. Instead, Toolset Views and Forms for WooCommerce allow to register users or content and charge a fee for it. That is the workflow we support.

- https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/front-end-forms/using-cred-commerce-to-add-payments-to-forms/

To hook into the add-to-cart workflow, it will need custom code to push some fields in the add-to-cart form. IMHO, I can use one or more Toolset Views and integrate them using custom code into the add-to-cart workflow.
Then, I can use Views to display orders and the orders items fields.

Personally, I would not try to create this workflow with Toolset when there are plenty of plugins that do the job, there are also some great free plugins. Below a couple that has more than 10000 installs:

- https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-extra-product-options/

And below a premium plugin from the same team behind WooCommerce:

Another feature of the other plugin is the ability to create field groups linked to Woocommerce Add to Cart - for example, Users can submit information through form when they purchase the product so it is linked to the Add to Cart- see screenshots.

Is it possible to do this using Toolset?

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

The add-to-cart workflow is a bit tricked. Toolset plugins have no way to integrate into it and will probably never have. Instead, Toolset Views and Forms for WooCommerce allow to register users or content and charge a fee for it. That is the workflow we support.
