The following code will hide billing_options
custom optional checkout field when the selected payment method is Cash on delivery (“cod”):
// Conditional Show hide checkout fields based on chosen payment methods
add_action( 'wp_footer', 'conditionally_show_hide_billing_custom_field' );
function conditionally_show_hide_billing_custom_field(){
// Only on checkout page
if ( is_checkout() && ! is_wc_endpoint_url() ) :
?>
<script>
jQuery(function($){
var a="input[name="payment_method"]",
b = a + ':checked',
c="#billing_options_field"; // The checkout field <p> container selector
// Function that shows or hide checkout fields
function showHide( selector="", action = 'show' ){
if( action == 'show' )
$(selector).show( 200, function(){
$(this).addClass("validate-required");
});
else
$(selector).hide( 200, function(){
$(this).removeClass("validate-required");
});
$(selector).removeClass("woocommerce-validated");
$(selector).removeClass("woocommerce-invalid woocommerce-invalid-required-field");
}
// Initialising: Hide if choosen payment method is "cod"
if( $(b).val() !== 'cod' )
showHide( c, 'hide' );
else
showHide( c );
// Live event (When payment method is changed): Show or Hide based on "cod"
$( 'form.checkout' ).on( 'change', a, function() {
if( $(b).val() !== 'cod' )
showHide( c, 'hide' );
else
showHide( c );
});
});
</script>
<?php
endif;
}
Code goes in function.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). tested and works.
