Easy Digital Downloads Checkout Fields Manager Addon 2.2.1

The Easy Digital Downloads (EDD) Checkout Fields Manager Add-on is a premium extension that gives you complete control over the fields displayed on your EDD checkout page.

Its main function is to allow you to add, manage, and conditionally display custom fields using an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, helping you collect specific information relevant to your products or services.

🔑 Key Features of Checkout Fields Manager (CFM)

1. Drag-and-Drop Form Builder

Easy Interface: Manage all checkout fields (including default ones) from a simple drag-and-drop interface under Downloads → Checkout Form.

Field Types: Provides a wide array of field types, including:

Text/Textarea

Dropdown/Select Box

Radio Buttons/Checkboxes

Date/Time

File Upload (useful for custom orders/mock-ups)

URL

Terms and Conditions checkbox

VAT field with validation

2. Advanced Conditional Logic

This is a key feature, allowing you to create dynamic checkout forms:

Cart Contents: Show or hide a field based on which specific product(s) or product category is in the customer's cart (e.g., only ask for a company name if a "Business License" product is purchased).

User Information: Set rules based on the customer's logged-in status or user role.

Field Dependency: Make one field appear only after a certain value is selected in a preceding field (e.g., if "Yes" is selected for "Need customization?").

3. Data Management and Storage

Storage Location: You choose where the customer's input is stored:

Payment Meta: Data specific to that single order (most common).

User Meta: Data tied to the user's account, which can then be pre-filled on future checkouts.

Data Visibility: The collected custom field data is automatically accessible to you in the Payment History details page and can be included in customer purchase receipt emails and admin sales notification emails using template tags.

CSV Export: You can include custom field values when exporting your customer records.

4. Use Cases

This add-on is perfect for:

Collecting Business Information: Asking for a Company Name or VAT/Tax ID number.

Custom Service Orders: Adding a File Upload field for customers to submit a sketch, mock-up, or project brief when purchasing a design service.

Lead Capture: Adding a "How did you hear about us?" dropdown to track marketing channels.

Order Instructions: Providing a dedicated "Special Requests" or "Order Notes" text area.

The Checkout Fields Manager is typically included with the Professional Pass or the All Access Pass for Easy Digital Downloads.
