Adding Custom Post Types to Woocommerce

Question

Can you please let me know if there is any way to add your own Custom Post Type to Woocommerce and use that instead of using Woocommerce Product?

Thank

Answer 1

You can register a Custom Post Type regardless of WooCommerce. WooCommerce creates a "product" one so you wouldn't need that, but perhaps you want to create an "event" CPT for use with WooCommerce you can do that.

CPT Documenation

If you are planning on replacing the "product" CPT registered by WC then I would begin to question why are you using WC anyways? I suggest you make any additional CPT's you need as an extention of what WC does. Also you should study CPTs and variations, two completely different options/possible solutions for whatever you're trying to build. Variations are part of WC that offer some great options, where as CPT's are native to WP and have a very extensive ability; with them you can use woocommerce hooks to integrate with WC as needed.

Hope that helps, good luck!
