WooCommerce: Display Regular & Sale Price @ Cart Table

In my opinion, the WooCommerce Cart table is somewhat confusing. Why isn’t the “sale price” displayed there? Well, this is a mystery!

I’m pretty confident that showing the “slashed” price would actually help your conversion rate.

So, what about 10 PHP lines in exchange for an increase in sales? Great! Here’s the snippet 🙂

   $slashed_price = $values['data']->get_price_html();
   $is_on_sale = $values['data']->is_on_sale();

Where to add custom code?

You should place custom PHP in functions.php and custom CSS in style.css of your child theme: where to place WooCommerce customization?

This code still works, unless you report otherwise. To exclude conflicts, temporarily switch to the Storefront theme, disable all plugins except WooCommerce, and test the snippet again: WooCommerce troubleshooting 101

    First of all, I really appreciate what you do! This really seems like something that should be built into Woocommerce. I’ve been using this snippet and it works great, but today I was sent an error about it from WordPress. Everything still looks fine but this is the error in case you have any idea what, if anything, I should do about it:
    =============
    An error of type E_ERROR was caused in line 20 of the file /home/treechic/httpdocs/wp-content/themes/storefront-treechic/functions.php.

      Thanks Emily. Just tested and got no error. Maybe you could simply put a check (untested):

       if ( ! $values['data'] ) return $price;

    Hi Rodolfo,

    It works great, but I wonder how this can be done in the mini-cart? As far as I can see, the hook there is exactly the same as this one, but somehow it does not work.

    Any idea on why this might be? Thanks!

    Hi Rodolfo,

    Thanks for this great blog post. I tried your code and it worked.
    however, in the dropdown box of the cart from the head menu, the client now see two prices. ‘
    The original and discount.

    Shouldnt this dropdown box show the end price?

      Maybe yes this snippet might need a tweak to make it compatible with the cart widget. I’m afraid it’s custom work. If you’d like to get a quote, feel free to contact me here. Thanks a lot for your understanding!

    Hi Rodolfo,

    This snippet works only partially for me. While the initial price is now visible as intended it is displayed without being slashed. My only CSS affects color & weight. Do you have any idea of what could be wrong ?

    Reply
    1. Rodolfo Melogli

      Hey Thibault, thanks for your comment! Somewhere in your CSS there is probably a call that targets “del” (a slashed part) and hides the slash. Maybe 🙂 Unfortunately this is custom to your theme so I can’t help here. Thanks!

    Hi Rodolfo,

    I’d like to display the sale price of a product before the regular (discount) price. I know this has something to do with get_price_html. By default, this outputs something like:

    regular price
    sale price

    I want to change the output so it looks like this (basically, the two prices are shown in a different order):

    sale price
    regular price

    How can I do this?

    Thank you!

      Hey Andy, thanks so much for your comment and this is definitely not a stupid question! You can place this in your child theme’s functions.php file – if you need more guidance, please take a look at this video tutorial: https://businessbloomer.com/woocommerce-customization-hangout/

        1. Rodolfo Melogli

          Hey Andrew – yes you can add it anywhere but I recommend to put it at the very bottom, before the closing line “?>” if it’s there. You don’t need to remove anything 🙂

          If it’s the first time for you, make sure you have a backup of your functions.php and FTP access so you can fix things immediately if anything goes wrong.

          Hope this helps!

    Hello, how can you do this in the backend and in the emails that go out? Currently if the email goes out to our warehouse, they dont know if it has been discounted and only see £7.99 when the regular price is £9.99

      Hey Daniel, thanks for your comment! Yes, I took a look at the WooCommerce files and indeed Emails and Thank you page have different filters than the Cart page. I’m afraid I cannot provide a complementary fix here on the blog but I recommend you take a look at the order-details-item.php file in the templates folder 🙂 Hope this helps!

        Thanks for the support, do you find it strange that it reports the discounts across emails, 3rd party invoice software and the like when using the coupon system as standard, but doesn’t report this using the ‘sale discount’ system when selling one item?

    Hi Rodolfo,

    How do I style these value (price sale, slashed price) , like make it bold and smaller for example.

    I tried to put the “strong” tag on your code but somehow it didnt work.

    Thank you

    Reply
    1. Rodolfo Melogli

      Hey Drake, thanks for your feedback! So, to add a style to the price you’d need to “inspect element” or use “firebug” depending on what browser you need. Those prices should have a CSS class and you can then use that in your custom.CSS. If you don’t know the basics of CSS I strongly recommend to take a look at https://www.w3schools.com/css/ because CSS is a LOT of fun! Let me know 🙂
